Seminar Title

Freud for Thinking Clinicians

Seminar description
In this case-based seminar, we will seek supervision from “Freud” himself, as we can glean his ideas from his clinical writings. Following a Friday night introduction to some of Freud’s fundamental clinical concepts, we will use three of the four remaining 2.5-hour blocks of time to juxtapose a close reading of selected writings by Freud with a case presentation, aiming to articulate how the theory and the case discussion inform, enhance and challenge each other. The course will end with a short workshop in which participants will at least begin to articulate the clinical theories that are implicit in their own work with patients. In order to encourage theory-building in each person’s particular clinical idiom, we will contrast four versions of the same phenomenon by Freud, Winnicott, Bion and Lacan, to appreciate how differences in tone, emphasis and sensibility lead to new insights.

Readings

We will read the clinical papers of Freud, plus selected other papers that discuss his ideas about dreams and parapraxes, the psychology of love, gender and death. We will supplement this list by reference, on the last day of the class, to short readings by Bion, Freud, Winnicott and Lacan
