The Fantasy/Animation Footnotes complete their unofficial ‘psychoanalysis trilogy' with this look at object relations and a branch of psychoanalytic approaches to film that emerged as a competing way of thinking about cinema linked to the development of the conscious minds of children. Listen as Alex takes Chris through the contributions of the British Psychoanalytical Society and the influential work of Melanie Klein and D. W. Winnicott; the value of unconscious fantasies, creativity, and what it means to theorise play; cinema as a potentially “transitional” (and cultural) object that we can use to fantasise with; using object relations theory to think about what kind of object a film might be, and the specificity of fantasy filmmaking as ‘extra transitional'; and what a focus on objects says about how children can and do formulate relationships to the world. **Fantasy/Animation theme tune composed by Francisca Araujo** **As featured on Feedspot's 25 Best London Education Podcasts**
The hosts of Ordinary Unhappiness join the podcast to discuss D. W. Winnicott; one of the most influential figures in the history of psychoanalysis in Britain. They explain how Winnicott's work was shaped by the traumatizing effects of World War 2, debates between Anna Freud and Melanie Klein, and the place of mothers in the construction of the British welfare state. We also discuss how this history relates to contemporary struggles over social reproduction and care.Abby Kluchin is Assistant Professor of Philosophy and Religious Studies at Ursinus College in Pennsylvania, where she coordinates the Gender, Women's, and Sexuality Studies program.

What happens when the ego fails to form a symbol? In this episode of Acid Horizon, we're joined by Dr. Ben Morsa, a clinical psychologist and psychoanalytic thinker working at the intersection of queer theory, neurodiversity, and mental health. Together, we dive into Melanie Klein's pivotal essay The Importance of Symbol Formation, examining how sadism, fantasy, and ego development shape our early psychic life. We explore Klein's controversial case of “Dick” and how her analysis anticipates modern discussions of autism, while also considering the implications of her work through the lens of Deleuze and Guattari. Dr. Morsa offers critical insight into the enduring tensions between diagnosis, subjectivity, and the symbolic order—and asks whether the failure to symbolize might offer a form of resistance rather than pathology. This episode is a rich synthesis of psychoanalysis, philosophy, and the radical potentials of care.Connect with Ben's work: www.tidepools.orgSupport the showSupport the podcast:https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/Linktree: https://linktr.ee/acidhorizonAcid Horizon on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/acidhorizonpodcast Boycott Watkins Media: https://xenogothic.com/2025/03/17/boycott-watkins-statement/ Join The Schizoanalysis Project: https://discord.gg/4WtaXG3QxnSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438Merch: http://www.crit-drip.comSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438 LEPHT HAND: https://www.patreon.com/LEPHTHANDHappy Hour at Hippel's (Adam's blog): https://happyhourathippels.wordpress.comRevolting Bodies (Will's Blog): https://revoltingbodies.comSplit Infinities (Craig's Substack): https://splitinfinities.substack.com/Music: https://sereptie.bandcamp.com/ and https://thecominginsurrection.bandcamp.com/

Melanie Klein's "Envy and Gratitude and Other Works
We all loved a movie, oh, actually Jack hated it.This is a perfect episode, you should listen to it. Aside from withering take downs of the myriad misreadings of Coralie Fargeat's new movie The Substance, we introduce you to the narcissistic split of the melancholic subject. Beginning with Freud and moving to Melanie Klein, we read this movie as a visceral portrayal of the infantile position that clamors for the good breast while being persecuted by the bad one. Andy discusses the metonymic qualities of the beautiful ideal object, the way the body tries to merge with the sign itself. Sagi, on his new "tender is the heart" kick, speaks about how the absence of the mother or motherhood creates a lack that explains the monstrous psychic desires and impersonality that destroys Elizabeth and Sue.Jake works with Andy on the Pervs R' Us ride, and then ends with a hypothesis via Marx Grudge that the Young Beautiful Woman is an ideal object that stalks us all.Enjoy.
Born at St. Vincent's Hospital in Greenwich Village on Nov. 11, 1954, Michael was adopted five weeks later by John and Eleanor Coffey, a corrections officer and an RN, respectively. The adoption was handled by the New York Foundling Hospital. John and Eleanor had been unable to have children.He was raised as an only child in a small town in the Adirondacks. By the time his parents told him overtly that he was adopted, at age 8, he already knew. Following the Foundling's recommendation, they had told him from the beginning that they had “chosen” him in a nursery with many other babies.Although they were loving parents, it seems they were also a bit distant—“hands-off.” Sadly, one of the few things they knew about Michael's birth parents was that they were college-educated, and it seemed to make them feel that he was of different and maybe better stock. Michael feels they tried to stay out of his way. Although Michael had what he calls a perfectly happy childhood, there was something missing. After much soul-searching and research, he believes there might be an element of containment missing, a term used by Melanie Klein and, later, Wilfred Bion, two prominent psychotherapists--containment being the provision of a safe space at a critical part of childhood development. Michael went off to college at Notre Dame, and spent his junior year in Dublin. College took care of him to a degree (the Notre Dame motto is in loco parentis—in place of parents). Leaving college, though, was a terrifying prospect, and two months after graduating he married a woman he had known for only four months. Michael studied Anglo-Irish literature at the University of Leeds in England; his wife and he had a son, Joshua. He earned his Master's degree. In 1978, the little family moved to New York City. Michael got a job in publishing and, settled, he wrote to the New York Founding, which was just 15 blocks from their walk-up apartment. A Sister Phelps provided him with “background information but not identifying information.” His search for his parents began. He went down many dead-ends.At the age of 50, with the help of a private investigator, he discovered that both his birth parents were deceased; his father was a Gallagher, whose own father was from Donegal, Ireland; and his mother, indeed Virginia, was fourth-generation Irish-American from a Co. Mayo family. She was a one-time Broadway actress and cabaret singer in Manhattan when he was conceived. His father, Robert Michael Gallagher, was driving a cab in New York and writing poetry at the time. They both hailed originally from Philadelphia.Michael has written a memoir in which he traces these developments, emphasizing that, since he came of age, he has been looking and listening for traces, voices, and ghosts of lost birth parents, lost siblings, or half-siblings. He did find them, ghosts and real, but just as when John and Eleanor told him at age 8 that he was adopted when he already knew it, he says he also seemed to know who he was, and where he was from before the evidence was in. At this point in his life, he welcomes this as a measure of containment, a “safety in knowing.”Thank you to our Patreons! Join at the $10 level and be part of our monthly ADOPTEE CAFE community.

Abby and Patrick welcome Loren Dent, a clinical psychologist in the Lacanian tradition. The topic is psychosis, both as understood theoretically by Freud and Lacan, and also as experienced and encountered by real people in New York City, where Loren practices and where he has helped establish an innovative program of treatment and care. Starting by tackling a basic question – what is “psychosis?” – the three chart Freud's struggles to grasp psychotic phenomena, his messy efforts to make the notorious case of Judge Daniel Paul Schreber fit his theories about sex, and his late-career notion of “disavowal” as a mechanism of psychosis distinct from neurotic repression. Loren then describes how Jacques Lacan took this last concept, often translated as “foreclosure,” and integrated it with his own accounts of language, desire, and otherness. When taken together with therapeutic innovations by radical psychoanalytic thinkers like Félix Guattari, François Tosquelles, and Jean Oury, Lacan's insights, as Loren explains, lay the groundwork for a robust and efficacious approach to treating psychotic patients in ways that challenge traditional hierarchies in hospitals, group homes, and beyond. After walking Abby and Patrick through what talk therapy looks like with patients with psychosis, Loren outlines his recommendations for treatment and support in the clinic and beyond. As Loren explains, this approach goes against the grain of how psychotic patients have been processed by institutions under contemporary neoliberalism, and has grown only more urgently necessary in New York City under the mayorship of Eric Adams. It also forces us all to confront and manage our anxieties about “madness,” from which Freud himself was hardly immune, which haunt commonplace assumptions about normative behavior and market rationality, and which manifest in day-to-day acts of avoidance, confinement, neglect, and violence that people with psychosis encounter in urban life.Key texts cited in the episode:Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, Anti-OedipusBret Fimiani, Psychosis and Extreme States: An Ethic for TreatmentFreud, Civilization and its DiscontentsFreud, “Psychoanalytic Notes on An Autobiographical Account of a Case of Paranoia (Dementia Paranoides)”Nev Jones & Robyn Lewis Brown, “The absence of psychiatric C/S/X perspectives in academic discourse: Consequences and Implications.” Disability Studies Quarterly, 33(1).Darian Leader, What is Madness?Camille Robcis, Disalienation: Politics, Philosophy, and Radical Psychiatry in Postwar FranceStijn Vanheule, The Subject of Psychosis: A Lacanian PerspectiveFoundation for Community Psychoanalysis: https://www.communitypsychoanalysis.org/Fountain House: https://www.fountainhouse.org/The Greene Clinic: www.greeneclinic.com A podcast about psychoanalysis, politics, pop culture, and the ways we suffer now.

La sesión de Hablando de prioridades del 3 de julio del 2024 John Bowlby (1907 – 1990) fue un psicoanalista británico. Nació en 1907 en Londres. Fue quien formuló la teoría del apego en los sesenta, mediante la cual expuso que los problemas de salud mental y de comportamiento podrían atribuirse a la infancia temprana. Bowlby pertenecía a la clase alta inglesa, por lo que fue criado por nanas como se solía hacer en esta clase en el siglo veinte. En pocas ocasiones veía a sus padres. La niñera fue despedida cuando tenía 4 años , lo cual Bowlby describió como algo trágico. Habla de ello en su libro “Separación, ira y ansiedad” . A los siete fue enviado a un internado que detestaba. Estudió psicología en Cambrige y se dedicó a estudiar a los niños mal adaptados. Después continuó estudiando medicina . Fue consultor de la OMS. Publicó el informe “La atención materna y la salud mental”, para la Organización Mundial de la Salud, lo que impulsó reformas en cuanto a la crianza de los niños. También, inició su formación como psicoanalista en la Asociación Psicoanalítica Británica, con Joan Riviere como analista y Melanie Klein como supervisora. Tenía diferencias con su analista, Klein, quien enfatizaba la importancia de las fantasías infantiles hacia la madre, mientras Bolwby elaboraba su teoría, la cual ponía el énfasis en la historia de la relación entre el niño y su madre. Su teoría postula que el bebe nace con una tendencia natural a buscar lazos emocionales cercanos con las personas que lo rodean, con el fin de sobrevivir. Plantea que la necesidad de vínculos estables se expresa tempranamente a través de distintos modos de conducta que permiten establecer mecanismos de regulación del alejamiento / cercanía de sus figuras de cuidado. Pone el enfoque en el vínculo primario que en general es el lazo con la madre.

It's the most important election of our lifetimes (again). And to help navigate it all, Abby, Patrick, and Dan are launching a new series: Gerontophallocracy 2024. In this first installment, they outline the goals for the series, explain what the Goldwater Rule is and isn't, and unpack how psychoanalysis can help us get some purchase, if not on what's going on inside either candidate's head, then on how our society is collectively metabolizing the spectacle and stakes of the whole thing. They then look at Thursday's debate through the lens of psychic defense mechanisms in general and Melanie Klein's notion of “splitting” in particular. Splitting, they explain, is a fundamental concept for understanding not just what went down that night but how our media and political elites have subsequently reacted, and for starting to get a handle on our contemporary moment in all its mind-bending rhetorical and emotional dimensions.

Abby and Patrick welcome scholar and literary critic Rebecca Ariel Porte of Dilettante Army and the Brooklyn Institute for Social Research to talk about the key Freudian concept of the pleasure principle. Starting with Freud's 1911 essay, “Formulations Regarding Two Principles of Mental Functioning,” Rebecca, Abby, and Patrick probe the complicated question of what, exactly “pleasure” (German: Lust) means for Freud. At the end of the day, is “pleasure” simply the avoidance of pain, relative movement along a stimulus gradient, an object towards which we turn reflexively like sunflowers towards the sun, or something else? How does Freud's notion of pleasure relate, on the one hand, to its apparent opposite, AKA “unpleasure” (German: Unlust), and to the “reality principle” on the other? What is the status and function of the different ways we imagine pleasure and find pleasure in imagining, from daydreams to fantasies to “hallucinatory satisfactions” in general? Plus: what Freud's theories of pleasure miss and other analytic thinkers don't (with reference to Heinz Kohut and Melanie Klein); the relationship between ego instincts and sexual instincts; flights into illness and the meanings of neurosis; and a reading of an incredibly Freudian sequence in Milton's Paradise Lost!Rebecca's recent essay on Cixous is here: https://www.thenation.com/article/culture/helene-cixous-well-kept-ruins/Her recent essay on Proust in translation is here: https://www.bookforum.com/print/2904/a-new-translation-of-proust-s-late-masterpiece-25166The latest Dilettante Army is here: https://dilettantearmy.com/Dilettante Army merch is here: https://store.dilettantearmy.com/And her upcoming courses are available here: https://thebrooklyninstitute.com/current-courses/Have you noticed that Freud is back?

In this episode, Grant and Fara discuss the recent criticism that therapy has faced following the release of several publications, particularly "The Therapist Who Hated Me" by Michael Bacon. They delve into the dynamics of the therapist-patient relationship in various therapeutic approaches and the potential challenges that may arise. They emphasize that there is no universal solution for therapy and stress the importance of evaluating treatment options to find what works best for each individual. We hope you find this discussion insightful and enjoyable.Key Takeaways No treatment is perfect, it is important to evaluate what's happening in therapy.

Czy da się mieścić w sobie uczucie zazdrości i zachować integralność własnej tożsamości? Jak ma się zawiść do poczucia wadliwości? Czy warto konfrontować własne projekcje i mówić o zazdrości bez wstydu? I co na to wszystko tradycja psychoanalityczna? W #107 odcinku solowym opowiadam o zazdrości i zawiści, posiłkując się m.in. myśleniem psychoanalityczki Melanie Klein. Jest więc o rozwojowym aspekcie zazdrości i tym, jak uwydatnia to, co dla nas ważne. Poruszam też kwestie integracji afektu i pomieszczania w sobie zawistnych myśli z jednoczesnym byciem dobrym, życzliwym człowiekiem. Nie obeszło się też bez kwestii zazdrości w związku romantycznym i tego, że bazowy poziom zaufania dla wielu z nas jest praktycznie zerowy - nie bez powodu. A między te wątki wkradają się osobiste anegdoty z treningu interpersonalnego i doświadczeń nastoletniej kobiecej zazdrości. Zapraszam Was do odsłuchu! Wspomniana książka „Yellowface" Rebeki F.

Abby and Patrick are joined by academic, journalist, and critic Sara Marcus, author of the 2023 book Political Disappointment: A Cultural History from Reconstruction to the AIDS Crisis. After recalling their own experiences of political letdowns – infantile, adolescent, and all-too-recent – they explore how Sara's notion of disappointment as “untimely desire” involves something other than disillusionment or a loss of faith. Rather, as Marcus explains, disappointment involves an ongoing relationship towards an object, and can be a simultaneous opportunity for mourning, determination, creativity, and more. They unpack experiences of such disappointment across the twentieth century, tracking in particular their musical and audio archives – from the “Sorrow Songs” studied by W.E.B. DuBois to the exquisite nonverbals of Lead Belly to the monologues and Tracy Chapman bootlegs recorded by the artist and AIDS activist David Wojnarowicz. And they also get into the traps of utopianism, Melanie Klein, and the possibility of a “good enough” political subjectivity, with cameos by Fleetwood Mac, Bon Jovi, Peter Paul & Mary, and more along the way.

How do we invisibly transfer our emotions to others, and what magic lies in revealing this unseen dance? Projective identification is like unconsciously tossing our feelings into someone else, a behavior first noticed in babies with their moms. It's an invisible way we influence others based on our buried issues, avoiding dealing with our tough emotions by making others express them for us. Facing up to this pattern can help us understand ourselves better and grow. Often, this cycle kicks off with blaming others, triggering a domino effect that reveals deeper, hidden struggles within us. Prepare to discover…Melanie Klein's pivotal role in defining projective identification through her studies on infants and maternal interactions; when its relevant to personal dynamics and psychoanalysis; how projective identification works as a defense mechanism; what projective identification involves, its mechanisms, and its manifestations in daily relationships and therapy; where projective identification occurs, from personal to clinical contexts, highlighting its broad applicability; whether projective identification is conscious or unconscious; which theoretical perspectives and analysts contributed to the understanding of projective identification; why projective identification is significant in understanding human behavior, particularly in emotional communication, relationship dynamics, and therapeutic interventions…and so much more.

"The ability to play means we can indulge in a kind of illusion, not delusion, and make a distinction. It always amazes me that when the patient arrives, they like the routine of an analysis; nobody breaks that, it's an illusion; it is a piece of theater every time. We open the door to our patients and they lie on the couch, and yet there is something enormously gratifying as the patient works out their sense of reality from that illusory field. I think it is exactly what the mother is able to bring to the infant - this capacity to play and this capacity to continue to evolve beyond the analysis as an internalization of that experience of being listened to and being with someone. The details of that is related to an intrapsychic surviving and non- surviving object in the analyst who continues to think and feel and be with the patient in the consulting room.” Episode Description: Joel begins his conversation with Jan around Winnicott's conceptualization of aggression in development and in the analytic encounter. She noted that he had a very sophisticated developmental theory of aggression which culminated with the role that the destruction of the object plays in constituting reality. Jan explains that she has elaborated Winnicott's late theory of aggression with her notion of the ‘surviving object'. She distinguishes the 'surviving object' from the 'good object', especially as it stands apart from a moralizing position. She considers its internalization as an essential condition for healthy development. They discussed the role that insight continued to play for Winnicott after he emphasized the importance of the patient's experience in the analytic process. They also consider the ‘fear of woman' as a root of misogyny. After discussing the uniqueness of the analytic setting to facilitate play, fantasy, and “magic which is not psychosis,” Jan concludes by emphasizing the importance of in-person treatment in order to have an in vivo experience of the non-retaliatory analyst.

Abby, Patrick, and Dan conclude their adventure through Lacan's mirror stage! They reprise Lacan's parable of the mirror-besotted baby and tie together the many threads – theoretical, clinical, and philosophical – woven through it. They walk through how Lacan musters evidence for his argument using both cases of pathology (i.e. psychosis) and “normal” dreams and fantasies, and how his situating of alienation within the ego puts him at odds with other schools of psychoanalysis, specifically those associated with Anna Freud and Melanie Klein. They outline how Lacan's polemic against “ego psychology” expands from a critique of contemporary Anglophone psychoanalysis into a broader objection to schemes of social control and ideologies of “a freedom that is never so authentically affirmed as when it is within the walls of a prison.” Does Lacan's parable suggest any radical potential, and does it open up new ways for thinking about the inevitability, limits, and flexibility of identity claims in our own lives and our historical moment? They confront this question by unpacking the different senses of an “exit” to the mirror stage, and how Lacan's essay on the origins of subjectivity relates to the open question of where work of therapy ends and new possibilities of remaking ourselves and the world begin.Have you noticed that Freud is back?

Episode No. 629 features artist Alexandro Segade of My Barbarian, and a re-air of a 2013 conversation with artist Eleanor Antin. The Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego is presenting "Eleanor Antin and My Barbarian," a fiftieth anniversary celebration of Antin's landmark 100 Boots (1973). The exhibition also includes work featuring Antin's alter ego, the King of Solana Beach, and My Barbarian's Universal Declaration of Infantile Anxiety Situations Reflected in the Creative Impulse (2013), a feminist performance work that centers matrilineal creative inheritance. The work's title references the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which was co-authored by Eleanor Roosevelt in 1948, and Melanie Klein's 1929 essay "Infantile Anxiety Situations Reflected in a Work of Art and the Creative Impulse." Performers include Segade and his My Barbarian mates Malik Gaines and Jade Gordon, as well as artists Mary Kelly and Antin. "Eleanor Antin and My Barbarian is on view through February 18, 2024. My Barbarian's work has been presented at museums such as the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Hammer Museum, and the Museum of Modern Art, New York, and in a 2021-22 survey at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. This Bomb magazine interview between My Barbarian and Andrea Fraser was referenced on the program. For Antin images, see Episode No. 104.
"Instead of the analyst being in a position where they know something about the patient, they are with the patient. As Winnicott says in his late work, if you are a philosopher in your armchair, you have to come out of your armchair and be on the floor with the child playing. I don't think that one should act that out with an adult patient- however it is that approach to actually being with the patient, listening to the patient's words, listening to their state of mind without preconceived ideas. That's almost impossible, but Winnicott says that psychoanalysis is an objective study, an objective way of looking at things without preconceived ideas, without preconceived notions. It links with what you said about ‘normative' - if we go into the consulting room feeling that our patients need to be as we are or need to fit in some kind of norm, then I don't think this is psychoanalytic. I think it is against the whole aim of psychoanalysis.” Episode Description: Jan begins her conversation with Joel by sharing her background in theater and the steps she took to train as an analyst. She describes what drew her to Winnicott and how she sees him as broadening, not replacing, Freudian thinking. She distinguishes her understanding of Winnicott from others who believe that, by speaking of the importance of the environment, he minimized constitutional factors and the unconscious. She interprets what he meant by the environment in terms of the ‘psyche-body' and the mother's unconscious. Jan discusses a paradox in Winnicott in that he offers a positive theory of health while also being uniquely non-judgmental and non-pathologizing. She concludes with a controversial observation that a five times weekly in person training analysis is essential to achieve a deep regression that will familiarize analysts with the primitive parts of their personalities so they will be able to accept and deal with those parts of their patients' personalities.

We are always, in our programs, trying to get to the psychological and spiritual causes behind our physical and emotional problems. It's a journey that Norberto Keppe's Integral Psychoanalysis is well positioned to embark onKeppe has synthesized Freud's psychoanalytical methodology, Melanie Klein's observations on envy and gratitude, classical German psychiatric findings on megalomania and arrogance, Socrates' dialectics, and Aquinas' discussion of the perfect inner structure of man with his own discoveries of Inversion and psycho-socio pathology that lead us to oppose what's good in and around us.This, I think, is unique in his work: we are good by nature, by Creation, but we have attitudes against that constantly. And we need means of becoming conscious of that or it will dominate us.In today's episode, a fascinating conversation that leads a man to see that the family abuse he suffered he's now unconsciously continuing on himself because of a total blindness to his own weakness. Here's Dr. Claudia Bernhardt Pacheco to set the table.Click here to listen to this episode.

Abby and Patrick welcome novelist and literary critic Christine Smallwood, author of The Life of the Mind. They discuss the novel's protagonist Dorothy (who hires a second therapist to talk about her relationship with her first therapist) and Christine's approach to psychoanalysis as a framework for thinking about everyday life. Then they turn to Wilfred Bion's landmark 1961 book Experiences in Groups. They discuss the ways that group life and group experiences are frustrating and emotionally intense, from group chats to reading groups to classrooms to parties to military maneuvers; Bion's notion of the various “basic assumptions” that underlie every group; projection versus projective identification; and counter-transference as a source of genuine insight. Plus, Dan explains how Bion helped him life-hack (and exit) corporate America!You can find The Life of the Mind here:https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-life-of-the-mind-christine-smallwood/14793178 Links to some of Christine's recent writing mentioned in the episode are here: https://www.nybooks.com/articles/2023/04/06/the-exorcist-the-shards-bret-easton-ellis/https://www.nybooks.com/online/2023/04/06/poor-torvey-a-dolls-house/And here is a recent NYRB interview with her: https://www.nybooks.com/online/2023/04/22/infiltrating-literature-christine-smallwood/Have you noticed that Freud is back?

Sean Illing talks with Jonathan Lear, a psychoanalyst and philosopher, about his new book Imagining the End: Mourning and Ethical Life. How can we continue to live a good life in a world beset by catastrophe, crisis, and chaos? Sean and Jonathan discuss the role of imagination and culture in the ways we make meaning in the world, the idea of mourning as a confrontation with our uniquely human ability to love, and how to turn away from the path of despair, towards hope — and to what Lear calls "committed living towards the future."

Hollywood fantasy cinema is responsible for some of the most lucrative franchises produced over the past two decades, yet it remains difficult to find popular or critical consensus on what the experience of watching fantasy cinema actually entails. What makes something a fantasy film, and what unique pleasures does the genre offer? In Encountering the Impossible: The Fantastic in Hollywood Fantasy Cinema (SUNY Press, 2021) Alexander Sergeant solves the riddle of the fantasy film by theorizing the underlying experience of imagination alluded to in scholarly discussions of the genre. Drawing principally on the psychoanalysis of Melanie Klein and D. W. Winnicott, Sergeant considers the way in which fantasy cinema rejects Hollywood's typically naturalistic mode of address to generate an alternative experience that Sergeant refers to as the fantastic, a way of approaching cinema that embraces the illusory nature of the medium as part of the pleasure of the experience. Analyzing such canonical Hollywood fantasy films as The Wizard of Oz, It's a Wonderful Life, Mary Poppins, Conan the Barbarian, and The Lord of the Rings movies, Sergeant theorizes how fantasy cinema provides a unique film experience throughout its ubiquitous presence in the history of Hollywood film production. Encountering the Impossible has been shortlisted for the 2022 Best First Monograph Award presented by the British Association of Film, Television and Screen Studies Alexander Sergeant is Lecturer in Film and Media Studies at the University of Portsmouth. He is the coeditor (with Christopher Holliday) of Fantasy/Animation: Connections Between Media, Mediums and Genres, which was Runner Up for Best Collection at the 2019 BAFTSS (British Association for Television & Screen Studies) awards.

Tochter sein ein Leben lang. Schicksal, aber auch Chance, die Anna Freud genutzt hat. Keine kannte Sigmund Freud so wie sie. Ein schwieriger Balanceakt, den eigenen Weg zu finden, der doch so stark von ihm geprägt war. Eine unermüdliche Helferin für den kranken Vater und die ihr anvertrauten Patienten. Besonders den kleinen fühlte sie sich ein Leben lang verpflichtet. Die Kinderanalyse, die keineswegs als "Abklatsch" der klassischen Psychoanalyse zu sehen ist, bleibt mit ihr verbunden. In dem Verständnis, im Kind eben nicht den kleinen Erwachsenen zu sehen, ist sie auch ihrer "Konkurrentin" Melanie Klein um einiges voraus. Das englische Vorschulwesen ist stark von Anna Freud geprägt worden. Eine Seelen- und Sozialarbeiterin par excellence. (BR 2006)

When I finished my degree, I was actually very pessimistic - I had no idea that at close to age 55-56 that a psychoanalytic institute would even consider me but I did decide to take the leap and I ended up going to BPSI [Boston Psychoanalytic Society and Institute] and here I am." — Ellen Pinsky "The training time was a time of discovering - we read the authors I knew, and what was happening to me also at that moment, what kind of an analyst would I be during and after the training? My background encouraged me to go on - when it was difficult to go on searching for the truth, searching for the knowledge, but the knowledge about myself during the training and it went on in my actual training analysis." —Susana Merlo Episode Description: We discuss Susana's and Ellen's first careers in education and what led them "to wish to go deeper." They both describe the formative contributions of their own analyses as well as the influence of analytic writers that they valued. We consider the possible advantages and disadvantages of each of the many backgrounds that we bring to our clinical work and share conclusions about the similarities and differences in how we practice. We discuss some of their favorite writers and we conclude with their perspectives on the future of psychoanalysis both in the States and in Argentina. Our Guests: Susana Ruth Merlo is a member of APdeBA (Asociación Psicoanalítica de Buenos Aires, Argentina) and holds a position as an Associated Professor at IUSAM of APdeBA (Instituto Universitario de Salud Mental de APdeBA), where she teaches Introduction to the ideas of Melanie Klein and English School. She provided school psychological services in school settings for 15 years. At present provides therapy to children, adolescents, and adults in a private clinic setting. Susana holds two university degrees, School Psychology (1986) and Clinical Psychology (2007). Ellen Pinsky came to psychoanalysis as a second profession following 25 years as a middle school English teacher. She says her experience in the classroom with 12 and 13-year-olds taught her most of what she needed to know to become a credible clinician. She is the author of Death and Fallibility in the Psychoanalytic Encounter: Mortal Gifts. About her book, Thomas Ogden writes: “Mortal Gifts is a necessary book—necessary for analysts and necessary for the analyses they conduct. In it, Ellen addresses a long-neglected issue in the practice of psychoanalysis: the analyst's failure to include in the very fiber of the analysis the fact of his or her mortality.” In 2014 she was awarded BPSI's Deutsch Prize for her essay “The Olympian Delusion” (JAPA, 2011) Recommended Readings: SM Bion, W.

Erst Patientin, dann Therapeutin. Viele der selbstbewussten Frauen, die dann als Psychoanalytikerinnen arbeiteten und auch eigene Institute gründeten, lagen bei Sigmund Freud oder einem seiner Schüler auf der Couch. Obwohl zeittypisch patriarchische Denkmuster das neuartige Seelenzerlegungsmodell prägten, gab es in der psychoanalytischen Szene wenig Vorbehalte gegenüber berufstätigen, gebildeten Frauen. Diskussionen waren also fast vorprogrammiert: etwa über Freuds Theorie des weiblichen Penisneids. Die Medizinerin Karen Horney z.B. konterte mit der Idee eines männlichen Gebärneids. Und die Kinderärztin Sabina Spielrein nahm Freuds Annahme eines Todestriebes vorweg. Oder brachte sie ihn erst auf die Idee? Angefangen mit Melanie Klein und Freuds Tochter Anna, die die Grundlagen der Kinderanalyse schufen, bis hin zur dezidiert feministischen Psychoanalytikerin Margarete Mitscherlich: Der weibliche Beitrag zur Weiterentwicklung psychoanalytischer Theorie und Praxis war immer auch ein Akt der Emanzipation.

This podcast episode is an unpacking and discussion of the recent Netflix production The Lost Daughter, based on the novel of the same name by the pseudonymous Italian novelist Elena Ferrante and directed by Maggie Gyllenhaal. The film explores the textured, complex, nuanced, challenging parts of the mothering experience and positioning of motherhood culturally. The themes explored shine a light on the shadow side of being a mother, the boundaries of maternal ‘transgressions', and the experience of maternal ambivalence. To reflect on the film, I'm joined in conversation by Julianne Boutaleb, a passionate and highly experienced perinatal psychologist who has worked for over 15 years in the NHS and private practice with parents and parents-to-be and their babies. Julianne and I discuss the importance of this film in exploring the complex and raw portrayal of motherhood on our screens, something we so rarely see examined in such a demanding and articulate way. We look at mothering and the experience of maternal violence, peacemaking and repair, and explore the gap between the idealised version of motherhood versus what is real. We ask and explore questions such as - what do we do with the loss of the imagined future we had before having our children? What are ‘maternal transgressions' of the ‘bad mother' and who defines these? Who decides which are acceptable and which ones aren't? What stories and rules have we internalised as mothers, and where have these come from? What standards are we holding ourselves to as mothers? We look at the possibility of self-erasure and self-surveillance, and explore why it could be helpful to start with the basic premise that we are never going to always meet our child's emotional needs, and why perhaps that's not our job. This is a powerful episode full of interesting discussion on the cultural, social and deeply personal experience of mothering and the sacrifice, tension and fierce love involved. Acknowledging that this film can raise challenging, fraught, and sometimes painful responses in viewers, if you find aspects of this podcast conversation raises difficult feelings for you, please reach out for support.

ALAN MULHERN: The Quest & Psychotherapy (Jungian Approach to Healing)
Details on zoom course on Part 6 of the The Sower and the Seed direct from thepilgrimquest@gmail.com or from www.alanmulhern.com Nature, besides being benevolent, is also death-threatening and appears malevolent. Survival demands aggression. Destructiveness and selfishness are vital parts of our animal and therefore human psyche. Our savagery is infamous. Thus, we have the opposites of nature, the good and the terrible, within ourselves. These opposites in our experience of nature, the two faces of the Great Mother, the good and the terrible, are paralleled very closely by the psychoanalytic school of Melanie Klein which postulates (Klein 2003) that all human infants begin life in a paranoid schizoid state in which the good and bad breast alternate as fundamental structuring experiences of the infant psyche. This duality is resolved in the ‘depressive position' which would find its equivalent in the history of the species as the birth of civilization. Freud also postulated that life and civilization emerged and developed out of two polar forces – love and hate.
durée : 01:40:00 - Les Nuits de France Culture - Pour comprendre, peut-être, pourquoi Lacan l'affublait du sobriquet de "géniale tripière". "Recherches et pensée contemporaines - Faut-il brûler Melanie Klein ?" une émission diffusée la première fois le 8 janvier 1983 sur France Culture. Considérée comme la mère fondatrice de la psychanalyse des enfants, reconnue mondialement comme l'une des figures les plus marquantes de l'histoire de la psychanalyse, toutes catégories confondues, Melanie Klein n'en a pour autant pas moins été, depuis toujours, au centre de controverses et cible d'attaques parfois sans nuance. Pourquoi celle qui aura influencé plusieurs générations de psychanalystes a-t-elle pu être à ce point adulée par les uns et vilipendée par les autres ? * En 1983, un peu plus de vingt ans après sa disparition, Melanie Klein était sur la sellette dans "Recherches et pensée contemporaines_"_ où, au micro d'Émile Noël, Jean Laplanche, Jacques Goldberg et Jean-Michel Petot, en confrontant leurs analyses, dégageaient les points les plus souvent contestés de l'héritage de Melanie Klein et, loin des querelles de chapelle, tentaient de cerner ce qu'avait été son apport à la psychanalyse, tant sur le plan clinique que sur le plan théorique.

Let's join our minds to explore together the nature of telepathy, taking in along the way: the usefulness of magick in understanding the paranormal; definitions of telepathy and their problems; crisis apparitions; Nick Totton's definition of telepathy as "the experience of transparency between subjects"; the strengths of this definition; how telepathy tends to creep into both magick and therapy; telepathy in psychotherapy; a personal example of apparent telepathy in therapy; its significance in terms of my relationship to my therapist; reasons why therapy might encourage telepathy; the fear of telepathy within therapeutic organisations; Mikita Brottman's take on this and on projective identification (PI); the definition of PI versus projection; a common and widely experienced example of PI; PI as communication through a spectrum of possible means, not necessarily all paranormal; Melanie Klein's original definition of PI and Wilfred Bion's development of it; PI as a fundamental activity of the mind, a primitive kind of thinking; the "middle way" of regarding PI, and why this could be evasive; telepathy and anxiety; a personal example of a crisis apparition; telepathy in the service of intimacy as well as in the service of trauma; telepathy in the case of discarnate beings; a personal example; telepathy versus paranoia; how conventional communication is to telepathy as speech is to touch; Totton's suggestion that the paranormal is bodily; the multiplicity of bodies in occult philosophy.
