| | | APSA_NY12-309 | | Scientific Paper 4: Neutrality and the Ethics of Desire Speakers: Author: Lewis A. Kirshner, MD (Cambridge, MA) In this paper, the concept of an ethics specific to psychoanalysis are explored through a critical reading of Lacan’s seminar, The Ethics of Psychoanalysis. While it must obviously address moral concerns, a psychoanalytic ethics should also embody a unique perspective on human nature growing out of analytic experience and knowledge. In particular, the analyst’s desire is always in play in his attempt to sustain an ethical position. An examination of Lacan’s seminar highlights this link, but also points to a number of unresolved problems. Audio CDs: 1 | | Audio CD | | $15.00 | | $15.00 | |
