Susan Kolodny, D.M.H. (Oakland, CA)
This symposium will be a moderated conversation between three analyst-poets and a poet “interviewer” reflecting on the relationship between psychoanalysis and poetry. Listening, embodied experience, time, language, inspiration, blocks to (and supports of) creative expression all will be considered. The three will discuss the process of making poems, their own paths to writing poetry, as well as the relationship of poetry to psychoanalysis. The two psychoanalyst-poets are Forrest Hamer, Ph.D. and Susan Kolodny, D.M.H. The interviewing poet is Carol Snow who is an esteemed poet and not a psychoanalyst.

"LOVE’S NOT TIME’S FOOL: SOME CONTINUITIES, DISCONTINUITIES, AND ALTERATIONS IN PSYCHOANALYSIS DURING MY LIFETIME "
Anton O. Kris, M.D., renowned Psychiatrist, Professor, Training and Supervising Analyst, and author, is the 2017 recipient of the Candidates Council Master Teacher Award. Drawing on clinical examples, Dr. Kris will identify: 1) continuities in psychoanalysis that have endured from the mid- 1930s to the present (for example, the recognition of unconscious mental processes, the use of free association, and the importance of unconscious conflict); 2) discontinuities in psychoanalysis, features that have undergone significant modifications since the 1930s (for example, the full development of the structural point of view, the elaboration of pre-oedipal development; and female development and sexual preferences); and 3) radical alterations in psychoanalysis since the 1930s (for example, the recognition of the analyst’s subjectivity, the revised understanding of countertransference, and the analyst’s participatory role in the analytic process). | | MP3 | | $15.00 | | $15.00 | |
