The Telescoping of Generations; Misunderstanding and Psychic Truths (Archive)

Continuous
Cost: $59 SIGN-UP
Widely recognized among European analysts as one of their most creative and important contributors and well known among South American analysts, Haydee Faimberg has only recently been “discovered” in North America. Her life work is the explication of the unconscious intergenerational transmission of narcissistically driven fantasies, attitudes, and beliefs concerning Others. Clinically this involves listening to the unspoken motives of previous generations as they become manifest in a heretofore hidden dimension of clinical work and to understanding the analyst’s narcissistic resistances to hearing what the patient does not and cannot say. On a broader front her work has generated interest among family and child therapists, those interested in cultural studies and anyone working with the aftermath of terror and genocide. Indeed Faimberg’s work is of interest to anyone interested in aspects of psychoanalysis that goes beyond the psychology of the individual. In this conference an extraordinary panel takes up Faimberg’s central thesis: that “psychic reality raises a problem concerning the status assignable to the subject’s history and to material reality. There is a solipsism here in that only the subject is deemed to exist or be knowable.’
Note: This conference is offered as part of a “two-fer” with our conference on “Explicit and Implicit Domains in Psychoanalytic Change.”
