Cos'è un artista per Freud
Un artista è originariamente un uomo che si distacca dalla realtà giacché non riesce ad adattarsi alla rinuncia del soddisfacimento pulsionale che la realtà inizialmente esige, e lascia che i suoi desideri di amore e di gloria si realizzino nella vita di fantasia. Egli trova però la via per ritornare dal mondo della fantasia alla realtà, poiché grazie alle sue doti particolari trasfigura le sue fantasie in una nuova specie di "cose vere", che vengono fatte valere dagli umini come preione immagini riflesse della realtà.

Che differenza c'è tra poesia e prosa?

Between the Imaginary and the Real: Photographic Portraits of Mourning and of Melancholia in Argentina
During Argentina's
‘Dirty War’ (1976-83), the military regime attempted to erase an entire
population; today the photographs of the dead/missing stand in
defiance, contradicting that attempted erasure of the desaparecidos.
In this essay, Julia Reineman explains the connection between photography and loss, and how photography fits within Lacan's understanding of the Imaginary, the Symbolic, the Real, and the ‘gaze’.
She discusses complicated mourning (circumstances which inhibit/delay mourning)
and the difficulties created by political disappearances: as long as
the family members maintain the belief that their loved one(s) might
still be alive, they cannot begin the process of mourning the permanently lost object. Beginning with the Madres de Plaza de Mayo and, using the web-based art exhibits of Marcelo Brodsky and Inés Ulanovsky, she analyzes the role of the photograph in Argentina, how it serves as a linking object, how it is used to symbolize the dead/missing, and how it can function to facilitate mourning, or to serve as proof of pathological melancholia. She argues that such artistic representations of loss function to reinscribe healthy mourning rituals within the Argentine society.

A Plea for the Survival of Psychoanalysis
I believe that a fundamental danger to the survival of
psychoanalysis comes from the tendency to neglect the impact of so many
parallel training “schools”, fostered by IPA analysts themselves, that
thrive all around the world. Short-cut training is offered as well as
low-frequency-session training analyses. These institutions are an
unrecognized significant threat to:
1. the identity of psychoanalysis as a discipline and as a specific method and setting;
2. the minimal standards of training requirements.
Such parallel institutes based on our discipline contribute to the
confusion between psychotherapy and psychoanalysis. They also foster
cultural deceit of the public who do not know exactly what therapy they
are getting since everything close to a “talking cure” is called
“analysis”!

Facing the Pain: Clinical Experience and the Development of Psychoanalytic Knowledge
The International Psychoanalytical Studies Organization (IPSO) announces its 22nd Congress, to be held in conjunction with the 48th Congress of the International Psychoanalytical Association (IPA)
The overall topic of the joint Congresses will be
Facing the Pain: Clinical Experience and the Development of Psychoanalytic Knowledge
The
aim of the congress is to explore how analysts and patients face
psychic pain in the clinical experience and how these encounters inform
the ways we develop psychoanalytic theory and technique. Three major
topics will be addressed during these congresses: Depression,
Disturbances of affect regulation and Disruptions in the process of
symbolization.
The
IPSO congress program for Prague 2013 will contain a Plenary Session
with scientific presentations including the candidates’ awarded papers,
the IPSO forum, Supervisions and Interviews with senior analysts, Peer
discussion groups and the IPSO Business Meeting where the new Executive
Committee will be elected. These activities are intended to provide a
scientific, respectful, plural and social environment where candidates
can share their experiences, as psychoanalyst in training, enhancing
their theoretical and clinical knowledge.
DEADLINES FOR CONGRESS
PAPER SUBMISSIONS: 7 September 2012
SUPERVISIONS: 1 December 2012
