Jeffrey Sacks: The Philosophical Anthropology of Paul Ricoeur Towards an Evolving Contemporary Psychoanalysis (Class 1)
October 19, 2016 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm
Free
This series of conversations will examine the core concepts of philosophical anthropology and explore their application towards an evolving contemporary psychoanalysis through clinical examples and selected readings of Paul Ricoeur. His interdisciplinary blending of literature, philosophy and psychoanalysis and the poetics of imagination offer enhanced opportunities of ethical gratitude, healing mutual recognition and liberation.
First Conversation: From the semantics of desire, metaphor, and narrative to vulnerability as the new capability
Second Conversation: From the interpersonal intersubjective linguistic field theory to the power of the possible and liberation
Third Conversation: From recognition-identification and self-recognition to mutual recognition and gratitude.
