CONFERENCE

Psychoanalysis and the Language of War

essaim 46

A Franco-American presentation via Zoom

Saturday, September 25, 2021 

10:00 AM – 12:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time (US and Canada)
16h00 – 18h00 (heure française) 

The word “war” carries a powerful charge in several sorts of war and in several ways of making war: position war, economic war, atomic war, cold war, spreading war, war against the pandemic… Psychoanalysts and psychoanalysis are also traversed by this signifier. What are the individual consequences that wars have had for analysts in their practice? What reflections and writings associating psychoanalysis and war have issued from this?

essaim is a French psychoanalytic journal. This encounter is devoted to the presentation and the discussion of Issue 46. (For a summary of Issue 46 in English, click here).
