It is essential to register for the event but since it is planned to take place in-room the number of seats is limited by Covid prevention measures. Only 25 seats are available and will be allotted on a first-come first-served basis, with a small reserve list. As with the seminars, there is no charge for attendance. To register please email niall.gildea@gmail.com with your name and affiliation. Registered participants will be sent further details.

This Autumn Workshop arises from the past year’s work in the Interdisciplinary Seminar in Psychoanalysis. Titles, in order of the speakers, are: ‘The Shadow of Narcissism: (Jewish) Self-Hatred in the Age of Identity Politics’; ‘Shame as an object-relational defence’; ‘Walter Benjamin and Violence’; ‘Wollheim on Images of Mind’; ‘Wollheim’s Shapes’; and ‘Not recognising violence: subjectvity, domination and the trauma of denied experience’.
