Lost Classics (2): Primitive Agony and Symbolization

May 2 @ 10:00pm - 11:00pm EDT

In the seventh installment of “Lost Classics,” we will be taking a close look at Rene Roussillon’s “Primitive Agony and Symbolization. ” How are archaic experiences present in the adolescent and adult mind? What role does “interpretation” play in making contact with these primitive parts of ourselves? Does symbolization help? How might we think about symbolizing what has not yet or can’t be symbolized? What role does the body play in the revealing, discovering or even constructing archaic aspects of self? These are only a few of the important questions in this provocative, insightful contemporary re-examination on how analytic work helps facilitate change in which archaic aspects of self are intertwined within our adult experience of ourselves and the world.
