Après-Coup Psychoanalytic Association presents
SEMINAR: On the Subject’s Relation to Knowledge with Paola Mieli
Friday, February 16, 2018, 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm, The School of Visual Arts, 136 West 21st Street, Room 408, New York, NY
Returning to Freud and Lacan, this seminar will reflect on the function that knowledge and belief play in the subject’s relation to the world. Denial, disavowal, foreclusion—and their subjective and collective implications—will be explored, as well as the differences between unconscious and conscious knowledge, between savoir, connaissance and savoir faire.
Readings for February 16th: S. Freud, On the Sexual Theories of Children, 1908, Family Romances, 1908; Neurosis and Psychosis, 1923; J. Lacan, Seminar Book 1, Chapter XXI; M. Foucault, History of Sexuality, Book 1, Chapter 5. Continue reading On the Subject’s Relation to Knowledge with Paola Mieli at Après-Coup
