Leon Brenner

Anyone have any gossip, anecdotes, or biographical details about the congress of the École freudienne de Paris on April 19, 1970, where Lacan gave his famous address on teaching, “Allocution sur l’enseignement”?

Delighted to be visiting Dublin next week to give a lecture at FLi. Check their program out here: freudlacaninstitute.com/program-of-con…

Join us for a lecture on Ingmar Bergman and psychoanalysis. Unconscious Berlin. Saturday at 3pm CER hybrid. ko-fi.com/c/b61fb98131

There are going to be several interesting events that I'm arranging this January. I hope you can join us in-person or online. Here is one of them: ipu-berlin.de/kieslowski-wit…

@lecturalacania The first part clearly refers to Nacht and appears in other places. But the wording in the second sentence doesn’t necessarily refer to the phrase in the first. It would have been more fitting to say, “this analyst” or something like that.

@leonbrennercom Although he does not explicitly say that "the ego produces the dream", that idea is implied to say the least. And his wording in that phrase leaves no doubt that he's the one Lacan is referring to.

Dear psychoanalysis friends: Who is the "psychoanalyst" Lacan refers to as arguing that the Ego manufactures the dream? Original text: Un rêve donc n’est qu’un rêve. On peut même lire sous la plume d’un psychanalyste qui se mêle d’enseigner, que c’est une production du Moi.

@Hamoghadam That guy says a lot of things. Show me the name of the article.

@leonbrennercom Chatgpt.com says it is Heinz Hartmann.

“The analytic formation proceeds by a passage through analysis that destabilizes not just the symptom, but the subject’s position toward desire itself. The analyst is someone for whom this traversal has yielded not resolution, but a new form of relation to lack, a desire that is unmoored from utility, benevolence, or comprehension. This type of desire arises only within the analytic process, and only as its consequence. One does not possess this desire prior to entering analysis. One cannot will it, simulate it, or aspire to it. It is produced or, rather, it emerges as the byproduct of an experience that radically alters one’s relation to suffering, to speech, and to the body.”

“Literary” at that

@DrTempleGrandin Can’t wait to read it!
