University Forum: Shakespeare’s “Othello”

Speakers: Stanley J. Coen, Robert Brustein, Michael Wood, Paul Schwaber

Robert Brustein, Professor Emeritus of English at Harvard; Founder of the Yale Repertory and American Repertory Theatres, playwright, author (“The Tainted Muse: Prejudice and Presumption in Shakespeare and His Time”), and recipient of the National Medal of Arts, talks about: how easily the forces of good can be overwhelmed by the forces of evil, Iago as a new kind of image in literature, and the embodiment of a world without a vigilant God. Michael Wood, Charles Barnwell Straut Class of 1923 Professor of English and Comparative Literature, at Princeton, author (“Shakespeare”), critic (New York and London Reviews of Books), will talk about how language works in “Othello” as a means of seduction and almost becomes a character in its own right.

Presidential Symposium: The Twilight of the Training Analysis System

Speakers: Robert L. Pyles

This presentation will summarize the principal analyses of the training analysis system formulated over the past 30 years, pointing to this system’s relevance regarding authoritarianism, infantilization, intellectual stultification, and institutional corruption in psychoanalytic education. The question is raised, whether replacing the present structure of psychoanalytic institutes and governance of psychoanalytic education may have a renovating effect on psychoanalytic science and profession, and on the impact of psychoanalysis on the broader scientific, cultural, and mental health environment. One such possible model of modern transformation of psychoanalytic education is presented, its advantages and constraints discussed, and the inevitable resistances to change explored.

Plenary Address: Second Century for Psychoanalysis and for APsaA — Their Fates May Differ

Speakers: Warren Procci

Psychoanalysis has entered its second century. The current state of the field is mixed, and somewhat bifurcated. Psychoanalysis as a discipline, as a theoretical corpus, and as an area for academic inquiry is holding its own if not necessarily thriving. Contrarily, psychoanalysis as represented in its institutes, societies, centers, and especially within APsaA, our major professional organization, is in a serious decline. The complex reasons for these quite different situations are examined. An inability of the major competing components of our organization to work towards meaningful compromise is, in the speaker’s view, a major factor. Some thoughts concerning what must be done, and quickly, are offered.

Scientific Paper 1: The Psychoanalyst and the Clinic: A Balint Group for Psychiatrists

Speakers: Jonathan Sklar; Norman V. Kohn

The paper offers an original description of Balint Group methodology and its relevance for training psychiatrists. Central is the understanding that the psychiatrist presents his clinical problem with the patient. Making the doctor’s counter-transference central to the process moves it away from being supervision i.e., the technical acquisition of skills. This is key for Balint, for whom acquiring psychodynamics “entails a limited, though considerable change in the doctor’s personality.” This paper is a tribute to developing Balint’s ideas and offering graphic vignettes of the difficulty and value of working with psychiatrists in this way. The author is a Training and Supervising analyst at the British Psychoanalytical Society.
