The 79th Oral History Workshop, “Anna Freud Revisited,” will address four topics: 1) The postwar trajectory of Anna Freud’s theoretical and clinical thinking, as illustrated in the 16 papers she published in “The Psychoanalytic Study of the Child” between 1945 and 1965; 2) The evolution of Anna Freud’s child analysis clinical practice, and her growing recognition that some children require a developmental approach in the therapeutic situation; 3) The pedagogical and theoretical legacy of the Hietzing School, founded by Anna Freud and Dorothy Burlington, is explored through the writings of Erik Erikson, who taught at the school; 4) A retrospective account of the experience, and enduring influence, of undergoing the four-year child analysis training program at the Hampstead Clinic under the aegis of Anna Freud. In addition, the Director of the Freud Museum (London) will discuss the recently re-designed Anna Freud exhibit. | | MP3 | | $25.00 | | $25.00 | |

Twitter is a social media platform and phone app that launched in 2006. In the past decade it has grown to be the third largest social media site, following Facebook and YouTube. Twitter currently has more than 310 million active users per month. The site allows people to engage in conversations and interact with users through short, 140 characters or less posts called “tweets.” Twitter is a powerful tool for raising interest in and promoting psychoanalysis, but many psychoanalysts have yet to embrace its power. This workshop will serve as a hands-on introduction to Twitter, covering all the basics on how to use the platform, as well as discussing how to use it to elevate interest in psychoanalysis. | | MP3 | | $20.00 | | $20.00 | |
