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. Audio CDs: 3 | | Audio CD | | $40.00 | | $40.00 | |

Presenters: Forrest Hamer, Ph.D. (Oakland, CA)
Susan Kolodny, D.M.H. (Oakland, CA)
This symposium will be a moderated conversation between three analyst-poets and a poet “interviewer” reflecting on the relationship between psychoanalysis and poetry. Listening, embodied experience, time, language, inspiration, blocks to (and supports of) creative expression all will be considered. The three will discuss the process of making poems, their own paths to writing poetry, as well as the relationship of poetry to psychoanalysis. The two psychoanalyst-poets are Forrest Hamer, Ph.D. and Susan Kolodny, D.M.H. The interviewing poet is Carol Snow who is an esteemed poet and not a psychoanalyst.
