​ICLO-NLS 5th Study Day: The Unconscious. For and Against.

​

Psychoanalysis was born from allowing and encouraging people to speak freely, to ‘say everything and anything that comes to mind’. This brought to light, in language, the fundamental split of the human subject: a dimension beyond one’s rational control and one’s conscious intentions. Freud called it the unconscious. It is ‘another scene’, a knowledge that one does not know one knows and of which one does not want to know anything about.

This dimension concerns one’s desires, conflicts, trauma and suffering. It concerns creativity and invention too. What has been rejected and what has been taken on. The impact of words on one’s body. What has been said and what has been silenced. What emerges in disguise. The particular way in which one makes sense of the point of real that has marked one’s existence. The threads of one’s history throughout generations and the unique fabric woven around the hole of what cannot be said. The singular truth of each, and what lies beyond truth. Something finds a way from there via dreams, jokes, slips of the tongue and symptoms.

The 5th Study-Day organised by ICLO-NLS will explore and question how the hypothesis of the unconscious is reformulated today, following Lacan’s teaching. How is the Lacanian unconscious differently conceptualised and treated from that of Freud? Where does the pathway of the unconscious lead to in an analysis? Does analysis work for or against the unconscious? How is the unconscious taken into account in the work in institutional settings (schools, hospitals)? What happens –clinically and socially-  if the human being is reduced to his behaviour, volition and cognition, if the ‘other scene’ is not taken into consideration?

About the Cartel, Formation Effects and the Work of the School

 

In this morning workshop, NLS Delegate for Cartels, Frank Rollier, will discuss the institutional mechanism that Lacan placed at the heart of his School: the Cartel – a small working group consisting of four people who have come together to work on a particular topic, with a plus-one to facilitate the work.

With this little working group, Lacan sought to construct a framework for the transmission of psychoanalysis designed to avoid the pitfalls that he saw in other psychoanalytic groups, while rearticulating it with the principles of analysis. “I’m counting on the Tourbillon”; said Lacan towards the end of his teaching, and Frank Rollier will take up this term, tourbillon, or ‘whirlwind’, in his presentation: 

 

“The Cartel’s Whirlwind: Affinities between the Cartel and Lacanian Psychoanalysis”.

 

This presentation, of interest to those with prior knowledge of the cartel as well as those who are as yet unfamiliar with it, will be followed by a lively discussion, with the participation of NLS President Lilia Mahjoub, which will be further animated by the contribution of two London Society members, Thomas Harding and Aino-Marjatta Mäki, who will speak about their experience of a cartel and its relation to the ongoing process of their formation as analysts.
