public lecture by Prof. Alfred Pritz
Moderator: Dr. David Ieroham, M.D.
More information about the event:
How and to what extent does psychoanalysis reflect the contemporary
social realities? Is there space in Bulgaria for psychoanalysis,
psychoanalysts and psychotherapy?
Psychoanalysis has its own reading in various cultural, political
and social processes. In most cases it does not coincide with
the readings theoreticians and analysts interpreting those
processes for the public domain do. The nature of psychoanalytical
approach relates to unconscious processes. Often its reading
of those processes has its own style and senses that all other
approaches lack. That reading is not obligatory but it is
not a secondary one either. Psychoanalytical approach creates
new meanings and opportunities for orientation in the present
and deserves to get its position amongst other approaches
exploring social realities.
