Haydee Faimberg, Django Unchained and Resiliance from Sasha Rolde on IP.net

Dear Colleagues,

Happy New Year to all!

The International Psychoanalytic website begins 2013 with a week of stellar post that should be of interest to all of you. As you know the website has grown and matured and requires a lot more to maintain, so I will urge you again to try to contribute to it.

I will first give you a list of my choices as usual and then present the entire menu. I was especially intrigued by the following:

1) The announcement of an IPTAR program, on “contributions of Haydee
Faimberg” with possibility of consultation with her personally, and would

Morality/hate, anxious children and mind/brain from Sasha Rolde on IP.net

Dear Colleagues,

This is the last post of the year 2012. As we await the the “fiscal cliff”, the  changes in US health care and our own APsaA annual meeting in January, I have tried to pick out some representative posts from the international psychoanalytic website to usher us into the new year. I have tried to keep it light, so I have not listed some of the sadder posts about guns and war in detail. Inevitably they are there.

I again ask you to please post your comments. Also, I know that many of you enjoy this world wide psychoanalytic enterprise and if possible, would encourage you to make a year end donation to it on the website.

Here re my choices this time:

1) I want to direct your attention to two film screenings followed by psychoanalytic discussions:
a) Hitchcock*s “Rear Window “at NYPSI &

ANALYTIC FILM NIGHT at WCSPP

WCSPP’s Film Committee invites you as our guests to our winter event, a film screening of “My Life As A Dog” with discussion led by Robby Gaines and Barbara Messer.

This film, released in 1988, was widely hailed as a work of tremendous depth, probing a child’s life experience in the face of his mother’s untimely illness and death, already having been left by his father. Slowly learning the ways of people and the pain of loss, he comes to understand and survive, ultimately finding, in a network of relationships, the means to anchor himself in a more grown-up Continue reading ANALYTIC FILM NIGHT at WCSPP
