| Extra Info | : | “Pockets Full of Dynamite“ ...War, Propaganda and Psychoanalysis - Roger Money-Kyrle Revisited Claudia Frank and Heinz Weiss in discussion with Daniel Pick, with David Taylor as chair. Roger Money-Kyrle observed that, ‘we are like people who go about without knowing that their pockets are full of dynamite’ (1937). His alertness to the potential within the individual psyche to give rise to devastating social events was a constant thread through his thinking. Money-Kyrle lived through two catastrophically destructive wars, and over his career he wrote numerous papers about conflict, political power and the human urge for violence. His writing emerged as much from his deep thinking about philosophy, ethics and politics as from his clinical practice; it remains a rich psychoanalytic exploration of both the individual’s inner life, and the ways in which the individual psyche relates to the broader sphere of human society. This event is an opportunity to think about his ideas, against the background of Claudia Frank and Heinz Weiss’ freshly published 3-volume German translation of the English version of the Collected Papers of Roger Money-Kyrle. The webinar will be in English as usual. |
