| Extra Info | : | Maudsley Lectures in Psychoanalysis with Carine Minne and Ray Galloway Ray will present the work he was tasked to undertake, interviewing over 200 victims, for the report about Jimmy Savile’s involvement with Leeds Royal Infirmary Hospital. Carine will present a fictionalised court report, based on all the facts that subsequently emerged, and prepared for the missing criminal trial following his 2007 interview under caution, that never led to charges being brought. The court report is constructed as if he had been arrested and remanded to prison at this time, the last opportunity, and is based on her fictionalised interviews of him in prison. Acts of violence have long been a source of fascination and bewilderment, not least because the shock of their impact invites a particular type of thinking, or non-thinking. When confronted with unthinkable, or apparently mindless, acts, we are all vulnerable to locating the source of violence in the 'offender', and not seeing the links with the violence, both interpersonal and structural, in our families, communities and societies. This lecture series will offer participants an opportunity to engage with a range of contemporary psychoanalytic perspectives on understanding and thinking about different types of violence, in minds and deeds. There will be a combination of theory and clinical presentations. This series has relevance for those who are experienced and those who are new to this area. |
