Two Mavericks of Psychoanalysis: Bion and Lacan. Dr. Jeanne Wolff Bernstein (Berkeley)

Feb 9, 2008 - Feb 9, 2008,
University of Toronto, George Ignatieff Theatre (Trinity College) 15 Devonshire Place Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Rarely have Lacan and Bion been placed in imaginary dialogue. In this workshop, their ideas about the unconscious, the importance of language, and the place of truth in psychoanalytic practice will be discussed from diverse viewpoints.

Both were devoted to finding truth in language not behind language, but in the spoken words themselves. They listened for emptiness and fullness in their patients' words. They argued for a psychoanalytic practice that focused on the patient's unconscious desire as it revealed itself in free association. Both were reluctant to use their countertransference as a means of understanding a patient's unconscious world. Instead they positioned themselves in a place more akin to that of a licensed fool who speaks in truths and paradoxes, unmasking the falsehoods and conventionalities blocking the subject's unconscious desire. While their theoretical ideas are at far greater variance, their clinical practices share surprisingly similar ideas. Today's exploration endeavours to bring a new facet to the debate of what constitutes truth in psychoanalytic discourse.
