Seminar description:
LISTENING TO THE FURIES: RELATIONAL TRAUMA AND THE MORAL THIRD. Join pioneering relational psychoanalyst Dr. Jessica Benjamin for a discussion on her recent work interpreting Homer’s The Iliad. Expanding on her established framework of the “doer/done-to” dynamic, Dr. Benjamin uses the epic poem to analyze the psychological roots of collective trauma and social violence. She will discuss how the breakdown of mutual recognition traps societies in cycles of vengeance and how the concept of the “Moral Third” can offer a pathway toward repair. Dr. Benjamin will explore with us the relevance of this work for navigating both clinical impasses and broader socio-political controversies.

Seminar description:
BEYOND THE OEDIPAL COMPLEX: SIBLING DYNAMICS AND THE LAW OF THE MOTHER. Join us for a discussion with Professor Juliet Mitchell on her landmark model of early development, Sibling Trauma and the Law of the Mother. Expanding the vertical framework of the Oedipal complex, she introduces a lateral axis centered on sibling relationships. She presents the “Law of the Mother” — the maternal prohibition against sibling violence and competition that is the basis for social equality among peers. Professor Mitchell will discuss with us how this horizontal shift reconfigures our understanding of unconscious relational dynamics, exploring its relevance both within clinical spaces and for interpreting current global controversies.
