Psychoanalysis and the Small Screen: The Year the Cinemas Closed: The Lines of the Symbolic in Psychoanalysis Series

Editat de Carol Owens, Sarah Meehan O'Callaghan
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 11 aug 2023
Psychoanalysis and the Small Screen examines the impact of cinema closures and the shift to small-screen consumption on our aesthetic and subjective desires during the COVID-19 pandemic from a Lacanian perspective.
The chapters in this text hold a unique focus on the intersections of film, psychoanalysis, and the subjective implications of the shift from cinema to the small screen of domestic space. The subjects span historical and current Lacanian thinking, including the representation of psychoanalysis as artifice, Lacan appearing on television, the travails and tribulations of computer mediated analysis, the traumatrope, and the techno-inflected imagined social bond of what Jacques Lacan called the ‘alethosphere’. In this collection, the socio-cultural narratives and Real disruptions of the pandemic are framed as a function of the paradoxes of enjoyment characteristic of Lacanian psychoanalysis rather than merely the psychosocial repercussions of a planetary and contingent disaster.
With contributions from practicing psychoanalysts, as well as academics working in related interdisciplinary areas, Psychoanalysis and the Small Screen will have appeal to readers of contemporary Lacanian work in general, to readers and researchers of contemporary psychoanalytic studies, and transdisciplinary and intersectional scholars engaged in psychoanalytic, cultural, and psycho-social research.

Recenzii

"For most film lovers, the turn to the small screen has been something to lament. But Carol Owens and Sarah Meehan O’Callaghan, along with their excellent contributors, show that with something lost, something has also been gained. In a series of illuminating essays, Psychoanalysis and the Small Screen shows us the incredible theoretical riches that the small screen makes evident, riches that the cinematic experience often obscures. For anyone wanting to understand why we are always looking at our screens and for those who want to make sense of our contemporary moment, this is a collection absolutely not to be missed." - Todd McGowan, Professor of Film Studies, University of Vermont.
"Carol Owens and Sarah Meehan O’Callaghan in this compelling collection of essays invite us to reflect on the question of subjectivity once again during the latest pandemic, the year when cinemas closed. Broad in its scope – ranging from socio-cultural studies, philosophy and art to psychoanalysis - the contributors to this collection have provided a new perspective on what shapes our reality in the contemporary techno-mediated world. This collection with a Lacanian focus offers a unique way to explore and investigate different dimensions of the impact of screens on the theory and practice of psychoanalysis." - Berjanet Jazani, M.D, Author, Psychoanalyst, President of The College of Psychoanalysts UK
"In the old days we used to enter into the dark room of a cinema to behold a feast laid out before our eyes, larger than life. This phantasmagoria has now entered into our lives on small screens that consume us. Welcome to the metaverse! Though none of us has a hold, reading this book helps to find the ground only psychoanalysis can begin again to put beneath our feet." - Jamieson Webster, Psychoanalyst, Author, Asst. Professor, New School for Social Research, NYC.
