On the Destruction and Death Drives - Andre Green

Descriere On the Destruction and Death Drives - Andre Green

Jaron, Steven: - Andre Green, French psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, member of the Paris Psychoanalytical Society (SPP), was one of the most pre-eminent figures of the contemporary psychoanalytic movement, both for his theoretical and clinical research and his role within institutions. In 1965, Green became a member of the SPP, of which he was President from 1986 to 1989. From 1975 to 1977 he was a Vice-President of the International Psychoanalytical Association and from 1979 to 1980 a Freud Memorial Professor at University College London. He was elected an Honorary Member of the British Psychoanalytical Society. He attended Jacques Lacan's seminars between 1961 and 1967, when he definitively broke with him. He then directed a seminar at the Institute of Psychoanalysis in Paris where he invited the great philosophers and authors of his time including, Jean-Pierre Vernant, Michel Serres, Jacques Derrida, Marcel Detienne, and Rene Girard. A great reader of D. W. Winnicott and a friend of W. R. Bion, he constantly bridged the gap between British, American, and French psychoanalytical research in a spirit of international openness and turned towards the future of psychoanalysis. His theoretical contributions - the dead mother, private madness, the work of the negative, the analytic third, and the analytic object - opened the way to psychoanalysis beyond neurosis, the hallmark of twenty-first-century psychoanalysis. Many of his works, such as Life Narcissism, Death Narcissism, On Private Madness, and The Work of the Negative are classics of psychoanalytic literature. Steven Jaron trained as a psychoanalyst with the Psychoanalytic Society for Research and Training (SPRF), in Paris, France. He is on the staff of the Quinze-Vingts National Ophthalmological Hospital and works in private practice in Paris. He holds a PhD in French and comparative literature from Columbia University and is the author of Edmond Jabes: The Hazard of Exile (Legenda, 2003) and Zoran Music: Voir jusqu'au coeur des choses (L'Echoppe, 2008). His essays have also appeared in Libres cahiers pour la psychanalyse and in Bacon and the Mind: Art, Neuroscience and Psychology (Thames and Hudson, 2019). Howard B. Levine is a member of APSA, PINE, the Contemporary Freudian Society, on the faculty of the NYU Post-Doc Contemporary Freudian track, on the editorial board of the International Journal of Psychoanalysis and Psychoanalytic Inquiry, editor-in-chief of the Routledge Wilfred Bion Studies Book
