    Art, aesthetics, psychoanalysis

    Artefilosofia Journal

    The first question that comes to mind when addressing the relationship between art and psychoanalysis is the following: By what right and on what grounds, or yet what entitles psychoanalysis to take upon itself to issue judgment upon art and/or upon artists? This first question immediately unfolds into many. To what extent can a theory of the psychological unconscious extrapolate its primary field of application to head down to theaters, museums, concert rooms, canvases, sculptures, installations and so forth? Being an eminently clinical discipline, do we run the risk of transforming psychoanalysis into a worldview? Into a totalitarian system capable of deciphering the meaning of everything that presents itself upon the suspicious gaze and attentive ears of the psychoanalyst?

    Anthropology, Culture and Cognition. Freud, a century after Totem and Taboo

    Although hardly avoiding intense criticism by anthropologists such as Boas and Malinowski, Freud’s theories did, however, have a profound impact upon anthropology, receiving an enthusiastic reception among Culture and Personality theorists during the middle decades of the 20th century. Leading anthropologists of this trend relied on Freud’s contributions to develop approaches based on the relationship between culture and personality, expanding their views on the importance of culture in personality formation, on the constitution of culture patterns and on the formulation of national character. One hundred years after the publication of Totem and Taboo (1913), this two-day seminar seeks to address the influence of Freud’s legacy in contemporary anthropological thought. It also aims to explore the new interface between the two disciplines, namely through the recent work produced on kinship and on the cognitive approaches to the study of religion.

    Seminar - History

    Les sciences humaines et sociales en Grèce et en Turquie. Outils, enjeux et orientations

    En cette deuxième année de ce séminaire consacré à la construction des savoirs en sciences humaines et sociales en Grèce et en Turquie, l’histoire reste au cœur de la réflexion. Nous nous intéresserons aux thématiques privilégiées de la recherche historique actuelle dans les universités grecques et turques. Nous ferons également une place aux travaux portant sur « l’histoire de l’histoire », en présentant diverses approches critiques de la construction des sciences historiques. Dans un objectif de croisement disciplinaire, des sondages dans des domaines voisins tels que l’anthropologie, la sociologie ou les sciences religieuses seront poursuivis. En 2009-2010, deux ou trois séances seront consacrées à l’introduction de la psychanalyse dans les pays mis en étude.
