SUMMARY:LGBTQ Study group w/ Willa N. France\, J.D.
DESCRIPTION:LGBTQ STUDY GROUP of the William Alanson White Institute invites you to a conversation with \n  \nWilla N. France\, J.D.\n  \nGender Identity as Fetish \nPart 1: Creating a Gender—Clinical Material \n  \nWednesday January 10\, 2024 \n08:30 – 10:00 PM (EST) \n  \nDescription: \nTrauma infuses us\, from our first beginnings. Jean Laplanche articulates our fundamental anthropological situation—the asymmetry of caregiver and infant; the barrage of messages addressed to us as infants and children—enigmatic\, intromitted\, introjected\, translatable and untranslatable. And so our socialization begins. It is hard to imagine a more significant trauma than our family’s and civil and religious authorities’ assignment of our genders—based on a genital binary. We are authorized to inhabit the identities of but one half of humanity\, the other foreclosed. It is\, in the Western world at least\, a Universal Gender Trauma. Binaries seem so natural; definitional categories that can become concrete\, then reified\, then essential for identity—a kind of bedrock of difference—serving both to express and defend who we are. Difference and disavowal are a familiar pair\, the very foundation of fetishism. And when the anxiety of difference\, of ambiguity\, becomes overwhelming\, the mere presence of a different other can feel like an assault calling for defensive measures\, personal and social. Through a clinical example we will see how one transwoman navigated such traumas and came to create and inhabit her gender. At first an identity held tightly but over a number of years more loosely and lightly. \n  \nSpeaker’s bio: \nTranswoman Willa N. France (she/her/hers) began her physical transition in 2004 at the age of 55. Her early careers are in naval architecture and marine engineering and then law dating back to 1972. She has completed her fourth year candidacy in the William Alanson White Institute’s psychoanalytic training program\, LQP tract\, and will continue for another to complete patient hour requirements. Willa was born in Wisconsin to parents who raised mink. At an early age\, her family moved several times throughout the west before settling on the Oregon coast\, their livelihood always based on mink ranching. She has lived with her wife of almost 51 years\, a psychologist and psychoanalyst\, in East Harlem\, New York for nearly 40 years. They have one son\, a wonderful daughter-in-law and two grandchildren. Willa has written poetry for many years and self-published a novel in verse in 2007 titled Incunabulum (ISBN 0741443759).  Her transition story\, Desiderium\, remains\, not surprisingly\, a work in process. \n  \n\n\n\nPlease note: \n– The registrants will receive the Zoom link to attend this meeting via email from “William Alanson White Institute” with the subject line: \n“LGBTQ Study Group 2023-2024”. \n– LGBTQ Study Group events are not recordeded. \n– We are not able to provide CE credits at this time.\n\n\n\n  \nFor inquiries regarding The WAWI LGBTQ Study Group please contact co-chairs who wish you a Happy New Year. \n  \nEsin Egit: e.egit@wawhite.org \nWilla France: poetadmiral@earthlink.net

SUMMARY:KATHARINA ROTHE\,  PhD with Discussant Pascal Sauvayre\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:DISTURBING THE SLEEP OF THE WORLD: PSYCHOANALYSIS\, SOCIAL AWAKENING & RADICAL POLITICS\, the 2023-2024 Colloquium Series\nThe Colloquium Series 2023-2024 presented by the Psychoanalytic Society of the William Alanson White Institute\nCultural Analysis Now! Urszenen of Money\, Powerlessness\, and Race\nKATHARINA ROTHE\,  PhD\nDISCUSSANT: PASCAL SAUVAYRE\, PhD\n  \nABOUT TODAY’S TALK\nIn recent years\, even mainstream psychoanalysis in the Global North has begun to explicitly include the social and political realm into ways of thinking about the individual. But considering individual and intimate suffering as fundamentally and inextricably immersed in the societal realm is not new to psychoanalytic thinking\, and the Frankfurt School has been working from this perspective since the 1930s. At the core of their project we find the idea of societal violence — namely\, within the capitalistic economic structure — ‘entering’ the subject through interactions with its first others and shaping its drive structure from birth.\nAlfred Lorenzer was a vitally important link between the Frankfurt School of Freudian-influenced social critique\, and contemporary psychoanalysis. Writing in Germany post-war\, and previously unavailable in English\, Lorenzer provided radically political and socially engaged reformulations of Freud and the psychoanalytic project. In their book\, Cultural Analysis Now! Katharina Rothe\, Steffen Krüger and Dan Rosengart bring one of Lorenzer’s seminal texts to anglophone audiences as well four commentaries on the work. For this presentation Dr. Rothe will introduce Lorenzer’s key concepts\, such as the scene and scenic understanding that have been employed to critically analyze what we may call the psychosocial or psycho-societal realm. She will discuss scenes around race\, money and power in the consulting room in relation to Freud’s primal scenes (Urszenen)\, and she will then zoom in on the very link between social reality and psychic fantasy when presenting such clinical scenes through the lens of Alfred Lorenzer’s scenic understanding. Pascal Sauvayre is the Discussant.\nABOUT  KATHARINE ROTHE\, PhD\nKatharina Rothe is a psychologist\, psychoanalyst and psychosocial researcher. She is a graduate of psychoanalytic training at the W. A. White Institute in New York where she teaches the course Gender\, Sex & Sexuality. She also teaches and supervises candidates at the Institute for Contemporary Psychoanalysis. Alongside maintaining a private practice in NYC\, she is widely published in academic journals and books on psychoanalysis\, qualitative methods in psychosocial research\, sex and gender\, anti-Semitism\, racism and the aftermath of the Holocaust. She is on the editorial boards of the German journal Psychoanalyse. Texte zur Sozialforschung and of Contemporary Psychoanalysis. Starting October 2023 she will also be teaching at the Sigmund Freud University in Berlin.\nABOUT PASCAL SAUVAYRE\, PhD\nPascal Sauvayre is faculty and training analyst at the William Alanson White Institute. He studies\, teaches\, and writes at the intersection of psychoanalysis and philosophy. A recent project includes editing\, with Roger Frie\, the book entitled ‘Culture\, Politics\, and Race in the Making of Interpersonal Psychoanalysis’\, published at Routledge.  He has a private practice in New York City.\nLearning Objectives for this program:\nAttendees will be able to explain some of the central ideas of Alfred Lorenzer\, such as the psychoanalytic method of “scenic understanding” and the in-depth hermeneutics of culture and society.\nAttendees will learn how to construct clinical interpretations that integrate the personal and the social.\n
