From the author: about the colossal and fundamental difference in the understanding of the phenomenon of the unconscious by psychologists on the one hand, and professional psychoanalysts and philosophers on the other. Often beginners (and sometimes with considerable experience) psychologists, theoretically recognizing the leading role of the unconscious in the life of the subject, however, in practical work they forget about this. The most common case of such forgetfulness is when a psychologist perceives the patient’s request and his words at face value and begins to try in every possible way to satisfy the patient exactly what he expresses in words. At the same time, it is completely forgotten that in the overwhelming majority (if not 100%) of cases, the words spoken at the session are only a rationalization of deeper motives that are not realized. Such work is superficial and, from the point of view of psychoanalysis (in its most varied variants), to be expressed metaphorically, is something like covering with plaster the cracks of a building that is beginning to collapse. Others talk about the unconscious, they believe that they even work with this content - when this does not go beyond the register of the Imaginary, as if access to the drama of desire and repression is identical to a simple appeal to right-hemisphere perception. I have come across common opinions from psychologists, which boil down to the fact that thinking, speech and everything connected with the left hemisphere are, they say, consciousness, but images and everything connected with the right hemisphere are unconscious. It’s hard to imagine greater absurdity, especially when you hear it from a psychologist. Many specialists, it seems, also only read the “yellow press” and its interpretations about Freud’s version of the unconscious)), and the thesis about the sexualization of the unconscious is often understood in such a “tabloid” context, where Freud appears almost as the instigator of some kind of orgy)), although Freud just argued that the main driving force of the unconscious is not sexual desire (and especially not perversion), but precisely prohibition and taboo. Moreover, the unconscious (already in modern interpretations of psychoanalysis, after Lacan - Derrida, Deleuze and Guattari, Foucault, Badiou, etc.) are not only sexualized, but also politicized. The unconscious is not only a product of the repression of the drama of the family triangle (and even the polygon), - it is now impossible to consider it in isolation from the socio-political situation, in isolation from the historical context, from mythology, from literary classics, from cultural heritage - moreover, from modern texts and products of culture, politics, social processes. To miss all these numerous factors means to avoid any serious work. The webinar “The Unconscious: The View of a Psychologist, Psychoanalyst, Philosopher. Differences” will take place on February 1 (Friday), 2013 and will be longer (from 20-00 to 23-00 in Moscow). It is dedicated to one topic, “The Unconscious,” but examined from different angles. Unfortunately, now we can often find references to the “unconscious” in its pulp-psychological understanding, which is very far from the serious and deep meanings that are invested in this concept by serious researchers of philosophy, cultural studies, and psychoanalysis. We will talk about understanding the unconscious from the points of view of Jung, Hillman, Lacan, Deleuze, Foucault, Badiou and others. The uniqueness of this webinar lies in the fact that it is usually very difficult to read especially Lacan and Deleuze in the originals, and the lectures of Lacanian educationalist Alexander Smulyansky are also difficult are not clear to everyone: so in this webinar, for the first time, we will talk about the most complex categories and phenomena in the simplest possible language - without losing the entire palette of meanings. At the end of December 2012, a new course of lecture-webinars “Phenomenology of the Soul - 2” began. You can attend webinars online (connection by prior request) or listen in recordings (also by request - recordings are not publicly available on the Internet]).
