Jean-Jacques Allégret and Pierre Baron evoke this topological structure that Lacan uses in particular in the four concepts of psychoanalysis and in the Analytical Act
#50 Reading "The Man with the Tape Recorder" and "Zoo Story", second part
It is by noticing a particular resemblance between the recording of “The Man with the Tape Recorder” and Edward Albee's play “Zoo Story” that Jean François La Bouverie and I have decided to bring them together during a reading. In the first it is an internment by proxy, and in the other of a suicide by proxy.
The previous workshops about a tape recorder are #46 and #49
Pierre Belon and Jean-François La Bouverie present their experiences of their encounter with the Man with the Tape Recorder, text encounter for one, by a meeting for the other.
In the aftermath of the workshop where we could hear a reading of Peter Brook's play “I am a phenomenon”, We try to answer the question “Can we be normal without repression?” This phenomenal human has full access to his memories since he was 1 year old. He is obliged to invent a method of forgetting to prevent filling up his memory. As we could presume , no satisfying response has been provided to this question.
This is a capture of a private reading of Peter Brook's play “I am a phenomenon”. Played by the actors Jean-François La Bouverie, Jules Lanzaro, Justine Schmitt. This is the play based on the essay of A . R. Luria about a mnemonist with a phenomenal memory ability. His name is Solomon Veniaminovitch Shereshevskly.
Jean-Jacques Abrahams, being in an analysis process during 20 years in Brussels, decided some day to come with a tape recorder at his session and record it. The consequences have been catastrophic for the psychiatrist . We listen to this recording again and have tried to point out the errors in the conduct of the analytical treatment..
To listen to the recording, it's: ici
#45 A cosmogony compatible with the subject's structure of the unconscious?
Elements of the topology of the cosmos by Jean-Pierre Petit, the Janus model are presented by Gérard Crovisier. The unexpected is, except for one detail, This model joins the conception of the subject that we taught us Jacques Lacan. So there are two parts; in the first half-hour Gérard Crovisier explains this cosmogony; in the following I will take up the structure of the real, the symbolic and the imaginary according to J. Lacan, and the few inflections which invoke compatibility with the model invented by Petit and its consequences at the clinical level.
An oriented tetrahedron makes it possible to explain the movements present in the discourses about the master, on the hysterical, on the university and on the analyst. Also some remarks on the refusal of the Catholic Church and the Lutheran Reformation to recognize heliocentrism.
Henry Fontana gave me his approach to the life and death of Giordano Bruno. I had not read the text he sent me on this topic and therefore I said several wrong things. Here is his text:
In 1600, Robert Bellarmin, Jesuit, presides over the tribunal of the Inquisition which condemns and has Giordano Bruno executed by the stake.
R. Bellarmine had designated himself as the “hammer of heretics”.
In 1616, during the Galileo trial, still president of the Inquisition tribunal, he threatens Galileo and reminds him of what he himself had stated in 1600 during Giordano Bruno's trial, namely the formal ban on teaching heliocentrism “anywhere and in any way” (teach in any way whatsoever) under penalty of being condemned for heresy.
Robert Bellarmine was declared a saint by the Church in 1930.
In 1600 after the conviction of Giordano Bruno, Galileo and Kepler had written a joint testimony: they recognized that they themselves had not sufficiently supported their colleague!
I spoke of Luther when it was about the Calvinists known as Huguenots in Switzerland while the Lutherans are on the Germanic side. Calvin had since died 1564.
