#56 narcissisms & Identifications

Three narcissisms and three forms of identification.

#54 The Banshees of Inisherin

This film by Martin McDonagh describes the inhabitants of a small island in Ireland at the end of the war between Protestants and Catholics in 1923. In this community, no psychiatrist, no recognition of any mental illness. Even a gravissimo autumutilation is not recognized as the sign of psychotic tips. This leads us to question the roles of the psychiatrist and the psychoanalyst in the city, from their absence.

#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
