Bergs tein has lectured widely in the UK\, the US\, and throughout Europe. \n  \;\n \n Summary \;\ n \n Sigmund Freud&rsquo\;s great modernist invent ion\, the theory and practice of psychoanalysis\, occurred in a visual domain where representations of erotic and scientific knowledge were frequently similar\, contiguous\, or superimposed. The term &ldquo\;psychoanalysis&rdquo\; here refers not onl y to Freud&rsquo\;s writings directly but should b e taken in the spirit of the &ldquo\;whole climate of opinion&rdquo\; that W.H. Auden (1907-1973) sp oke of in his memorial poem of 1939. \n \n My new book (Bloomsbury 2024) investigates the social his tory of what we call &ldquo\;visual culture&rdquo\ ; around 1900 in Vienna\, including image-systems that hover around the uneasy juncture of science a nd eros. I would argue that photography\, film\, g raphic design\, apparel design\, illustration\, an d archaeological photography not only reflected id eas already in force in Vienna around 1900\, but e stablished networks of cultural meaning\, bringing into being what might be referred to as a &ldquo\ ;psychoanalytic imagination.&rdquo\;\n \n \n From& nbsp\;Freud&rsquo\;s thinking on the sublimation o f libido and his later theorisation of the Life an d Death Drives\, to \;Klein&rsquo\;s work on r eparation and the recovery of the good object and Winnicott&rsquo\;s ideas of creative living\, psyc hoanalysis has always been interested in creativit y. \;\n \n In the fourth Maudsley summer serie s on arts and psychoanalysis\, we continue to expl ore this theme of creativity between internal and external worlds in dialogue with artists from a ra nge of different perspectives: from the natural to the built world and ceramics to literature and th eatre.\n \n \n REFUND POLICY: Tickets are fully re fundable until 14 days before the lecture\, after which time no refunds will be issued.\n \n Concess ion tickets are available\, for students\, BPAS ca ndidates and NHS trainees and nurses.
