| Lutecium a non-school of Lacanian/Freudian Psychoanalysis San Francisco, California |
| Introduction to Lacan -seminar- Kristopher Lichtanski Ph.D. |
In this Introduction to Lacan seminar we will use historical, literary, case, and contemporary political and social issues to explore,
viscerally and critically, the ways in which a Lacanian framework can address the complex issues that we face today as
psychoanalytically oriented clinicians or psychoanalytically informed academics.
Utilizing a selection of readings from a range of disciplines and topics, the Winter 2011 seminar will focus on exploring and
expounding Lacan’s concepts of the three registers (imaginary, symbolic, real) and the associated constructs, while creating a space
to make this material relevant to each participant’s own academic or clinical interests. The structure of the seminar will permit an
individualized pace of learning the concepts while together we will have a chance to reflect on what sort of knowledge(s) Lacanian
psychoanalysis produces.
The seminar fee includes five seminar sessions and admittance to one of the Lutecium’s Winter Immersion events of each of the
participant’s choice.

“Psychoanalysis is a praxis of the particular, a shifting set of theoretical coordinates constantly in the process of being
transformed with each and every instance of [its] application.” (A. Johnston reflecting on A. Vanier’s reading of J. Lacan)
