Description

Writing and the Unconscious

This series is hybrid, participants are welcome to join in person or online.

This series explores the link between literature and psychoanalysis, focusing on how listening – to the self and language- and writing can access the unconscious. It covers both classic ideas like free association and broader expressions across different literary forms, drawing on figures such as T. S. Eliot, Mary Barnes, and Sigmund Freud.
