New international content
We’re delighted to announce that we have added Revista de Psicoanálisis, a publication of the Asociación Psicoanalítica Argentina (APA), Volumes 1-27 (1943 – 1970) to PEP-Web.
We also added The Chinese Annual of the International Journal of Psychoanalysis earlier this year. Find out more.
“My working definition of psychoanalysis is that it’s the disciplined study of whatever it is people do not want to know about themselves.”
(Warren S. Poland, Insights in Psychoanalysis)
Our film collection
PEP-Web’s got an expanding collection of films, documentaries and interviews about psychoanalysis. In each newsletter we’ll be sharing some of our favourites. Insights in Psychoanalysis is a series of interviews with the world’s most cited analysts. There’s already over 20 available on PEP-Web and the aim is to produce 100.
PEP-Web film wins award
The Mourning After, a film directed by Donna Bassin and funded by PEP-Web, has won the prestigious Gradiva Writer and Directors Award.
The film explores how US veterans are turning the traumatic grief of war into community activism and art. A round-table discussion by senior psychoanalysts illuminates the therapeutic action embedded in these restorative and redemptive activities
