POETRY OF DREAMING AND DE-PERSONALIZATION

Saturday, December 5

9:00 AM – 12:30 PM

Wilson Hall, 234 Herrick Rd

Newton Centre, MA 02459

Presenter: Giuseppe Civitarese, PhD

Discussant: Lawrence J. Brown, PhD

Moderator: Michele Baker, MD

Dr. Civitarese considers de-personalization, a split between mind and body, as it is exemplified in examples from poetry and literature.  As the infant’s ability to transform emotions to meaning is acquired by use of another (mother’s) mind, problems of the capacity to contain and transform emotions are healed in the work of analysis by use of the analyst’s mind and unconscious.  Making use of the Bionian language of “Effectuality” and “Aesthetic communication,” Dr. Civitarese shows how the poetry of dreaming, nocturnal or waking, allows us to rediscover the psycho-somatic unity of experience inside ourselves and between us and the other.
