Introduction by Noreen Giffney (Cinematic Encounters with Violent Trauma and Its Aftermath)

An international, interdisciplinary initiative that brings together clinical, theoretical and artistic approaches to, and applications of, psychoanalysis. To read about the Psychoanalysis + initiative, see https://breac.nd.edu/articles/psychoanalysis-in-ireland-an-interview-with-dr-noreen-giffney/

DESCRIPTION
Psychoanalysis + is an international, interdisciplinary initiative founded and developed by psychoanalytic psychotherapist and psychosocial theorist Dr Noreen Giffney. It foregrounds psychoanalysis as a clinical practice and a theoretical tool for understanding culture, society and politics. Psychoanalysis + brings together individuals interested in clinical, theoretical and artistic approaches to, and applications of, psychoanalysis.

Psychoanalysis + points to the collaborative and interdisciplinary nature of projects and events forming part of the initiative. Psychoanalysis exists in an interdependent and mutually enriching relationship with the cultures and societies within which we as clinical and theoretical practitioners find ourselves. The ‘+’ in the title gestures towards the fact that psychoanalysis is always more than itself. In other words, psychoanalytic practitioners have always drawn on and incorporated insights from other clinical and non-clinical fields into our work, for example, literature, psychiatry, music, neuroscience, art, psychology, mathematics, medicine, philosophy, nursing, classics, social work, film, gender and sexuality studies, theatre and so on. The space between ‘psychoanalysis’ and ‘+’ recognises the gap needed for productive things to happen which cannot be known in advance. The ‘+’ also symbolises an openness to new possibilities and collaborations.
