Presenter and Awardee: James Herzog, M.D.
The talk will examine the ways in which previous “child analyses” are regarded by a 70-year-old man who re-enters psychoanalysis. It will explore the relationships between his own memories, historical realities and his ‘inscape.’ The talk will consider the influence of the child analyst’s theory on his or her technical stance and the ways in which these “technical matters,” “ideologies” or other agendas shape meaning and memory for the analysand. It will also examine the roles of curiosity, compassion and what Dr. Herzog calls ‘safety.’
