First Seminar of 2020: Oedipus Constructed (Finally)
February 1, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 12:30 pm
The first seminar will introduce a retranslation of a crucial passage from Freud’s 1921 Massenpsychologie Und Ich–Analyse translated by Strachey as Group Psychology and the Ego. For those attending the seminar, it is important to read Strachey’s translation, Chpt. VII On Identification, of Group Psychology and the Ego – taking special note of where Freud introduces the distinction between object-choice and identification in the formation of the Oedipus Complex.
You will find an introduction to my retranslation in the articles on Medium:

Oedipus Warped https://medium.com/@Simplicus/oedipus-warped-7adff3705f42
The third part of this three-part series will be distributed in the Seminar, then a topological construction will be introduced to account for its development.
