Dear All,
Happy New Year! I hope you all had a restful holiday and are looking forward to the new term. Details of the full Centre for Gender and Religions Research seminar and reading group programme for the Spring Term will be emailed to you shortly.
This coming Tuesday (6th January) at 13:00 we will be privileged to have the well-known psychoanalyst Professor Juliet Mitchell speaking at our seminar (which for this week is moved from its usual slot on Wednesdays). Juliet Mitchell is Professor Psychoanalysis and Gender Studies and a Fellow of Jesus College Cambridge. She is a Full Member of the International Psychoanalytic Society. Her books include: Mad Men and Medusas: Reclaiming Hysteria and the Effects of Sibling Relations on the Human Condition; Women: the Longest Revolution; Psychoanalysis and Feminism and Women’s Estate. Her latest book, Siblings: Sex and Violence, will be published by Polity Press in October 2004.
Her talk will discuss the absence of lateral relations in psychoanalytic theory and argue for their importance.
A second email will be circulated to you tomorrow once the room number has been confirmed.
