Leon Brenner on Drive, Desire, Foreclosure, Love and Language's Relationship to the Body @RahulSam

Rahul Sam | Leon Brenner on Drive, Desire, Foreclosure, Love and Language's Relationship to the Body @RahulSam | Uploaded February 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Dr. Leon S. Brenner is a psychoanalyst & psychoanalytical theorist. His work focuses on the integration of philosophical and linguistic frameworks in the psychoanalytic theory of subjectivity and the understanding of the relationship between culture and psychopathology. He is the co-founder of Unconscious Berlin, and his latest book on the psychoanalysis of autism is called 'The Autistic Subject: On the Threshold of Language,' where he presents a novel account of autistic subjectivity from a Lacanian psychoanalytic perspective. In this episode, we discuss Žižek, Badiou, clinical and subjective structures, drive vs desire, autistic vs psychotic foreclosure, language's relationship to the body and what Lacanian psychoanalysis tells us about love.
