Beskrivning

Movement, Velocity, and Rhythm from a Psychoanalytic Perspective: Variable Speed(s) explores philosophical and psychoanalytic theories, as well as artworks, that show sensible bodily rituals for reviving our social and subjective lives. With a wide range of contributors from interdisciplinary backgrounds, it informs readers on how to find rituals for syncing ourselves with others and world rhythms. The book is divided into three parts on variability, speed, and slowness, and explores rhythmic rituals of renewal, revolution, and reflection. Each chapter provides unique examples from the applied arts, film, television, and literature to show how different practices of rhythm might aid in creative and deep contemplation and includes philosophical and cultural theories for bodily and rhythmic renewal. Without being limited to a clinical perspective, this book provides wide-ranging discussions of the relation between rhythm, trauma, cultural studies, psychosocial studies, continental philosophy, critical psychology, Lacan, and film, to explore modes of becoming more attuned to each moment, to others, and to our own era. Movement, Velocity, and Rhythm from a Psychoanalytic Perspective will be essential reading for Lacanian psychoanalysts in practice and in training, as well as anyone interested in rhythm at the intersection of Lacanian psychoanalysis and continental philosophy.

Recensioner i media

“With deep acumen, Movement, Velocity, and Rhythm from a Psychoanalytic Perspective reveals how neoliberal capitalism’s performance principle drives us to the brink of destruction, suggesting that opting out of it altogether may be the only way toward a more rewarding life. Slowing down may be our only way to survive, let alone flourish, as we fight for our future and the future of our planet.” Mari Ruti, Distinguished Professor, University of Toronto, Canada “In this fine-tuned collection taking the pulse of the social unconscious, rhythm is shown to be everywhere. Tracking its beat in films, series, and novels, eight compelling essays build a cadence of meaning that resonate together when exploring the psychoanalysis of revolution or stasis, fever or convalescence, the synergy or suspension of time in dance and trauma, the capitalist speeding up of life intersecting with the unwinding of the Anthropocene.” Patricia Gherovici, Psychoanalyst and author of Transgender Psychoanalysis: A Lacanian Perspective on Sexual Difference (Routledge)
