Event:The Modern Erotic: A multi-disciplinary international conference
Venue:The Anna Freud Centre, London
Date:08/06/2013
Duration:1 day
Extra Info:Lou Andreas Salomé wrote The Erotic (1911) before she met Freud. The recent English translation of her groundbreaking book encourages us to consider how a century of social change has affected erotic behaviour, and what this may mean for psychoanalysis. In a world of online porn, internet dating and digital emotions, what are the contours of ‘the erotic’ in the world today? Do we really live in a post-repression age?

This interdisciplinary conference explores the significance of contemporary erotic life for human relationships and psychoanalytic theory and practice.

Speakers include:

Susie Orbach, Jane Haberlin, Gary Winship, Josh Cohen, Gohar Homayounpour, Suzi Godson and David Morgan

Organised By:The Freud Museum
