Seminar Description:

This seminar will focus on the interaction of ideas and clinical practice between the theories of Carl Jung and Wilfred Bion. This seminar will be divided into three sections. The first section will involve laying out the key ideas of Wilfred Bion as well as identifying the points of convergence, divergence, and complementation between the theories of Bion and Jung. The second section will highlight ideas that have built upon and expanded the work of Wilfred Bion, that is, the ideas of contemporary Bionian theorists, in particular Thomas Ogden, Antonino Ferro, and Giuseppe Civitarese. Ogden, Ferro, and Civitarese are three of the most influential writers in the contemporary psychoanalytic world. The final section will be a case supervision used to illustrate differences in Jungian and Bionian approaches to the unconscious.
