Lucas Ferraço Nassif at the University of Essex and the Freud Museum

Lucas Ferraço Nassif will be present at the Nature and Its Discontents Conference SIPP/ISSP (International Society of Psychoanalysis and Philosophy), happening on June 25-27 at the University of Essex in Colchester and on June 29 at the Freud Museum in London.

On June 27, he will give a presentation titled "Multiplanar Unconsciouses: Studying Ferenczi’s Thalassa with Lacan’s symbolic and Guattari’s ecology".

In this talk, Lucas Ferraço Nassif will conceptualize the death-image with the Lacanian categories of real, symbolic and imaginary. For that, he will breach the divides between nature and culture by studying Japanese television animation and the unconscious.

The full program, abstracts included, for Nature and Its Discontents is available here.
