The 2019 Woodcock Memorial Lecture through Oregon Health & Science University’s Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
With Adam Phillips

 

Phillips is one of the world’s leading psychoanalysts and literary critics. Phillips has published over 20 books and his writing and interviews with him have appeared in The London Review of BooksThe Believer, and The Paris Review. He is the general editor of the Penguin Modern Classics Freud translations in which he aims to reinvigorate the literariness of Freud, to “…capture some of what has been lost in Freud: an unconscious and a conscious ambiguity in the writing, and an interest in sentences, in the fact that language is evocative as well as informative.” Phillips will be delivering two lectures while here in Portland: the first for a special psychiatry grand rounds Friday, November 8 at noon, entitled “Conversion Hysteria.” His second presentation will occur on Saturday, November 9 in a program that will run from 830-1pm and will include a conversation with Phillips and then a lecture entitled: “The Truth of Psychoanalysis.” We will share more details about the precise OHSU venue and details on Phillips’ presentations later this summer.
