Psychoanalysis Across the Disciplines at Warwick University

Psychoanalysis Across the Disciplines is an Institute of Advanced Study research network designed to bring together researchers and practitioners at Warwick and elsewhere whose work draws on any aspect of psychoanalysis.
 
We are keen to establish possibilities for internal and external collaborations across different disciplines and to contribute to current debates on the place of psychoanalysis in the academic, cultural, and clinical fields. We welcome communication from those who would like to contribute to and draw from the network.
 
This term our activities are organised under the broad themes of Psychosis, Trauma, and the Body. Please email us if you would like to be included in our network list and receive notification of our events psychoanalysis@warwick.ac.uk

The Sceptre Press Talk at Cadbury Research Library

The Sceptre Press, founded in the 1960s by poet and writer Martin Booth, published previously unpublished works by poets including Ted Hughes, Seamus Heaney and Sylvia Plath.  In this talk Martin Killeen, Rare Books Librarian at the Cadbury Research Library, will shed light on the interesting work of this little known press, followed by the opportunity to view and handle the elegant slim volumes produced by the press as well as typescripts and letters from Martin Booth’s archive.
