TIMON OF ATHENS
by William Shakespeare
Timon, a rich and
generous Athenian, showers his friends with gifts and
hospitality. When the money runs out and his friends refuse to
help, Timon turns into a savage misanthrope.
Matinee
performance 2pm on Saturday 13 September 2008
At Shakespeare's Globe,
21 New Globe Walk, Bankside, London SE1
Followed at 6pm by a talk in the Nancy Knowles Theatre
A Manic Depressives Attitude to Money in Our Contemporary World
In contemporary discussion there is much talk about financial
uncertainties and lack of adequate regulation from above. There
have been psychoanalytic contributions to the debate and a
history of analytic thinking about money, control and
regulation. These issues are particularly interesting in
relation to Shakespeares play Timon of Athens which is
not only his most manic depressive play but has attracted
articles from economists since Karl Marx. It seems particularly
apt that we take the opportunity to discuss this infrequently
performed play and consider the applicability of its ideas to
our contemporary world.
The
discussion will be led by contributions from:
Lucy Bailey,
director of the play, and
Prof. Andrew Hadfield, Shakespeare Scholar
Chair:
Gerald Wooster

A FOUNDATION
COURSE IN PSYCHOANALYSIS
This new course is aimed at those who seek a deeper
knowledge of psychoanalytic ideas and their application to
clinical work. It will be of particular interest to those
who may wish to pursue a future training in
psychoanalysis.
Entry to the course is open to all postgraduate professionals
- both those working in the field of mental health (
psychiatrists, psychologists, counsellors, psychotherapists,
doctors, nurses, social workers and teachers) and other
professionals, as well as recently qualified graduates, who are
thinking about a career in psychoanalysis, but who have not yet
had any clinical experience.
Whilst the Introductory Lectures Course precedes the Foundation
Course, it may not be necessary to have attended the
introductory lectures before applying to this course.
The course will take place on Friday afternoons between l pm
and 3.30 pm throughout the academic year and will offer
theoretical seminars (l Ό hours) followed by clinical work
discussion seminars (11/4 hours). Help in finding a suitable
honorary placement may be offered to those participants who have
had no prior experience in the field of mental health.
The course fees for the foundation course are £1200 per
year.
Personal psychoanalysis is not required.
