Thanks. Two points; It would have been useful to know some of Winnicott's views of Lacan and his methods when he undertook the investigation. Secondly, is the popularity of Lacan in South America an outcome of the lectures he gave there?
Great question Stephen! As a Brazilian psychoanalyst, I would like to say that Lacanian psychoanalysis is very popular in Latin America for many reasons, but particularly because it was connected with the left parties that fight against dictatorship, it was more affordable than the traditional IPA model and it spreads around regions where IPA never was able to spread. In Brazil for example, the majority of the psychoanalysts are Lacanians, and this movement starts in the early 70’s, before Lacan lecture in Caracas.
Her name is pronounced /Sokolnitska/. Polish ortography does not adapt the dutch (I think) convention to pronounce 'ck' as /k/. If you know German it's pronounced like German 'z'. Please remember that. Thank you.
