IN PERSON – Territorial Listening, with Emília Estivalet Broide & Jorge Broide

About this event

This ticket is for IN-HOUSE access to this event. ________________________________________________________________________ The Freud Museum is delighted to host the book launch of ‘Territorial Listening and Psychoanalysis in Critical Social Situations: Building Clinical Dispositifs’, edited by Brazilian psychoanalysts Emília Estivalet Broide and Jorge Broide (1968 Press, 2026, The Important Little Books in Psychoanalysis Series, in English translation from Portuguese). This evening symposium dedicated to the book (6:00pm – 9:00pm), with the presence of the editors and many of the contributors (members of the collective Rede SUR), is available both in person and online. It will be followed by a wine reception (9pm – 10pm). Territorial Listening is an event. Its authors start from the premise that cities and streets, much like dreams, present us with manifest and latent contents that are expressed in unconscious ways. The psychoanalyst does not listen only to an individual utterance but to the territorial relations in which it is embedded and where its meaning lies. Starting from Brazilian scenes of listening, Emília Estivalet Broide and Jorge Broide – together with their many collaborators, the ‘Rede SUR’ or ‘South Network’ – construct an entire vocabulary around territorial listening. They ‘listen everywhere’ in the territory, in an embodied manner: in places where people queue for food, in places where police violence takes place, in playgrounds.
