(20th meeting)
It was an encounter quite exceptional, unique and unexpected. Unexpected because, during the preparation of this meeting between these two authors, but even during their conferences, it became important bridges, commonalities between their work, their research, work that, a priori , had nothing in common. Well, yes! Despite the distance in time and space, despite the gap between two subjects, the late Greek theater, and a historical, political, social, psychoanalytical and especially epistemological transmission patriarchal and biased reading of Freud, well, the meeting took place. Magical moment shared by a larger support than ever.
* Don Juan is the figure of a son forced to feel alive, to break away from patriarchal domination which makes women and son. At the dawn of the twentieth century, in a similar pullout that Freud invented psychoanalysis by listening to women crazy making this submission. But his theoretical construction based on the Greek myth of Oedipus to restore order that excludes the Fathers Women of the transmission. The guilt of the son would ensure essential repression of their impulses and access to the highest values of civilization. The author, psychoanalyst practitioner, questioned the validity of this theory in a world where women take their full part in the life of the city. It proposes to build on these new relationships between the sexes to pacify the transmission between generations.
