Seminar

On Hate and Love — Paola Mieli

The process of identification brings to the fore an intrinsic vulnerability toward otherness, grounding the forms of hainamoration (love/hate) proper to the subject of language, and their subjective and collective manifestations — also typical of the political domain. Identification, narcissism, and the sexual non-relation will be addressed, exploring the vicissitudes of hate and love, and the path toward a relation to otherness that reckons with the real of difference, moving beyond the myth of the One toward a practice of the not-all. 

Each meeting will include a discussion of specific readings, which will be decided meeting by meeting and posted on our website.

The meetings will take place Saturdays from 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM, on dates to be announced.

Location: In-person in NYC and online via Zoom.

Fee: $40 per meeting. Students with ID: $20 per meeting.

Registration: For more information, please call Paola Mieli at (212) 228-5120.
