The event is chaired by Dr Calum Neill, Director of Lacan in Scotland, and the presentation is prefaced with comments by Stefan Marianski and Jamie Ruers, the editors of the newly released book &#8216;Freud\/Lynch: Behind the Curtain&#8217;.

In this special LiS event, Olga Cox Cameron will be presenting her contribution to a new collection of essays, Freud\/Lynch: Behind the Curtain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cox Cameron finds in Lynch\u2019s 2001 masterpiece Mulholland Drive a text replete with the mechanisms of the dream-work identified in Freud\u2019s Interpretation of Dreams. Yet if Mulholland Drive lends itself to Freudian dream-logic, it also invites us, with Lacan, to pose a series of questions on the relationship between the unconscious cipher and the magnetising power of trauma. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Placing the film alongside James Joyce\u2019s Finnegan\u2019s Wake as rare examples of artworks which succeed in reproducing dream logic and considering Freud\u2019s 1900 dream theory in light the developments of Beyond the Pleasure Principle, this talk examines the film with reference to the question posed by Lacan in relation to Freud\u2019s famous \u2018Irma\u2019 dream: given that the dream repeatedly comes up against something that provokes anxiety, what allows the dreamer to continue dreaming? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cox Cameron\u2019s presentation will be prefaced with some introductory comments by the book\u2019s editors, Jamie Ruers and Stefan Marianski. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-pale-ocean-gradient-background has-background\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\">Book Launch Event at the Freud Museum<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">If you&#8217;re in\/near London, you don&#8217;t want to miss <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.freud.org.uk\/event\/freud-lynch-book-launch-a-twin-peaks-day-event\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.freud.org.uk\/event\/freud-lynch-book-launch-a-twin-peaks-day-event\/\" target=\"_blank\">the book launch event of &#8216;Freud\/Lynch: Behind the Curtain&#8217;<\/a> on Friday 24 February 2023 at the Freud Museum.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>OLGA COX CAMERON&#8217;S<\/strong> first career was in literary studies, having written an MA thesis on Proust, worked as a tutor in the Department of French at University College, Dublin, and started\u2014but not completed\u2014 a PhD on Beckett at the University of Fribourg in Switzerland.
