Published in 1915 as part of Freud’s ‘Metapsychological Papers’, Instincts and their Vicissitudes is a central text in the development of Freud’s theory of the instincts, and crucial for an understanding of the later theoretical developments in Beyond the Pleasure Principle (1918).

The group will meet from 23 January – 20 February. The weekly meetings will take place online on Tuesdays, 17.30 – 19.00 GMT. All attendees will be emailed the recording of each session afterwards to catch up. The group’s capacity is limited to 10 people only.
