    TWO RENEGADE SEXOLOGISTS: ON PSYCHOPATHIA SEXUALIS & THE SEXUAL CRIMINAL: A PSYCHOANALYTIC STUDY with Dr. Mikita Brottman
    This lecture considers the life and work of two renegade sexologists: Richard von Krafft-Ebing, and J. Paul de River. The aristocratic Krafft-Ebing was a German psychiatrist and author of the seminal Psychopathia Sexualis. J. Paul de River was the chief psychiatrist of the Los Angeles Sex Offense Bureau during the 1940s and author of The Sexual Criminal: A Psychoanalytic Study. The work of these two eccentric, obsessive, and sometimes deluded psychiatrists provide compelling time-capsules into the dark underbelly of 19th century Vienna, and the sordid backstreets of mid-century Los Angeles.
    Mikita Brottman is Professor of Literature at the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore. She has a D.Phil from Oxford University in English Language and Literature, and is an NAAP certified psychoanalyst. She performs forensic evaluations for the National Institute for the study, prevention and treatment of sexual trauma. She is also the author of 15 nonfiction books, the latest of which, Guilty Creatures (Simon & Schuster, 2024) was described by the New York Times as “an unputdownable read.” https://mikitabrottman.com

    Welcome to a very special episode of Rendering Unconscious podcast!
    As TODAY is the one year anniversary of the inaugural event of RU Center for Psychoanalysis, I have turned the very first RU Center event into an episode of RU POD.
    Rendering Unconscious episode 411.
    This episode is the very first event for Rendering Unconscious Center for Psychoanalysis, which celebrates the book The Queerness of Psychoanalysis (2025) and the launch of RU Center. To begin, I outline some of the goals of RU Center for Psychoanalysis, highlighting upcoming courses and events, including my Introduction to Psychoanalysis class. Myriam then presents her chapter, “Emptiness is the Cure for Psychoanalysis,” from The Queerness of Psychoanalysis (2025) in which she looks at the work of Swiss psychoanalyst Danielle Quinodoz, who wrote up an early trans* affirmative case study. Some themes of the discussion that follows include the alienation experienced by trans individuals in the field of psychoanalysis and the potential for transness to challenge rigid norms, gender and otherwise, emphasizing the need for a trans-affirmative psychoanalysis and the importance of questioning societal norms.
    I am posting this event for everyone as a celebration of the official opening of RU Center for Psychoanalysis!

    Join author Carl Abrahamsson for a guided exploration of the life and work of J. G. Ballard, one of the most visionary writers of the modern world. Ballard saw science fiction not in distant galaxies, but in the landscapes we already inhabit: highways, high-rises, airports, and shopping malls.

    Carl Abrahamsson is the author of more than 20 books, many of which are inspired by his decades of experience working with occulture and magic. He is also the editor and publisher of the occultural journal The Fenris Wolf (1989-present day). He lives with his wife, American psychoanalyst Vanessa Sinclair, in Vimmerby, Sweden. https://linktr.ee/CarlAbrahamsson
