Presenter: Richard Koenigsberg, Ph.D
Richard Koenigsberg is an author, lecturer and teacher focusing on the roots of
collective forms of violence. He received his Ph.D. in Social Psychology from
the Graduate Faculty of the New School for Social Research and is a Faculty
Member at the Boston Graduate School of Psychoanalysis. New editions of his
books—Hitler's Ideology: Embodied Metaphor, Fantasy and History, The
Nation: A Study in Ideology and Fantasy and The Fantasy of Oneness and
the Struggle to Separation: Towards a Psychology of Culture—recently have
been released by Information Age Publishing. Dr. Koenigsberg seeks to uncover
the ''hidden narratives'' that lie beneath the surface of culture and historical
process. He has pioneered a method for studying the ideas of political leaders
through analysis of images and metaphors contained within their rhetoric.
Program Objectives:
Specifically; Participants will be able to:
1) Gain familiarity with a method that enables one to uncover hidden narratives contained within ideological texts.
2) Analyze the symbolic meaning of ideological concepts such as “the enemy” and “defending the nation.”
3) Understand how violence is conceived as righteous and necessary when undertaken in the name of a society’s sacred ideals.
4) Understand how psychology can expand its role as a discipline and theory by interpreting events occurring outside the clinical situation.
