- Library Talk host Leon Brenner talks to Avgi Saketopoulou, author of "Sexuality Beyond Consent". In this book, Saketopoulou challenges the cultural obsession with healing trauma. Instead she focuses on what traumatized individuals do with their pain. Drawing from queer theory, performance studies and critical race theory, Saketopoulou weaves together contemporary works and clinical case studies to arrive at a new ethics for dealing with difference and power.
Dr. Avgi Saketopoulou is a psychoanalyst living and practicing in New York City. She is on faculty at the NYU Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis, where she also trained and teaches in other psychoanalytic institutes, such as the William Alanson White Institute. Her published work has received the Ralph Roughton Award, the annual JAPA Essay Prize, the Symonds Prize and the Ruth Stein Prize. Her interview on relational psychoanalysis is in the permanent collection of the Freud Museum in Vienna and she is the 2022 recipient of Div.39’s Scholarship and Research Award. Her monograph, Sexuality Beyond Consent: Risk, Race, Traumatophilia is published by the Sexual Cultures Series, NYU Press. In 2021 she received, with Dr. Ann Pellegrini, the International Psychoanalytical Association’s first Tiresias Essay Prize. That essay appears in their book Gender Without Identity, published in 2023 from The Unconscious in Translation Press.
Leon S. Brenner is a lecturer at the International Psychoanalytic University, Berlin. He is a member of the APPI, LOB, and a founder of Lacanian Affinities Berlin (laLAB) and Unconscious Berlin. His latest book on the subject of the psychoanalysis of autism is called The Autistic Subject: On the Threshold of Language, where he presents a novel account of autistic subjectivity from a Lacanian psychoanalytic perspective.
