GG & Jungian analysis



À propos of the recent talk of psychoanalysis and Gould, I came across an
announcement for a lecture that might interest Gouldians in the Vancouver
area.  The information follows.

The C.G. Jung Society of Vancouver Presents a Public Lecture

Imagining Glenn Gould
by Dr. Lynne Walter

In the lecture Dr. Walter will focus on Glenn Gould, who, recognized as:
"Wunderkind" was one of distinguished [sic] Canadian classical musicians.
Interested in the psychological structure underlying his genius she did her
dissertation on the creative process, demanding involvement titled:
"Imagining Glenn Gould."

Whilst being conversant with and fascinated by Freudian psychoanalysis,
Gould appears to have had little contact with psychotherapy.  In assessing
individual psychic structures, one might ask, with Pilate: "What is truth?"
Combining the description of his outer life with a teasing-out of the
psychic underpinnings of that life, Dr. Walter will present this plausible
scenario of Gould's psychological structure from a Jungian point of view.

[about the lecturer]:
