This performance-lecture is an unconventional treatise that explores the lineage of the narcissistic-capitalist subject as the dominant neurotic way of being in the present world and its relation to the chronic discontent in society.Is it narcissism that drives capitalism, or is it capitalism that drives narcissism? Hilda Fernandez, a practitioner of Lacanian psychoanalysis in Vancouver, delves into psychoanalytic and social theory to ponder how the phallic self-image intertwines with the Freudian drive to arrive at the hegemonic capitalist discourse. She will consider the implications of this new human animal we have designed today and will relate it to its shadow side, the pervert.Hilda transforms into the narci-capitalist and in her reading, she tenses what possible relations between the individual and the collective, the private and the political, the conscious and unconscious.The Narci-capitalist is you - come and see your reflection.Panelists:Samir Gandesha who is an Associate Professor in the Department of Humanities and the Director of the Institute for the Humanities.Clint Burnham is an Associate Professor in the English Department at Simon Fraser University.
