  19th Conference of the European Psychoanalytic Federation Opening Presidential Address by Evelyne Séchaud Athens! Here we are in Athens warmly invited by the Hellenic Psychoanalytical Society, presided over by Stavroula Beratis, for the nineteenth Conference of the European Psychoanalytical Federation, which since 2002 has taken place annually. It is a very great pleasure indeed for me to welcome all the colleagues and candidates who have come from thirty four component societies and study groups of the EPF, as well as colleagues from North America and South America. We are also very honoured to have with us the President of the IPA, Claudio Eizirik, and the members of the IPA Executive, Monica Siedman de Armesto, Secretary General, and Nadine Levinson, Treasurer, as well as the President of the American Psychoanalytic Association, Jon Meyer, and the President elect, Lynn Moritz. Alvaro Rey de Castro, President of the FEPAL, who had hoped to join us but had to cancel his trip due to an accident (fortunately, not too serious), is represented today by Alceu Roberto Casseb, Treasurer of the FEPAL. As you have been well informed, it has been a year of particular organizational problems due to the unavailability for several months for health reasons of our assistant in London, Nancy Poller. Nevertheless, with the help of Esmée Taylor and the Gerber and Reusch agency, the material side of the conference organization has been carried out as well as possible. Our organization, which replies on a very small number of individuals, has been subject to a test of its fragility that we have tried to overcome through intensive work, but which undoubtedly has not allowed us to satisfy all the exigencies of a Conference with a scope as wide as ours. I am thus asking you for your indulgence for the organizational questions which you may very well be led to complain about! I should like to introduce you to our Executive Committee, which has had the important task of organizing the Conference: Vincenzo Bonaminio, Vice President and Chair of the Programme Committee responsible for the main theme, Peter Wegner, Vice President, Anna Danielsson-Berglund, Secretary General, Duveken Engels, Treasurer, and Jordi Sala, General Editor. The Conference I am opening today has been preceded by a certain number of scientific activities. In particular, the small clinical groups which have developed in more and more frames, those of the Working Parties such as the Working Party on Comparative Clinical Methods chaired by David Tuckett, or the Forum on Clinical Issues chaired by Haydée Faimberg, or still more the clinical groups which have examined the principal theme of the Conference through the angle of resistances to transformations. The regular Pre-Conference, given by the Forum on Child Analysis, chaired by Angelica Staehle and Angela Joyce, and that given by the Forum on Adolescent Analysis, chaired by Anna Maria Nicolò, have taken place successfully, but I should like to mention that child and adolescent psychoanalysis is increasingly included in the works presented in the different panels on the principal theme. Lastly, the very lively and fruitful Conference of the IPSO also took place before the main Conference. Organized in Athens by Anna Christopoulos, these meetings offered theoretical and clinical papers and supervisions which have always attracted an important and very interested public. As a tradition has now been established, this Conference offers a wide choice of many scientific activities. Those proposed by the different Working Parties constitute a singularity of the EPF supported not only by the EPF Executive but also by the ensemble of the European presidents. Over the past four years they have received the financial support of the IPA in the frame of the DPPT Programme. This programme, set up by the IPA in order to find the means of facing the crisis in psychoanalysis, has had the effect of strengthening the active participation of numerous analysts and of contributing to the struggle against external and internal resistances to psychoanalysis. The Working Parties are conceived as research groups: three among them are pursuing projects that will be presented during the Conference: the Working Party on Comparative Clinical Methods chaired by David Tuckett; the Working Party on Education, chaired till now by Gabrielle Junkers, who no longer wishes to manage it, will now be chaired by Mira Erlich, who will see that its works in progress are pursued; and the Working Party on Initiating Psychoanalysis, chaired by Bernard Reith, is involved in a very active research programme. The Working Party on Theory, chaired by Jorge Canestri, will conclude its work this year by presenting a book containing its results; and the Working Party on Interface, chaired by Shmuel Erlich, has also completed its research undertaking. A new Working Party, whose management I shall provisionally take responsibility for this year, on the Specificity of Psychoanalytic Treatment Today, offers clinical and conceptual research work in small clinical groups within local societies; groups that will work on the same research axis as the international clinical groups that will meet at the Conference in 2007. This new Working Party will include the participation of colleagues from other regions of the IPA, from North America and South America, and it hopes to participate in a new programme of the Committee on Analytic Practice and Scientific Activities (CAPSA) initiated by Claudio Eizirik, President of the IPA. The clinical groups on the main theme which have just taken place, seen from the angle of resistances to transformations in the process, are intended to be part of this Working Party. Our first plenary session is devoted to the principal theme which we have retained for this year with the collaboration of the Programme Committee presided over by Vincenzo Bonaminio, Psychic Transformations in the Psychoanalytic Process, a theme that will be examined from different theoretical and clinical perspectives. Athens provides us with many metaphors of transformation: the modern Athens, the Athens of the recent Olympic Games with spectacular transformations; the ancient Athens, the cradle of our western civilization whose philosophy, architecture and theatre so greatly marked Freud’s thought. All of these works are the result of the processes of sublimation which are one of the drive transformations under the influence of Kulturarbeit, the work of culture. In analysis, it is the meeting with the object, the object to be seduced, loved and hated, which opens up the possibilities for psychic transformations. Has this not already been staged in the myth of Zeus transforming himself into a swan in order to seduce Leda?
