In this seminar Janet Sayers will draw on material from her recently
published biography of the art critic, Adrian Stokes. In particular she
will focus on philosophical and emotional factors contributing to
Stokes's emphasis on art as emblem of the realisation of inner life in
outer Form; on his psychoanalytic treatment by Melanie Klein; and on his
subsequent psychoanalytic account of art in ways which prefigure today's
psychoanalytic attention to chaos and its containment.
