Introduction to the Autumn Series and Key Figures

The podcast begins with an introduction to an event launched by the Freud Museum as part of their Autumn Series, which is set away from the museum itself and connects to Freud's legacy. Danny Nobis, the chair of the museum, highlights the prominence of Adam Phillips, a well-known psychoanalyst and cultural figure, and author of the latest volume titled 'Becoming Freud.' Nobis also introduces Lisa Appignanesi, a noted novelist and cultural commentator, who will engage Phillips in conversation about his work, setting the scene for an intellectually stimulating discussion that bridges psychoanalysis and broader cultural themes.
