In March, we will be discussing:

Tomkins, S. "Anger in Depressive Scripts", AIC (Vol. 3, Chapter 35: pp. 839-856).

* Derry Taylor, Gökhan G.nül, Cameron Alexander, Klaus Züberbühler Fabrice Clément and Hans-Johann Glock (2023), "Reading minds or reading scripts? De-intellectualising theory of mind", Biological Reviews 98, 2028–2048.

Readings include not only the work of Tomkins (specifically, we are reading through the volumes of his

magnus opus Affect, Imagery, Consciousness) but of other researchers related to Affect Script theory.

These are relatively casual Zoom interactions, but participants are expected to have, at minimum, a mid-level knowledge of Tomkins’ basic ideas, particularly affect theory and the innate activator model. Sessions are held the last Monday of each month at 7:30 pm and typically last 90 minutes.
