“Terenti Graneli — Life and Work: Psychoanalytic Perspectives”

The Academy of Thinking will host salon-style conversations with Gia Chanturia, psychotherapist and psychoanalyst from the Academy’s Mental Health Center “Integra.”

Topic: “Terenti Graneli — Life and Creativity: Psychoanalytic Approaches.”

Terenti Graneli was a poet who transformed his pain, tragedy, and melancholy into words. Gia Chanturia will explore his poetry through a psychoanalytic lens:
How are Graneli’s inner conflicts encoded in his poetics?
How does a melancholic state become a source of creative energy?
And how does his language manage to touch the unconscious parts of our psyche?

This meeting is for those who see literature not only as text, but also as a psychological process, and who wish to approach poetry from new and unexpected perspectives.

A reception and a warm atmosphere await the guests.

Duration: 2–3 hours.
