École de la Cause Freudienne – Latin Seminar of Paris: “The Clinic of Excess.” Conversation with Domenico Cosenza.
On September 24th, 2025, the Latin Seminar of Paris organized, as part of the series “Signifiers of the Times,” a conversation with Domenico Cosenza around his book The Clinic of Excess (published in 2022). This meeting allowed the French-speaking public to discover the author’s perspective on a central issue of our era. Following a brief analytical commentary, each speaker posed questions concerning what Cosenza calls the “new symptoms”: pathologies of excess, eating disorders, addictions, and the dynamics of disconnection-hyperconnection in adolescence; all phenomena centered on a “jouissance in the margin of the Other.” Although the work was translated into Spanish and Portuguese in 2024, it has not yet been translated into French.
