LITERATURE + LECTURES

The Jung Center of Houston presents Seinfeld: The Continuing Search for Meaning, with Edward Applebaum, PhD, Wednesdays, 5:45 - 7:15 pm, Sept 15 - Oct 27 (no class Sept 29)

What can we learn by talking, endlessly, about nothing? We will continue our survey of the world according to Seinfeld with new episodes in this continuing saga. We will study the inner relationships between Jerry, George, Elaine and Kramer with particular attention to those psychological forces which motivate each of them.

We will also focus on their seemingly effortless abilities to dramatically change the moods and dialogues. Most important, we will attempt to define the existential force that guides the entire series....which is, as Jerry says, nothing.

Ed Applebaum, PhD, composer and conductor, has taught at the Shepherd School of Music at Rice University and in the UH Honors College. He conducts research on depth pscyhology and the arts.
