Analecta (1)The Society for Theoretical Psychoanalysis in Ljubljana is an organisation that works on conceptual development of psychoanalytical theory in relation to philosophy. Its engagement in contemporary critical theory, ethics, structuralism and philosophy is closely related to the Slovene Lacanian School, some texts of which have been translated into English and German, including 'Everything you Always Wanted to Know about Lacan'. It was this same group which established the so-called 'Ljubljana Film School'.
The Society has published the psychoanalytical and cultural studies journal Revija Problemi since 1962. In 1985 it launched the Analecta book series which now comprises more than 60 publications. These are translations of theories (Spinoza, Hume, Hegel, Kant, Derrida, Lyotard, Badiou, etc) with thorough commentaries as well as texts by the leading Slovene theoreticians in the field. Most of its publications are available on the website.
Members of the Society for Theoretical Psychoanalysis are regular guests of eminent universities in Europe and America, and several of their books have been translated into foreign languages The Society for Theoretical Psychoanalysis has also established the ideas institution Agalma, which organises lectures by the Society members and guests. In 2005 Agalma hosted lectures by Giorgio Agambena, Mladen Dolar, Alenka Zupančič and Slavoj Žižek.
