This fall's meeting of The American, to be held December 14-18 [1994] in New York, will feature two panels on the work of Erik Erikson.  Given Erikson's recent death and a  growing interest in the reciprocal influence of inner and outer worlds, these presentations have special significance.  The first of the two panels, both chaired by John Munder Ross and reported by Ellen R. Peyser, will focus on Childhood and Society.  Panelists include Calvin Colarusso, Elizabeth Lloyd Mayer, and Robert Wallerstein, while Arnold Cooper will serve as discussant.  The second panel will look at Erikson's classic paper of 1950, "The Dream Specimen in Psychoanalysis."  Panelists are Harold P. Blum, Stanley J. Coen, and Stanley R. Palombo.  The panels are scheduled for Saturday, December 17.
