Psychopathy Awareness and #MeToo with Claudia Moscovici and Titti Damato

  • Summary

  • Join host Andrea Schneider for a global discussions of psychopathy awareness and the intersection of the #MeToo movement with Claudia Moscovici and Titti Damato.

    Claudia Moscovici, founder of Psychopathy Awareness Blog (psychopathyawareness.wordpress.com) joins Andrea Schneider, LCSW today to discuss the prevalence of psychopathy and the covert nature of this form of psychological abuse. She shares with listeners her expertise on how the public can be informed and protected from psychopathic (and narcissistic) abuse.

    Moscovici was born in Bucharest, Romania. At the age of 12, she immigrated with her family to the United States where she has gone on to obtain a B.A. from Princeton University and a Ph.D. in Comparative Literature from Brown University. Moscovici taught philosophy, literature and arts and ideas at Boston University and at the University of Michigan. Born in Bucharest, Romania, she writes from her experience of life in a totalitarian regime, which marked her deeply.

    In 2002, she co-founded with Mexican sculptor Leonardo Pereznieto the international aesthetic movement called “Postromanticism”,[2] devoted to celebrating beauty, passion and sensuality in contemporary art. She wrote a book on Romanticism and its postromantic survival called Romanticism and Postromanticism, (Lexington Books, 2007) and taught philosophy, literature and arts and ideas at Boston University and at the University of Michigan. Most recently, she published a nonfiction book on psychopathic seduction, called Dangerous Liaisons (Hamilton Books, 2011) and a psychological thriller called The Seducer (forthcoming in March, 2012), which tells the story of a woman lured by a dangerous psychopathic predator.

    Titti Damato is an Italian journalist who has recently acquired a degree in psychology. Having herself been a victim of a pathological person, she was interested in finding out more about that individual's behavior and found Claudia's blog. She not only read this blog, but also translated it and created the Italian blog, https://relazionipericoloseblog.com/il-blog-italiano-di-claudia-moscovici/. The Italian blog includes information and articles from Claudia's blog and books (the nonfiction Dangerous Liaisons and the novel The Seducer) as well as numerous other helpful articles provided by Titti herself and other contributors. She contacted Claudia to let her know about this Italian blog and they communicated by Facebook and became collaborators and friends. Together they decided to try to publish Claudia's book on psychopathy, Dangerous Liaisons, in Italian (Relazioni Pericolose) because there seemed to be little awareness about such dangerous individuals in Italy. Titti was instrumental not only in finding a publisher (Edizioni Sonda), but also in translating the book and launching it at the Feltrinelli Bookstore in Rome and at the Italian Parliament (Camera dei Deputati). Right now, they are working together on doing the same for Claudia's novel on psychopathy, The Seducer. Claudia considers her not only a great translator and what the Italians call "curatore" (media promoter, event launcher and translator all rolled up in one role), but also a great friend, educator on the subject of personality disorders and victims' advocate. She has collaborated with public figures and made big strides in Italy in informing the public about personality disorders and dangerous individuals.
