Clinical Interaction and the Analysis of Meaning
Author: Theo L. Dorpat
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134887183
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
Clinical Interaction and the Analysis of Meaning evinces a therapeutic vitality all too rare in works of theory. Rather than fleeing from the insights of other disciplines, Dorpat and Miller discover in recent research confirmation of the possibilities of psychoanalytic treatment. In Section I, "Critique of Classical Theory," Dorpat proposes a radical revision of the notion of primary process consonant with contemporary cognitive science. Such a revised conception not only enlarges our understanding of the analytic process; it also provides analysis with a conceptual language that can articulate meaningful connections with a growing body of empirical research about the development and nature of human cognition. In Section II, "Interactional Theory," Miller reverses the direction of inquiry. He begins with the literature on cognitive development and functioning, and proceeds to mine it for concepts relevant to the clinical process. He shows how a revised understanding of the operation of cognition and affect can impart new meaning to basic clinical concepts such as resistance, transference, and level of psychopathology. In Section III, "Applications and Exemplifications," Dorpat concludes this exemplary collaboration by exploring select topics from the standpoint of his and Miller's new psychoanalytic theory. At the heart of the authors' endeavor it "meaning analysis," a concept that integrates an up-to-date model of human information processing with the traditional goals of psychoanalysis. The patient approaches the clinical encounter, they argue, with cognitive-affective schemas that are the accumulatice product of his life experience to date; the manifold meanings ascribed to the clinical interaction must be understood as the product of these schemas rather than as distortions deriving from unconscious, drive-related fantasies. The therapist's goal is to make the patient's meaning-making conscious and thus available for introspection.

Decadent Romanticism: 1780-1914
Author: Kostas Boyiopoulos
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317154118
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
For Decadent authors, Romanticism was a source of powerful imaginative revisionism, perversion, transition, and partial negation. But for all these strong Decadent reactions against the period, the cultural phenomenon of Decadence shared with Romanticism a mutual distrust of the philosophy of utilitarianism and the aesthetics of neo-Classicism. Reflecting on the interstices between Romantic and Decadent literature, Decadent Romanticism reassesses the diverse and creative reactions of Decadent authors to Romanticism between 1780 and 1914, while also remaining alert to the prescience of the Romantic imagination to envisage its own distorted, darker, perverted, other self. Creative pairings include William Blake and his Decadent critics, the recurring figure of the sphinx in the work of Thomas De Quincey and Decadent writers, and Percy Shelley with both Mathilde Blind and Swinburne. Not surprisingly, John Keats’s works are a particular focus, in essays that explore Keats’s literary and visual legacies and his resonance for writers who considered him an icon of art for art’s sake. Crucial to this critical reassessment are the shared obsessions of Romanticism and Decadence with subjectivity, isolation, addiction, fragmentation, representation, romance, and voyeurism, as well as a poetics of desire and anxieties over the purpose of aestheticism.

Organ Orgasms
Author: Robert Ian Rollwagen
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1525562916
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 428
Book Description
Conscious blood flow (CBF) is about enhancing our physical, mental, and spiritual wellbeing through the pleasurable and mindful exercising of your body’s internal arteries and organs. This is brought about by becoming attuned to your natural abilities to just “be” and by learning to sense your interior body, and then being able to consciously direct and control the flow of your blood. And, one can orgasm many organs, hence the book’s title of Organ Orgasms. Despite the catchy (but true) title, this book is about the mystery and joy of experiencing one’s existence in a unique way (an aspect of being), and about discovering our bodies and nourishing them so we can experience our lives in the healthiest and longest way possible (an aspect of wellbeing). Thus, Organ Orgasms is really about being and wellbeing. It will enable people (no matter what stage they are at in life) to see more clearly into themselves, and then use the book as a guide in developing their own personal plan for living more joyously and healthily. Organ Orgasms is not formulaic or like other self-help books, but it will help people learn how to take care of themselves better and get them re-thinking about their purpose in life and ensure their wellbeing. The book is written for the lay reader and includes over 150 extremely useful illustrations. Yet, it has also been cleverly crafted to meet the needs of the scholarly reader by the use of endnotes and appendices, which provide a stunning amount of scientific evidence for how the body, brain and mind work to make CBF possible.

Hang on to your dog tags. The ride’s about to get bumpy. Love or duty? From the Petite Marine First Sergeant in Cinderella Wore Combat Boots, the two larger than life brothers fighting in the American Revolution in Seducing Liberty, to Gunny in Being Prince Charming, each hero and heroine must face their biggest fear. For First Sergeant Cori Valentine, civilian life is not an option, even if the Marine Corp is giving her the boot. Can she embrace her future and walk away from all she knows? Sol, a hot Navy SEAL, can help her with that. All she has to do is reach out and take a chance. If she will, he promises to show her the night of her life, and help her find her place beyond the gates. “You’re no Prince Charming!” Words screamed in anger end in an unwanted divorce. For military spouses, the duty to country can sometimes cost more than they are willing to pay, and the toll it takes on Gunny’s marriage is devastating. August has put in his time, but so has Lissa, his wife, but he fails to see it until it’s too late. Now, Gunny has one night to prove he can be the man she needs outside the Marine Corp. If he fails, she’ll marry another in the morning. Out of the mists of time rides a story of espionage, rebels and a country fighting for its freedom. Madelyn, an actress, can’t separate the costumes from the real Revolution. Something seems off. When real musket balls are fired in her direction, she realizes she’s no longer on a set and her deepest desire to have one night with two hunky Culper spies, could cost her life.
