Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 357
Book Description
Metaphor, though not now the scholarly mania it once was, remains a topic of great interest in many disciplines albeit with interesting shifts in emphasis.Warren Shibles' Metaphor: An Annotated Bibliography and History (Bloomington, Ind. 1971) recorded the initial interest. Then Metaphor: A Bibliography of Post-1970 Publications, published by John Benjamins, continued the record through the mania years up to 1985 when writings proliferated as metaphor was seen to be a fundamental category in human thought and language.Five years later, there is a need for a report on the newest thinking and tendencies in the field. This need is fulfilled by Metaphor II which offers a comprehensive view of information which would otherwise remain scattered throughout a numbing plethora of resources, including many sometimes-hard-to-find publications from Eastern Europe.Metaphor II systematically collects references of books, articles and papers published between 1985 and May 1990, and includes for completeness corrections and additions to the earlier bibliographies. Abstracts are given for many of the titles, while four indices (disciplines, semantic fields, metaphor theory and names) multiply the number of access points to the information.

Counseling Is Like-
Author: Margaret Ross
Publisher: Trafford Publishing
ISBN: 1412005264
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
Counseling is Like...The Use of Analogies in Counseling explores a way of working with students who might be resistant to the concept of counseling. Through the use of analogies, students seem to be leess resistant to the process. Analogies also help us to better understand the point of reference for the student. The use of analogies is not a new experience for most people. If you listen to everyday speech, you will find most people using analogies to describe a situation, how they feel, or what they want to do. Analogies are a way of talking about experiences. We each experience life uniquely, so it is not possible to communicate identical interpretations of our experiences. Analogies help define our experiences to others by creating colored pictures. Like a collage, layers of meaning are built from expansion of the analogy in exploration of its likeness and dissimilarities to the experience being described. In working with students many resistances are bypassed when you tell a story. Analogies develop a kind of story, a word-picture. The counselor can make contact with the student, a primary goal of counseling, through these creative encounters. As you are developing an analogy together, the counseling process unfolds in a way that is less threatening to the student. Included in the book are some guidelines on when and how to use analogies. There is also an example of how to construct an analogy with a student. Counseling is Like... presents analogies in six major categories: the art of counseling, counselor growth, student growth, habits and good mental health relationships and endings. READER REVIEWS Counseling is Like. . . The use of analogies in counseling by Margaret Ross, Ph.D. is a practical and creative guide for shaping the counseling process. Dr. Ross marvelously provides a wide array of analogies that can be used in the counselor-student exchange. She provides an analogy that can guide many scenarios that a counselor can expect to encounter. For example, Dr. Ross provides analogies that can used for student issues of self-esteem; learning how to make decisions and solving one's problems; helping students to take responsibility for their future in spite of past experiences; students in a state of panic; students seeking a sense of belonging; addressing poor academic work; developing healthy habits; managing relationships; and allowing students to grow at their own pace. Dr. Ross approaches counseling from a student (client) centered perspective. She uses analogies to ensure the counseling process is not centered on the counselor. Dr. Ross stresses that the counseling process is two-way and that analogies evolve through collaborative creativity between counselor and student. She describes how problems may be common but the personal contexts of these common problems can be quite different and thus require very different intervention strategies. In the process, both the student and counselor grow from their exchanges. As Dr. Ross points out, each of us hold very different frames of reference that influence how we view events and situations. Counselors need to learn as best they can about the frames of reference of the students who seek counseling and concomitantly be in touch with their own frame of reference. Dr. Ross stresses that it is essential for counselors to be aware of the impact of their opinions of themselves in various situations and other life issues that may influence the counseling interactions. She emphasizes the focus be on students since it is the student's needs that are to be met. Dr. Ross provides a no-nonsense, straight forward, informative, and readable resource for dealing with a variety of single and multi-dimensional issues with students. While this resource is intended for counselors, it can serve as a valuable reference for all persons who have frequent interactions with students, including facult

Arts therapists are becoming increasingly interested in process as it is manifested in their work. The multiplicity of levels at which process operates is the theme of this new book.
