The Body in the Text
Author: Evi Voyiatzaki
Publisher: Lexington Books
ISBN: 9780739103579
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
The Body in the Text highlights the importance of the body in language and narrative and its impact on meaning and signification. Evi Voyiatzaki's insightful work reveals the highly metaphoric and symbolic texture of James Joyce's Ulysses, which, the author contends, resembles the organization of a living organism. The book examines how the living meaning of the word in Joyce's texts has inspired the work of three avant-garde Greek writers: Nikos Gavrlil Pentzikis, Stelios Xefloudas, and Giorgos Cheimonas. A valuable comparison between Joyce's work and modern Greek literature, The Body in the Text's comparative exploration of the body's functions within literary discourse offers new insight into language's metaphoricity and the physiology of writing.

Soul Murder
Author: Leonard Shengold
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 0449905497
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
To abuse or neglect a child, to deprive the child of his or her own identity and ability to experience joy in life, is to commit soul murder. Soul murder is the perpetration of brutal or subtle acts against children that result in their emotional bondage to the abuser and, finally, in their psychic and spiritual annihilation. In this compelling, disturbing, and superbly readable book, Dr. Leonard Shengold, clinical professor of psychiatry at the New York University School of Medicine, explores the devastating psychological effects of this trauma inflicted on a shocking number of children. Drawing on a lifetime of clinical experience and wide-ranging reading in world literature, Dr. Shengold examines the ravages of soul murder in the adult lives of his patients as well as in the lives and works of such seminal writers as George Orwell, Dickens, Chekhov, and Kipling. One hopeful note in this saga of pain is that a terrible childhood can, if survived, be a source of strength, as Dr. Shengold finds in the cases of Dickens and Orwell. Provocatively original in its approach to literature and psychology, unsettling in its vivid portrayal of the darker side of human nature, far-reaching in its conclusions, Soul Murder will stand alongside such works as Alice Miller's The Drama of the Gifted Child as one of the most important studies of the psyche to appear in decades.

The Concept of a Philosophical Jurisprudence
Author: Michael Oakeshott
Publisher: Andrews UK Limited
ISBN: 1845403088
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 474
Book Description
This volume brings together for the first time over a hundred of Oakeshott's essays and reviews, written between 1926 and 1951, that until now have remained scattered through a variety of scholarly journals, periodicals and newspapers. A new editorial introduction explains how these pieces, including the lengthy essay on the philosophical nature of jurisprudence that occupies an important position in Oakeshott's work, illuminate his other published writings. The collection throws new light on the context of his thought by placing him in dialogue with a number of other major figures in the humanities and social sciences during this period, including Leo Strauss, A.N. Whitehead, Karl Mannheim, Herbert Butterfield, E.H. Carr, Gilbert Ryle, and R.G. Collingwood.

The 9 Insights
Author: Jeff Miller
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1418470600
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
A Woman's Relationship Survival Guide was written to assist women in learning how to better understand their behaviors and swirling emotions when under the influence of a relationship. The guide examines issues surrounding personal responsibility for choices we make and trails we take. Each chapter exposes several paths of opportunity and supports the strengthening and building of the inner self. Though life can become busy and relationships can be turbulent, we must stop at times to rethink just who we are, where we're headed, and what's really right for us as individuals. Besides, it's unfair to claim that our partner doesn't know or understand us if we don't really know or understand ourselves. The guide is not written to encourage role reversals. We should not mimic behaviors that we dislike the most in our partner while claiming to be a better person. The guide is not written to cheerlead the leaving of your partner at the rise of the slightest problem. Instead, the guide promotes healthy self-respect, self-reliance, and a reciprocal partnership. Happiness, contentment, stimulation, and security are signs of relationship stability. Daydreams of pepper spraying your partner to the point of satisfaction or frequent desires to slap the crap out of him are signs that you need to read deeper into this book (if, he's worth it).

Scientism: A New World Dream
Author: Greg Heard
Publisher: Austin Macauley Publishers
ISBN: 1685627315
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 791
Book Description
In Scientism: A New World Dream, the author delves into the rise of left-brain dominance in Western culture and its impact on our understanding of the world. The author argues that this shift has led to a more distanced and factual approach, akin to the denatured view of science and the emergence of scientism. Through examination of cultural movements throughout history, the author suggests that this mindset has resulted in a disregard for actual fact-checking and a reliance on ideas over reality, leading to the prevalence of fake news and opinions. This book provides a thought-provoking examination of the impact of scientism on our society and raises important questions about the nature of truth and reality.
