Book excerpt: Ever since antiquity, but increasingly since the global transformation of the world order in the early modern period, communication between members of different cultural groups depended on translators, diplomats, traders, and other specialists with a knowledge of both cultures. Successful communication and traffic relied on the mediating agency of persons who had been exposed, often in their childhood or through captivities, to the customs and languages of both cultures involved in the contact. Other border crossers and go-betweens acted as missionaries, traders, political refugees, beachcombers, pirates, anthropologists, actors in zoos, runaway slaves, and itinerant doctors. Because of their frequently precarious lives, the written traces left by these figures are often thin. While some of their lives have to be carefully reconstructed through critical readings of the documents left by others (frequently by their enemies), others have left autobiographical texts which allow for a richer assessment of their function as cultural border crossers and mediators. With examples covering from various historical periods between the early modern period and the present, as well as geographical areas such as the Mediterranean, Africa, the Americas, Hawaii, New Zealand and northern Europe, scholars from various disciplines and methodological backgrounds - reaching from history to religious studies and from literary studies to ethnology - fathom the intricacies of in-betweeness and reflect on the impact which "agents of transculturation" have in situations of cultural, social and political encounters.
Download or read book Psychoth rapie et relations humaines written by Carl ROGERS and published by ESF Sciences Humaines. This book was released on 2016-11-21 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le but de cet ouvrage est de synthétiser et présenter les théories de Carl Rogers basées sur ses pratiques thérapeutiques. Sa conception d'une psychologie humaniste, qui s'est développée dans les années 1950, représente véritablement la troisième force de la psychothérapie, aux côtés de la psychanalyse et des thérapies comportementales. La pensée de Rogers est plus que jamais dans l'air du temps puisqu'on s'aperçoit, en fat, que nombreuses pratiques ou techniques d'aujourd'hui sont issues de ses travaux (CNV, coaching, cellules de crise prychologique, questionnaires d'enquêtes...). La notion rogérienne de l'écoute a influencé et précédé de plusieurs décennies les récentes découvertes de la psychologie dans ce domaine. Le lecteur trouvera dans ce livre d'une part, les aspects théoriques de l'approche de la thérapie de Carl Rogers, thérapie centrée sur la personne (appelée également non directive). D'autre part, sont aussi présentées dans cet ouvrage les bases de la pensée de l'auteur se fondant sur une théorie de la personnalité et de la dynamique du comportement humain, ainsi qu'une vision des relations humaines et ses réflexions sur un fonctionnement optimal de la personnalité.

Download or read book The Fall of Public Man written by Richard Sennett and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2003-01-30 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE FALL OF PUBLIC MAN is a book in the great tradition of sociological scholarship. Sennett writes first of the tension between the public and private realms in which we live, arguing that different types of behaviour and activity are appropriate in each. He argues that the barrier between these different realms has been eroded, and that this breakdown is so profound that public man has been left with no certain idea of his role in society. Sennett sees the development of the city as the single most important element of the social change he describes, and puts his argument in its historical perspective through an analysis of the changes in our built environment from the 18th century to the present day.
