Download or read book Parris Mitchell of Kings Row written by Henry Bellamann and published by Rare Treasure Editions. This book was released on 2021-11-09T17:20:00Z with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this sequel to Kings Row, Parris Mitchell is definitely the proponent of the story - and not Kings Row itself. Parris has achieved his goal as psychiatrist (still a young profession in the Midwest of the First World War) in his home town hospital - but he is still somewhat in need of his own medicine, as he tries to rationalize his marriage with Elise, emotionally a child-wife. Kings Row seems still to have a predominant percentage of abnormal personalities, but there are a few to offset them. There's melodrama here, perversion too, violence in a near-lynching and a rape with its tragic aftermath. There's the back-biting and bitter jealousies of small town life, which lead to Parris' loss of his job, until the flu-epidemic gives him a chance of a comeback. In plot structure, in character and mass of incident, there is a similarity of appeal in Parris Mitchell of Kings Row and a worthy sequel to the first book.

Book C G Jung

    Book Details:
  • Author : E. A. Bennet
  • Publisher :
  • Release : 2006-05-01
  • ISBN : 9781630510503
  • Pages : 192 pages

Download or read book C G Jung written by E. A. Bennet and published by . This book was released on 2006-05-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: E.A. Bennet's biography of C. G. Jung went to press just a few days before Jung's death in 1961. Over the preceding fifteen years, Bennet had met frequently with Jung at his home and stayed there as his guest. Their many talks-about Jung's childhood, his family, his career and the development of his ideas-yielded the material for this authorized biography. In the months before publication, Jung read and corrected Bennet's book in typescript, making this the only biography of Jung to have been written during the subject's life with his supervision and approval. Thanks to Bennet's unique opportunities to hear Jung's personal perspective-on subjects from Freud to Hitler, and including a valuable correspondence about Aion, regarded as Jung's most "difficult" book-C.G. Jung sheds new light for today's scholars on Jung's work and on the man himself. Edward Armstrong Bennet (1888-1977), a psychiatrist and Jungian analyst, held degrees from Trinity College in philosophy, theology, and medicine and was well known as an outstanding psychotherapist and lecturer. In addition to being Jung's student and colleague, he was also a close personal friend for three decades. Bennet was a leader in introducing Jung's psychotherapeutic approach to the English-speaking world. He was the author of several books.

Book American Small Town Fiction  1940 1960

Download or read book American Small Town Fiction 1940 1960 written by Nathanael T. Booth and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2019-01-29 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In literature and popular culture, small town America is often idealized as distilling the national spirit. Does the myth of the small town conceal deep-seated reactionary tendencies or does it contain the basis of a national re-imagining? During the period between 1940 and 1960, America underwent a great shift in self-mythologizing that can be charted through representations of small towns. Authors like Henry Bellamann and Grace Metalious continued the tradition of Sherwood Anderson in showing the small town--by extension, America itself--profoundly warping the souls of its citizens. Meanwhile, Ray Bradbury, Toshio Mori and Ross Lockridge, Jr., sought to identify the small town's potential for growth, away from the shadows cast by World War II toward a more inclusive, democratic future. Examined together, these works are key to understanding how mid-20th century America refashioned itself in light of a new postwar order, and how the literary small town both obscures and reveals contradictions at the heart of the American experience.
