Book Freud on Instinct and Morality

Download or read book Freud on Instinct and Morality written by Donald C. Abel and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1989-01-01 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines Freud's changing views of human instincts, exploring the moral and social implications. Part One investigates Freud's concept of instinct and discusses the phases of his ongoing attempt to classify the instincts. In Part Two the author argues that Freud's instinct theory leads to a moral philosophy, and he relates this philosophy to Freud's views on group psychology. The notion of instinct is central to psychoanalytic theory, but never before has it been treated so comprehensively, with such close attention to the text. Nor has anyone previously examined in detail the moral and social implications of Freud's instinct theory. In examining these implications, Abel bridges the fields of psychology and philosophy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Killer instinct is an aggressive tenacious urge for domination in a struggle to attain a set goal. If you say that a sports player or politician has the killer instinct, you admire him for his toughness and determination to succeed.We don’t strive to go the extra mile, which is the toughest in any endeavour. We should not create an impression that there’s nothing more to achieve. Complacency and overconfidence are proven recipes for disaster. Winning isn't about finishing in first place. It isn't about beating the others. It is about overcoming yourself, overcoming your body, your limitations, and your fears. Winning means surpassing yourself and turning your dreams into reality. Success is an excellent acquired quality of a person to sustain a strong spirit which can willfully overpower the dictums of mind

Book Human Hope and the Death Instinct

Download or read book Human Hope and the Death Instinct written by David Holbrook and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human Hope and the Death Instinct: An Exploration of Psychoanalytical Theories of Human Nature and their Implications for Culture and Education focuses on the study of human nature. The manuscript first offers information on psychology as a form of philosophical anthropology and reactions against the Freudian theory, including the origins of love and hate, death instinct, and metapsychology and negation. The book then discusses human nature and the development of object-relations psychology. Topics include the theories of W. R. D. Fairbairn on love and structure of personality; relationships of psychology, poetry, and science; Fairbairn’s analysis of the logic of hate; and Melanie Klein’s concept of phantasy and aggression. The text evaluates the relationships of identity and social theory, education, culture, and moral development, as well as amorality, progress, and democracy. The manuscript also discusses the connection of psychoanalysis and existentialism, including Jean-Paul Sartre’s concept of freedom and R. D. Laing’s position on existentialism. The book is a vital source of data for readers wanting to study human nature.
