Book Private Practices

Download or read book Private Practices written by Naoko Wake and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Private Practices examines the relationship between science, sexuality, gender, race, and culture in the making of modern America between 1920 and 1950, when contradictions among liberal intellectuals affected the rise of U.S. conservatism. Naoko Wake focuses on neo-Freudian, gay psychiatrist Harry Stack Sullivan, founder of the interpersonal theory of mental illness. She explores medical and social scientists' conflicted approach to homosexuality, particularly the views of scientists who themselves lived closeted lives. Wake discovers that there was a gap--often dramatic, frequently subtle--between these scientists' "public" understanding of homosexuality (as a "disease") and their personal, private perception (which questioned such a stigmatizing view). This breach revealed a modern culture in which self-awareness and open-mindedness became traits of "mature" gender and sexual identities. Scientists considered individuals of society lacking these traits to be "immature," creating an unequal relationship between practitioners and their subjects. In assessing how these dynamics--the disparity between public and private views of homosexuality and the uneven relationship between scientists and their subjects--worked to shape each other, Private Practices highlights the limits of the scientific approach to subjectivity and illuminates its strange career--sexual subjectivity in particular--in modern U.S. culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harry Stack Sullivan (1892-1949) has been described as 'the most original figure in American psychiatry'.

Book Interpersonal Psychiatry

    Book Details:
  • Author : P. Mullahy
  • Publisher : Springer Science & Business Media
  • Release : 2012-12-06
  • ISBN : 9401172927
  • Pages : 304 pages

Download or read book Interpersonal Psychiatry written by P. Mullahy and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An impressive amount of work, experimental, statistical and "observa tional" or "phenomenological" has been done in psychiatry during the past 30 to 40 years. Although Sullivan's achievements have placed him in the first rank of psychiatry, some of the work done since he died in 1949 can be assimilated to enchance his achievements. For this reason, I enlisted the aid of Menachem Melinek, M.D., whose wide knowledge of re cent and contemporary psychiatric studies is admirably suited to the task of assimilating some of them to Sullivan's theories. PATRICK MULLAHY Acknowledgments The authors wish to acknowledge with gratitude Mrs. Mari Hughes, formerly secretary, Department of Psychology, Manhattan College, for typing the original manuscript. Dr. Robert G. Kvarnes of the Washing ton School of Psychiatry, read the original manuscript and contributed several keen criticisms and suggestions for which we are grateful. We wish to express our thanks to the Department of Psychiatry, at Montefiore-North Central Bronx Hospitals for the support in preparing the final manuscript of the book.

We would like as well to acknowledge the support of the Department of Psychiatry at Bronx-Lebanon Hospital Center and its Director of Psychiatry, Dr. Harvey Bluestone.

Book Skin Acts

  • Author : Michelle Ann Stephens
  • Publisher : Duke University Press
  • Release : 2014-08-24
  • ISBN : 0822376652
  • Pages : 323 pages

Download or read book Skin Acts written by Michelle Ann Stephens and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2014-08-24 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Skin Acts, Michelle Ann Stephens explores the work of four iconic twentieth-century black male performers—Bert Williams, Paul Robeson, Harry Belafonte, and Bob Marley—to reveal how racial and sexual difference is both marked by and experienced in the skin. She situates each figure within his cultural moment, examining his performance in the context of contemporary race relations and visual regimes. Drawing on Lacanian psychoanalysis and performance theory, Stephens contends that while black skin is subject to what Frantz Fanon called the epidermalizing and hardening effects of the gaze, it is in the flesh that other—intersubjective, pre-discursive, and sensuous—forms of knowing take place between artist and audience. Analyzing a wide range of visual, musical, and textual sources, Stephens shows that black subjectivity and performativity are structured by the tension between skin and flesh, sight and touch, difference and sameness.
