Download or read book Human Interaction and Emotional Awareness in Gestalt Therapy written by H. Peter Dreitzel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-03-25 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Human Interaction and Emotional Awareness in Gestalt Therapy H. Peter Dreitzel explores a model of the contacting processes between human beings and their environments and presents a phenomenological exploration of the emotions guiding such contacts. The book makes an important contribution to our understanding of the role of psychotherapy in the modern world, especially in the context of change and crisis. Dreitzel sets out a new perspective of how we interact with each other, how we frame our encounters and differentiate them from one another, how we give them meaning, and how they are related to our needs and wants. This is followed by a unique phenomenological exploration of the emotions guiding such contacts, the first time the world of human feelings has been explored in depth and systematically analysed in Gestalt thought. These innovative explorations are framed first by a discussion of the historical development of Western conventions regarding everyday behaviour, and secondly by an examination of perspectives on climate change. Dreitzel analyses the mental and emotional states of potential clients as they are affected by these global processes and the book also includes an epilogue which evaluates how to work with climate anxiety. Dreitzel’s conception of social change, with Gestalt therapy at its core, is relevant to all aspects of humanistic psychology. It elevates empathy, emotional development and the prevention of suffering at all levels of society, filling important gaps in Gestalt therapy theory and expanding it into exciting new territory. Human Interaction and Emotional Awareness in Gestalt Therapy also contains an insightful foreword by Michael Vincent Miller, PhD, and will be essential reading for Gestalt therapists, other professionals with an interest in Gestalt approaches and readers interested in social interaction, climate change and the role of psychotherapy in a changing world.

Download or read book The Art of Reconciliation written by D. Petersson and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-05-14 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dag Petersson offers a comprehensive critique of the philosophy that has dominated 200 years of modern thought, politics, economy, and culture. The basic question is this: why does dialectical metaphysics fail to keep what it promises? What is it about dialectics, that makes it fall into irreducibly distinct variations of itself, when all it promises is to synthesize, to reconcile and make whole what is fragmented and alien to itself? An undisciplined creativity intrinsic to completing reason comes to light through analyses of how dialectical systems begin. Every dialectical philosophy must account for its own birth, and it is at this point, when it also articulates its promise of universal synthesis, that the book discovers a desire for light-writing, or photography. Only the most immediate element light can mediate the necessary self-determination of thought at its origin. Light must begin to write. A philosophical critique of dialectics is therefore also a point of departure for a new aesthetic ontology of photography.

This book was released on 2018-07-12 with total page 692 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sociocultural psychology is a discipline located at the crossroads between the natural and social sciences and the humanities.

Download or read book Photostories written by Ricardo Gomez and published by Ethics International Press. This book was released on 2024-08-06 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In today's complex and interconnected world, understanding the lived experiences of underserved and marginalized communities is of paramount importance. Traditional qualitative research methods often fall short in capturing the rich, multifaceted narratives of these communities. This book seeks to address this gap by introducing "Photostories" as an innovative and transformative method for conducting qualitative research. Photostories harness the power of participatory photography to enable individuals from underserved and marginalized communities to visually articulate their stories, experiences, and perspectives. “Photostories” aims to be a pioneering resource for researchers, educators, and practitioners seeking to add a participatory visual method to their menu of research approaches, while at the same time offering ways to empower marginalized communities and amplify their voices through the transformative power of photography. By delving into the nuances of Photostories, readers will gain valuable insights into a groundbreaking research method that has the potential to reshape the way we conduct qualitative research and engage with underserved populations. Scholars in the social sciences, anthropology, sociology, psychology, and related disciplines will benefit from the methodological insights, practical guidance, and case studies presented in the book.

Download or read book German Art 1907 1937 written by Martin Ignatius Gaughan and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the responses of visual artists, including architects, designers and photographers, to the technological and social modernisation of Germany during the first three decades of the twentieth century. It investigates how these aspects of the modernising process inform both the subject matter and formal innovations of their work. The study analyses how these visual practices were not just the concerns of isolated and enclosed art worlds but had wider social resonances, ranging from the debates concerning the reformist objectives of the Deutscher Werkbund (1907) to the National Socialist ideological onslaught on modernist culture culminating in the Entartete Kunst (Degenerate Art) exhibitions of 1937. Many of the artists encountered here were radicalised by the First World War, the Russian Revolution and the November 1918 Revolution in Germany, experiences which effected change in their conceptualising of cultural production and its social function: their modes of working, however, would also set challenging markers for what forms art might take for the twentieth century. The book is, therefore, both a study of art in complex political and sociocultural contexts and a reflection on how engagement with a social imagination can challenge a tradition based on the assumptions of individual imaginings.

Book excerpt: Interdisciplinary perspectives on the feature of conscious life that scaffolds every act of cognition: subjective time. Our awareness of time and temporal properties is a constant feature of conscious life. Subjective temporality structures and guides every aspect of behavior and cognition, distinguishing memory, perception, and anticipation. This milestone volume brings together research on temporality from leading scholars in philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience, defining a new field of interdisciplinary research. The book's thirty chapters include selections from classic texts by William James and Edmund Husserl and new essays setting them in historical context; contemporary philosophical accounts of lived time; and current empirical studies of psychological time.
