Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sigmund Freud. Biografía de un deseo analiza las circunstancias socio-históricas y culturales que modularon el pensamiento de Freud, orientaron su existencia, amasaron su carácter e incidieron en sus descubrimientos y en la sistematización de su obra. En este texto se alternan el relato sincrónico y el diacrónico. Comienza por una puesta en escena, una ubicación socio-histórica del personaje, dentro de su tiempo, de su lugar de nacimiento y de vida, entre las circunstancias históricas, profesionales y socioculturales en las que se desarrolló, hasta su muerte en el exilio. Al mismo tiempo, va indagando y profundizando en su biografía para atisbar los fundamentos y condicionantes de su pensamiento, en ese proceso evolutivo y progresivo hacia el descubrimiento espeleológico de las cavernas profundas de la mente, a partir del cual va construyendo piedra a piedra el edificio de una teoría psicológica con la que revolucionó las concepciones vigentes sobre la estructura profunda del ser humano y sobre su sentido existencial. Este ensayo biográfico está escrito con un estilo directo y ameno, como si el autor conversara con el lector en un ambiente de cordialidad y confianza.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los profundos dinamismos que intervienen en el mecanismo de nuestro deseo y subyacen al desarrollo de nuestra personalidad van siendo sistemáticamente revelados, reconocidos y analizados en este libro. Sigmund Freud fue pionero en la exploración de los "continentes sumergidos de la mente" donde yacen los restos de naufragios existenciales y los tesoros insospechados del alma humana. Los conceptos fundamentales que forman el tejido ideológico del Psicoanálisis, las ideas más controvertidas de las teorías de Freud, como las referentes a la Sexualidad, al Complejo de Edipo, a la Represión, al control de los Instintos, a la Libido, al Placer, al Super-Yo... se van revelando y clarificando en este libro de un modo comprensible, incluso aplicables al propio conocimiento. Siguiendo el símil del psicoanalista Oscar Pfister: "Freud ha ideado un 'microscopio del alma', que permite observar y comprender las raíces de las funciones mentales, y su desarrollo y dinamismo" .

This book was released on 2019-08-16 with total page 873 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aniversario 27 de la investigación bioenergemal ['espiritual']. Patriarcas, profetas, Buda, Jesús, María, José y socios, lamas y Mahoma se disculpan con sus seguidores por el milenario engaño que han promovido. Todas las figuras religiosas se promueven parasitando sueños, provocando en el soñante escenas e imágenes favorables o desfavorables según a ellas les convenga. Sin este recurso, ellas no hubieran podido publicitarse. Dudas como éstas del Concilio Vaticano II quizá propiciaron el biocolapso ['fallecimiento'] de Juan XXIII. No obstante, este libro no es sobre las religiones, sino acerca de quiénes las figuras religiosas, y muchas personas más, fueron y son. ¡Información excepcional!
Download or read book Until Tuesday written by Luis Carlos Montalvan and published by Hachette Books. This book was released on 2011-05-03 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A heartwarming dog story like no other: Tuesday, a lovable golden retriever, changes a former soldier’s life forever. A highly decorated captain in the U.S. Army, Luis Montalván never backed down from a challenge during his two tours of duty in Iraq. After returning home from combat, however, his physical wounds and crippling post-traumatic stress disorder began to take their toll. He wondered if he would ever recover. Then Luis met Tuesday, a sensitive golden retriever trained to assist people with disabilities. Tuesday had lived among prisoners and at a home for troubled boys, and he found it difficult to trust in or connect with a human being–until Luis. Until Tuesday is the story of how two wounded warriors, who had given so much and suffered the consequences, found salvation in each other. It is a story about war and peace, injury and recovery, psychological wounds and spiritual restoration. But more than that, it is a story about the love between a man and dog, and how, together, they healed each other’s souls.
Download or read book The Knotted Subject written by Elisabeth Bronfen and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surrealist writer André Breton praised hysteria for being the greatest poetic discovery of the nineteenth century, but many physicians have since viewed it as the "wastebasket of medicine," a psychosomatic state that defies attempts at definition and cure and that can be easily mistaken for other pathological conditions. In light of a resurgence of critical interest in hysteria, leading feminist scholar Elisabeth Bronfen reinvestigates medical writings and cultural performance to reveal the continued relevance of a disorder widely thought to be a romantic formulation of the past. Through a critical rereading, she develops a new concept of hysteria, one that challenges traditional gender-based theories linking it to dissatisfied feminine sexual desire. Bronfen turns instead to hysteria's traumatic causes, particularly the fear of violation, and shows how the conversion of psychic anguish into somatic symptoms can be interpreted today as the enactment of personal and cultural discontent. Tracing the development of cultural formations of hysteria from the 1800s to the present, this book explores the writings of Freud, Charcot, and Janet together with fictional texts (Radcliffe, Stoker, Anne Sexton), opera (Mozart, Wagner), cinema (Cronenberg, Hitchcock, Woody Allen), and visual art (Marie-Ange Guilleminot, Cindy Sherman). Each of these creative works attests to a particular relationship between hysteria and self-fashioning, and enables us to read hysteria quite literally as a language of discontent. The message broadcasted by the hysteric is one of vulnerability: vulnerability of the symbolic, of identity, and of the human body itself. Throughout this work, Bronfen not only offers fresh approaches to understanding hysteria in our culture, but also introduces a new metaphor to serve as a theoretical tool. Whereas the phallus has long dominated psychoanalytical discourse, the image of the navel--a knotted originary wound common to both genders--facilitates discussion of topics relevant to hysteria, such as trauma, mortality, and infinity. Bronfen's insights make for a lively, innovative work sure to interest readers across the fields of art and literature, feminism, and psychology. Originally published in 1998.

This book was released on 2014-10-31 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Que la persona está moldeada, como amasada, por sus circunstancias es el aforismo de Ortega y Gasset, "yo soy yo y mi circunstancia", abundantísimamente repetido. Pues bien, en el nacimiento de Freud se dieron una serie de circunstancias que, sin ninguna duda, iban a ser determinantes de sus deseos vitales, y moldeadores de su pensamiento, de su orientación vital, y de su actitud fundamental frente a la existencia". "Freud ha ideado un microscopio del alma, que permite observar y comprender las raíces de las funciones mentales, y todo su desarrollo y dinamismo". (Oscar Pfister) "Quien haya llegado a conocer el psicoanálisis ha comido el fruto del árbol del Paraíso y ha adquirido la sabiduría". (Carlos Gustavo Jung)
Download or read book Spain a Global History written by Luis Francisco Martinez Montes and published by . This book was released on 2018-11-12 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the late fifteenth to the nineteenth centuries, the Hispanic Monarchy was one of the largest and most diverse political communities known in history. At its apogee, it stretched from the Castilian plateau to the high peaks of the Andes; from the cosmopolitan cities of Seville, Naples, or Mexico City to Santa Fe and San Francisco; from Brussels to Buenos Aires and from Milan to Manila. During those centuries, Spain left its imprint across vast continents and distant oceans contributing in no minor way to the emergence of our globalised era. This was true not only in an economic sense-the Hispano-American silver peso transported across the Atlantic and the Pacific by the Spanish fleets was arguably the first global currency, thus facilitating the creation of a world economic system-but intellectually and artistically as well. The most extraordinary cultural exchanges took place in practically every corner of the Hispanic world, no matter how distant from the metropolis. At various times a descendant of the Aztec nobility was translating a Baroque play into Nahuatl to the delight of an Amerindian and mixed audience in the market of Tlatelolco; an Andalusian Dominican priest was writing the first Western grammar of the Chinese language in Fuzhou, a Chinese city that enjoyed a trade monopoly with the Spanish Philippines; a Franciscan friar was composing a piece of polyphonic music with lyrics in Quechua to be played in a church decorated with Moorish-style ceilings in a Peruvian valley; or a multi-ethnic team of Amerindian and Spanish naturalists was describing in Latin, Spanish and local vernacular languages thousands of medicinal plants, animals and minerals previously unknown to the West. And, most probably, at the same time that one of those exchanges were happening, the members of the School of Salamanca were laying the foundations of modern international law or formulating some of the first modern theories of price, value and money, Cervantes was writing Don Quixote, Velázquez was painting Las Meninas, or Goya was exposing both the dark and bright sides of the European Enlightenment. Actually, whenever we contemplate the galleries devoted to Velázquez, El Greco, Zurbarán, Murillo or Goya in the Prado Museum in Madrid; when we visit the National Palace in Mexico City, a mission in California, a Jesuit church in Rome or the Intramuros quarter in Manila; or when we hear Spanish being spoken in a myriad of accents in the streets of San Francisco, New Orleans or Manhattan we are experiencing some of the past and present fruits of an always vibrant and still expanding cultural community. As the reader can infer by now, this book is about how Spain and the larger Hispanic world have contributed to world history and in particular to the history of civilisation, not only at the zenith of the Hispanic Monarchy but throughout a much longer span of time.
Download or read book World Literature Cosmopolitanism Globality written by Gesine Müller and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2019-10-21 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From today’s vantage point it can be denied that the confidence in the abilities of globalism, mobility, and cosmopolitanism to illuminate cultural signification processes of our time has been severely shaken. In the face of this crisis, a key concept of this globalizing optimism as World Literature has been for the past twenty years necessarily is in the need of a comprehensive revision. World Literature, Cosmopolitanism, Globality: Beyond, Against, Post, Otherwise offers a wide range of contributions approaching the blind spots of the globally oriented Humanities for phenomena that in one way or another have gone beyond the discourses, aesthetics, and political positions of liberal cosmopolitanism and neoliberal globalization. Departing basically (but not exclusively) from different examples of Latin American literatures and cultures in globalized contexts, this volume provides innovative insights into critical readings of World Literature and its related conceptualizations. A timely book that embraces highly innovative perspectives, it will be a mustread for all scholars involved in the field of the global dimensions of literature.
Download or read book Tango Lessons written by Marilyn G. Miller and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2014-02-07 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its earliest manifestations on the street corners of nineteenth-century Buenos Aires to its ascendancy as a global cultural form, tango has continually exceeded the confines of the dance floor or the music hall. In Tango Lessons, scholars from Latin America and the United States explore tango's enduring vitality. The interdisciplinary group of contributors—including specialists in dance, music, anthropology, linguistics, literature, film, and fine art—take up a broad range of topics. Among these are the productive tensions between tradition and experimentation in tango nuevo, representations of tango in film and contemporary art, and the role of tango in the imagination of Jorge Luis Borges. Taken together, the essays show that tango provides a kaleidoscopic perspective on Argentina's social, cultural, and intellectual history from the late nineteenth to the early twenty-first centuries. Contributors. Esteban Buch, Oscar Conde, Antonio Gómez, Morgan James Luker, Carolyn Merritt, Marilyn G. Miller, Fernando Rosenberg, Alejandro Susti

Download or read book Freud s Women written by Lisa Appignanesi and published by Orion Publishing Group. This book was released on 2005 with total page 563 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No modern writer has affected our views on women as powerfully as Sigmund Freud. And none has been so virulently attacked for both his theories of femininity and for his alleged elevation of personal prejudice to universal pronouncement. FREUD'S WOMEN examines that bold collaboration with his female patients which made psychoanalysis as much their creation as the young Viennese doctor's. It explores Freud's family life, his relations with daughter Anna, his 'Antigone', and his friendships with his followers. From the writer and turn of the century 'femme fatale', Lou Andreas Salome, to the socialist feminist, Helene Deutsch, early theorist of femininity, to Princesse Marie Bonaparte, who moved from couch to royal court with amazing facility and became head of the French psychoanalytic movement, Freud's women friends and pupils were extraordinary.
Download or read book Los Invisibles written by Richard Cleminson and published by University of Wales. This book was released on 2007 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining the social, medical and cultural history of male homosexuality in Spain, this book looks at it from the time homosexuality came to be an issue of medical, legal and cultural concern. Research into homosexuality in Spain is in its infancy. The last ten or fifteen years have seen a proliferation of studies on gender in Spain but much of this work has concentrated on women's history, literature and femininity. In contrast to existing research which concentrates on literature and literary figures, "Los Invisibles" focuses on the change in cultural representation of same-sex activity of through medicalisation, social and political anxieties about race and the late emergence of homosexual sub-cultures in the last quarter of the twentieth century. As such, this book constitutes an analysis of discourses and ideas from a social history and medical history position. Much of the research for the book was supported by a grant from the Wellcome Trust to research the medicalisation of homosexuality in Spain.

Download or read book Realities and Relationships written by Kenneth J. Gergen and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-01 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent attempts to challenge the primacy of reason--and its realization in foundationalist accounts of knowledge and cognitive formulations of human action--have focused on processes of discourse. Drawing from social and literary accounts of discourse, Kenneth Gergen considers these challenges to empiricism under the banner of "social construction." His aim is to outline the major elements of a social constructionist perspective, to illustrate its potential, and to initiate debate on the future of constructionist pursuits in the human sciences generally and psychology in particular.
