Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Psychology of the Great War One of the plainest lessons taught by history, and one of those most substantially verified by. The present war, is that nations are not ruled by realities, but by the more or less illusory ideas which they form of these realities. The truth about an historical event may be revealed fifty years after it has taken place, but is seldom known at the time of its occurrence.

It is with the confidence that that day of peace will be hastened by the diffusion of a psycho logical viewpoint that this essay has been written. There can be little claim for originality made, as its aim is to bring before the lay reader material and methods of investigation that are normally not available to him. With this some tentative formulations are given, which it is hoped may tend to correlate the hypotheses that are reviewed.

Download or read book Psychical Phenomena and the War Classic Reprint written by Hereward Carrington and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-26 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Psychical Phenomena and the War For material utilized in Part I, I wish especially to acknowledge my indebtedness to M. Lebon's book, The Psychology of the Great War, and to Dr. George W. Crile's Mechanistic Conception of War and Peace. The bulk of the psychological material, relating to the mind of the combatant in action, is taken from my own article on The Mind of the Soldier, first published in the Forum, January, 1916, and reprinted here, by the editor's kind permission, with considerable addi tions. The chapter dealing with the psychology of the soldier in action is (naturally) based almost entirely upon Observations on the franco-british front; and but little reference to the psychology of the American soldier is as yet possible. Doubtless many psycho logical Observations of great value will be forthcom ing, when U. S. Soldiers get into action on a vast scale.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The outbreak of World War I saw the collapse of socialist notions of class solidarity and reaffirmed the enduring strength of nationalism. The workers of the world did not unite, but turned on one another and slaughtered their fellows in what was then the bloodiest war in history. There have been many efforts to explain the outbreak of war in 1914, but few from so intimate a perspective as LeBon's. He examines such questions as why German scholars tried to deny Germany's obvious guilt in the war, and what explained the remarkable resolve of the French army to persevere in the face of unprecedented adversity. To such questions, LeBon proposes answers built upon principles well articulated in the larger body of his work. He transforms the character of the debate by demonstrating how psychological principles explain more persuasively both the causes of German academic ignominy and the origins of French valor. Convinced as he was that only psychology could illuminate collective behavior, LeBon dismisses purely economic or political interpretations as ill-conceived and inadequate precisely because they fail to appreciate the role of psychology in the collective behavior of national statesmen, prominent scholars, and ordinary soldiers. The Psychology of the Great War provides a bridge to study both crowd behavior and battlefield behavior by illustrating how ordinary people are transformed into savages by great events. This element in LeBon's thinking influenced Georges Sorel's thinking, as he had seen the same phenomenon in those who participated in general strikes and revolutions. And in a later period and different context, Hannah Arendt gave this strange capacity of the ordinary to be transformed into the extraordinary the name "banality of evil." The book will be of interest to social theorists, psychologists concerned with group behavior, and historians of the period.

Download or read book The Psychology of Handling Men in the Army Classic Reprint written by Joseph Peterson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Psychology of Handling Men in the Army This little book is not to be regarded as a treatise on psychology; its purpose is frankly a practical one, and the plan out of which the work has grown originated in the army camps. The experience of the junior author (Lieut. David) in different training camps in which men are being prepared for the various duties of warfare led him to see the need, as he interpreted the situation, of a simple, rather practical presentation of the underlying psychological principles of handling men, one which should be especially designed to aid the newly commissioned and the non-commissioned officer. Consultation with various experienced army officers and a number of prominent citizens strengthened his conviction that a little book of this kind would render very real service in the present crisis, which has forced war upon us on so large a scale that officers must be prepared for their important duties in a comparatively short length of time. The field covered has been defined in general by what we have regarded as of most practical importance in view of present conditions. Since this is the first book of which we know that deals entirely with the psychological aspects of the training and handling of men in the army, it is necessarily incomplete and tentative in many respects, but it was thought best to begin with the more general and probably the most important aspects of the subject and to leave for later special studies and developments the problems relating to various particular phases of the field, most of which will have to be worked out under experimental conditions for which special provision is necessary.
