Download or read book Stages of Consciousness written by Dale Albert Johnson and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-12-09 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An old idea with a new application The theory of recapitulation was a popular idea in the 19th century applied to biological revolution. Ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny""-is an historical hypothesis that the development of the embryo (ontogeny), goes through stages resembling the evolution of the animal's remote ancestors (phylogeny). Although the theory has been debunked in biology, aspects of the theory survive in other applications such as cognitive developement and art theory. I am applying the theory of recapitulation in a new way to a theory of historical/cultural consciousness on a collective level. This is an expansion of Carl Jung's application of the theory to individual psychological development and Jean Piaget's parallel theory as applied to educational development.

Download or read book Public Theatres and Theatre Publics written by Sara Freeman and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2012-03-15 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public Theatres and Theatre Publics presents sixteen focused investigations that connect theatre and performance studies with public sphere theory. The organizing critical lens of publics and publicness allows for the chapters to speak to one another other across time periods and geographies, inviting readers to think about how performing in public shapes and circulates concepts of identity, notions of taste or belonging, markers of class, and possibilities for political agency. Each essay presents a theorized case study that grapples with fundamental questions of how individuals perform in public contexts. The essays, written by a cross-section of prominent and emerging theatre and performance scholars, contribute new discussions and understandings of how theatre and performance work, as well as how publics, publicity, and modes of publicness have been constructed and contested over the last three centuries and in multiple national contexts including the US, Britain, France, Germany, Argentina and Egypt.

Download or read book The Role of Consciousness in Governance written by Etta D. Jackson and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Role of Consciousness in Governance explains how the Divine Will and Plan for Humanity must be manifested on Earth through the governments of all countries. For the Divine destiny of Humanity to become a reality, the governments on Earth must be perfect reflections of the one Above. The book reveals that the Spiritual Hierarchy, consisting of Adepts and Initiates, which has always had the responsibility for guiding the affairs of Humanity, is now no longer operating in secret due to the recognition and acceptance by Humanity of their existence and function which is a direct result of mans evolving awareness and consciousness. This Spiritual Hierarchy constitutes the New World Order, whose nucleus is now on Planet Earth and represents a new species of organic life. The book concludes by explaining both the pivotal role the United States of America plays in fulfilling the Divine Plan for the planet, and the creation of the New World Order, in order to establish the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. This is demonstrated by the importance of the esoteric document, the Declaration Independence, which was given to the USA to guide Humanity towards enlightenment.

Download or read book The Origins And History Of Consciousness written by Neumann, Erich and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-22 with total page 547 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Origins and History of Consciousness draws on a full range of world mythology to show how individual consciousness undergoes the same archetypal stages of development as human consciousness as a whole. Erich Neumann was one of C. G. Jung's most creative students and a renowned practitioner of analytical psychology in his own right. In this influential book, Neumann shows how the stages begin and end with the symbol of the Uroboros, the tail-eating serpent. The intermediate stages are projected in the universal myths of the World Creation, Great Mother, Separation of the World Parents, Birth of the Hero, Slaying of the Dragon, Rescue of the Captive, and Transformation and Deification of the Hero. Throughout the sequence, the Hero is the evolving ego consciousness. Featuring a foreword by Jung, this Princeton Classics edition introduces a new generation of readers to this eloquent and enduring work.

Book excerpt: "In Their Company is a long-awaited compendium of the voices of the American stage, presenting its most famous and gifted playwrights." "A play comes alive through the efforts of a community - actors, directors, producers, designers - and only in a moment that by its very nature cannot be recorded or repeated, but simply experienced. Like so many other works of art, a living piece of theater begins with a single idea, envisioned and cultivated in seclusion. It begins with the playwright." "Collins and Wishna set out photographing and interviewing dozens of accomplished American playwrights, in an attempt to capture that "beginning" - as well as the middle and never-arriving end - of their experience. In Their Company celebrates these gifted artists, presenting sixty-one playwrights."--BOOK JACKET.
