Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Siete pronti a trattare con le persone stupide in modo assertivo e senza ruffianerie? Siete pronti a sapere come dire di no e come contrastare efficacemente qualsiasi attacco passivo-aggressivo? Essere assertivi significa essere in grado di esprimere le proprie emozioni e difendere i propri diritti, rispettando le emozioni e i diritti degli altri. La comunicazione assertiva è appropriata perché è aperta, diretta e onesta e rende l'altra persona più consapevole delle vostre richieste. Alcune persone nascono con la capacità di essere aggressive, ma è anche un'abilità che può essere acquisita con la pratica. Inoltre, essere assertivi ha molti vantaggi, quindi vale la pena di impegnarsi. Vantaggi di una personalità assertiva Le persone assertive tendono ad avere meno conflitti nelle loro interazioni con gli altri. Di conseguenza, la loro vita quotidiana è meno stressante. Sono in grado di soddisfare i propri desideri, il che si traduce in una minore frustrazione dovuta a bisogni non soddisfatti, e sono anche in grado di aiutare gli altri a soddisfare i propri bisogni. Se avete relazioni più profonde e solidali, avrete sempre qualcuno a cui chiedere aiuto nel caso vi troviate in una situazione difficile. Questo non solo aiuta a gestire lo stress, ma contribuisce anche a un fisico complessivamente più sano. I ricercatori hanno anche scoperto che l'assertività si correla positivamente con alti livelli di autostima. In altre parole, quando si è più assertivi, si tende ad avere un'opinione più positiva di sé. Entrate ora e scoprite le più efficaci tecniche di psicologia sociale e di sviluppo personale per diventare altamente assertivi e condurre tutte le vostre conversazioni con grazia, anche se avete di fronte una persona violenta o arrabbiata.
Download or read book Heldenplatz written by Thomas Bernhard and published by Oberon Books. This book was released on 2010-08-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Bernhard is widely considered to be one of the most important German playwrights in the post-war era. Highly acclaimed, he has written over twenty plays and novels and gained a reputation as one of Austria’s most controversial authors. Bernhard wrote Heldenplatz in 1988 as a response to the fiftieth anniversary of the Anschluss (annexation) of Austria by Hitler’s Germany. Highly controversial in Austria, the play concerns a Jewish professor who returns to Vienna after the Second World War and discovers that his fellow Austrians are as anti-semitic as ever. ‘Heldenplatz’ is the square in Vienna where the Austrian-born Hitler made his first speech after the Anschluss. In Heldenplatz, Bernhard's final play, he explores the shared isolation of people who have lost their bearings, along with most of their illusions.

Download or read book Materialist Film written by Peter Gidal and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-13 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A polemical introduction to the avant-garde and experimental in film (including making and viewing), Materialist Film is a highly original, thought-provoking book. Thirty-seven short chapters work through a series of concepts which will enable the reader to deal imaginatively with the contradictory issues produced by experimental film. Each concept is explored in conjunction with specific films by Andy Warhol, Malcolm LeGrice, Lis Rhodes, Jean-Luc Goddard, Rose Lowder, Kurt Kren, and others. Peter Gidal draws on important politico-aesthetic writings, and uses some of his own previously published essays from Undercut, Screen, October, and Millennium Film Journal to undertake this concrete process of working through abstract concepts. Originally published in 1989.
Download or read book The Essay Film written by Timothy Corrigan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011-08-01 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why have certain kinds of documentary and non-narrative films emerged as the most interesting, exciting, and provocative movies made in the last twenty years? Ranging from the films of Ross McElwee (Bright Leaves) and Agnès Varda (The Gleaners and I) to those of Abbas Kiarostami (Close Up) and Ari Folman (Waltz with Bashir), such films have intrigued viewers who at the same time have struggled to categorize them. Sometimes described as personal documentaries or diary films, these eclectic works are, rather, best understood as cinematic variations on the essay. So argues Tim Corrigan in this stimulating and necessary new book. Since Michel de Montaigne, essays have been seen as a lively literary category, and yet--despite the work of pioneers like Chris Marker--seldom discussed as a cinematic tradition. The Essay Film, offering a thoughtful account of the long rapport between literature and film as well as novel interpretations and theoretical models, provides the ideas that will change this.

Download or read book Things Beyond Resemblance written by Robert Hullot-Kentor and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2006-09-05 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theodor W. Adorno was a major twentieth-century philosopher and social critic whose writings on oppositional culture in art, music, and literature increasingly stand at the center of contemporary intellectual debate. In this excellent collection, Robert Hullot-Kentor, widely regarded as the most distinguished American translator and commentator on Adorno, gathers together sixteen essays he has written about the philosopher over the past twenty years. The opening essay, "Origin Is the Goal," pursues Adorno's thesis of the dialectic of enlightenment to better understand the urgent social and political situation of the United States. "Back to Adorno" examines Adorno's idea that sacrifice is the primordial form of human domination; "Second Salvage" reconstructs Adorno's unfinished study of the transformation of music in radio transmission; and "What Is Mechanical Reproduction" revisits Adorno's criticism of Walter Benjamin. Further essays cover a broad range of topics: Adorno's affinities with Wallace Stevens and Nabokov, his complex relationship with Kierkegaard and psychoanalysis, and his critical study of popular music. Many of these essays have been revised, with new material added that emphasizes the relevance of Adorno's thought to the United States today. Things Beyond Resemblance is a timely and richly analytical collection crucial to the study of critical theory, aesthetics, continental philosophy, and Adorno.
