Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Was the leading psychologist of his time a Nazi sympathiser? This was the question asked by many after the Second World War, as they sought to explain Jung's actions and publications during Nazi rule. So great was the controversy that his reputation risked being permanently damaged. Essays on Contemporary Events was the first broadside in his vigorous defence of his beleaguered reputation. This remarkable work is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand Jung. It will enable the reader to decide: was Jung wholly innocent of the accusations or had he, like so many others, fallen under the Nazi spell and was now trying to make amends.

Download or read book History and Other Things Reconsidered written by John H. Silver and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-05 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History is a fragile subject. It is easily modified by omission, interpretation, selective content, and selective emphasis. Since human events always have multiple points of view, it is probable that pure objectivity in historical interpretations cannot be obtained. Of course, writing on history is only one example of a condition that holds true for all human actions and interactions, there is always a subjective element. Part 1 is a diverse selection of short essays that discuss historical events that have been written about and discussed many times and will continue to be written about in the future. The choice of topics for these essays was partly based on prior interest or were suggested to me by contemporary events and social attitudes. The essay on Custer is an example of the first kind, while the essay on the historical beginnings of Christianity and Islam is an example of the second. Although, the subjects of these essays vary considerably, they all have the common problem of frequent, intentional or un-intentional, misrepresented. Part 2 begins with a miscellany of topics that are relevant to the following discussion on contemporary historiography and the social factors that are influencing writing on history in particular, and society, in general. That is, what is now become prevalent in historical commentaries, has also become prevalent within our society.

Download or read book Reading the Early Modern Passions written by Gail Kern Paster and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2004-06 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How translatable is the language of the emotions across cultures and time? What connotations of particular emotions, strongly felt in the early modern period, have faded or shifted completely in our own? If Western culture has traditionally held emotion to be hostile to reason and the production of scientific knowledge, why and how have the passions been lauded as windows to higher truths? Assessing the changing discourses of feeling and their relevance to the cultural history of affect, Reading the Early Modern Passions offers fourteen interdisciplinary essays on the meanings and representations of the emotional universe of Renaissance Europe in literature, music, and art. Many in the early modern era were preoccupied by the relation of passion to action and believed the passions to be a natural force requiring stringent mental and physical disciplines. In speaking to the question of the historicity and variability of emotions within individuals, several of these essays investigate specific emotions, such as sadness, courage, and fear. Other essays turn to emotions spread throughout society by contemporary events, such as a ruler's death, the outbreak of war, or religious schism, and discuss how such emotions have widespread consequences in both social practice and theory. Addressing anxieties about the power of emotions; their relation to the public good; their centrality in promoting or disturbing an individual's relation to God, to monarch, and to fellow human beings, the authors also look at the ways emotion serves as a marker or determinant of gender, ethnicity, and humanity. Contributors to the volume include Zirka Filipczak, Victoria Kahn, Michael Schoenfeldt, Bruce Smith, Richard Strier, and Gary Tomlinson.
Download or read book Making It Modern Essays on the Art of the Now written by Linda Nochlin and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 2022-03-08 with total page 830 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A selection of key essays on art from the nineteenth century to the present day by one of the most influential voices in art history. This illustrated collection of essays brings together some of art historian Linda Nochlin’s most important writings on modernism and modernity from across her six-decade career. Before the publication of her seminal essay on feminism in art, “Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists?,” she had already firmly established herself as a major practitioner of a politically sophisticated and class-conscious social art history. Nochlin was part of an important cohort of scholars writing on modernity, determined to rethink the narratives of the subject under the pressure of contemporary events such as student uprisings, the women’s liberation movement, and the Vietnam War, with the help of politically engaged literary criticism that was emerging at the same time. Nochlin embraced Charles Baudelaire’s conviction that modernity is meant to be of one’s time—and that the role of an art historian was to understand the art of the past not only in its own historical context but according to the urgencies of the contemporary world. From academic debates about the nude in the eighteenth century to the work of Robert Gober in the twenty-first, whatever she turned her analytic eye to was conceived as the art of the now. Including seven previously unpublished pieces, this collection highlights the breadth and diversity of Nochlin’s output across the decades, including discussions on colonialism, fashion, and sex.

Download or read book Essays and Interviews on Contemporary American Poets Poetry and Pedagogy written by Daniel Morris and published by Anthem Press. This book was released on 2024-09-10 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In sixteen chapters devoted to avant-garde contemporary American poets, including Kenneth Goldsmith, Adeena Karasick, Tyrone Williams, Hannah Weiner, and Barrett Watten, prolific scholar and Purdue University professor Daniel Morris engages in a form of cultural repurposing by “learning twice” about how to attend to writers whose aesthetic contributions were not part of his education as a student in Boston and Chicago in the 1980s and 1990s when new formalism and post-confessional modes reigned supreme. Morris’s study demonstrates his interest in moving beyond formalism to offer what Stephen Fredman calls “a wider cultural interpretation of literature that emphasizes the ‘new historicist’ concerns with hybridity, ethnicity, power relations, material culture, politics, and religion.” Essays address from multiple perspectives—prophetic, diasporic, ethical—the vexing problems and sublime potential of disseminating lyrics—the ancient form of transmission and preservation of the singular, private human voice across time and space—to an individual reader, in an environment in which e-poetry and digitalized poetics pose a crisis (understood as both opportunity and threat) to traditional page poetry.
