Download or read book Illusion Redefined written by Leinad Nehoc Ph.D. and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-02-11 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of this book is to facilitate spiritual healing through recognition of internal power over self defeating behavior. Skills are offered to neutralize the negativity that interferes with healthy communication. The reader will learn how to tap into positive energy to maintain focus. The goal is to empower you to take control of your life. Exposure to positive and negative forces unseen serves to awaken/focus or manipulate/confuse the inner spirit (light of the Divine Creator). Mastery of essential tools defines the internal experience. We are all engaged at one point or another. Success brings us to the next stage of our continuing journey, serving to raise us to higher levels of awareness. As we accept responsibility for sharpening our own focus, we redefine and come to a greater understanding of what motivates as well as what inhibits us. In doing so, we become an island of calm for ourselves and others immune to illusion. The promise of this book is to help you to embrace the greatness within yourself.

Download or read book Capitalism written by Fred L. Block and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virtually everyone—left, right, and center—believes that capitalist economies are autonomous, coherent, and regulated by their own internal laws. This view is an illusion. The reality is that economies organized around the pursuit of private profit are contradictory, incoherent, and heavily shaped by politics and governmental action. But the illusion remains hugely consequential because it has been embraced by political and economic elites who are convinced that they are powerless to change this system. The result is cycles of raised hopes followed by disappointment as elected officials discover they have no legitimate policy tools that can deliver what the public wants. In Capitalism, leading economic sociologist Fred L. Block argues that restoring the vitality of the United States and the world economy can be accomplished only with major reforms on the scale of the New Deal and the post–World War II building of new global institutions.

Download or read book Redefining the Subject written by Charlotte Sturgess and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2003 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume takes up the challenge of Canadian women's writing in its diversity, in order to examine the terms on which subjectivity, in its social, political and literary dimensions, emerges as discourse. Work from writers as diverse as Dionne Brand, Hiromi Goto and Margaret Atwood, among others, are studied both in their specific dimensions and through the collective focus of cultural and textual revision which characterizes Canadian writing in the feminine. Current theorizing on the postcolonial imaginary is brought to bear in the interests of forging or unpacking those links which tie the Self to culture. As such, Redefining the Subject sets out to discover the limits of the aesthetic in its encounter with the political: the figures and designs which envisage textual reimaginings as statements of a contemporary Canadian reality.

Download or read book Redefining the Self written by John Condon Murray and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this volume examine the conflict of ‘self' in society as a leitmotif in Swift's Gulliver's Travels, Poe's The Fall of the House of Usher, Joyce's Ulysses, and Pinter's The Dwarfs, The Lover, The Caretaker, and The Homecoming.In his analyses, Murray discusses the ideas of behavioral and ideological conformity in Swift's work. He examines Poe's use of the grotesque to suggest correlations between the moral, physical, and spiritual degeneration of the characters, and the natural decay of their environment. Murray examines passages of dialogue from Pinter's dramas and discusses how the characters within the plays use language to create spatial boundaries to secure their identities by making themselves impervious to the language of their ‘social others.' Murray's final essay concentrates on the use of role-playing and misidentification in Joyce's novel.

Download or read book Cinematic Interfaces written by Seung-hoon Jeong and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-11 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Seung-hoon Jeong introduces the cinematic interface as a contact surface that mediates between image and subject, proposing that this mediation be understood not simply as transparent and efficient but rather as asymmetrical, ambivalent, immanent, and multidirectional. Jeong enlists the new media term "interface" to bring to film theory a synthetic notion of interfaciality as underlying the multifaceted nature of both the image and subjectivity. Drawing on a range of films, Jeong examines cinematic interfaces seen on screen and the spectator’s experience of them, including: the direct appearance of a camera/filmstrip/screen, the character’s bodily contact with such a medium-interface, the object’s surface and the subject’s face as "quasi-interface," and the image itself. Each of these case studies serves as a platform for remapping and revamping major concepts in film studies such as suture, embodiment, illusion, signification, and indexicality. Looking to such theories as the ontology of the image and the phenomenology of the body, this original theorization of the cinematic interface not only offers a conceptual framework for rethinking and re-linking film and media studies, but also suggests a general theory of the interface.

Download or read book THE BEAUTIFUL ILLUSION OF BEING IN LOVE written by Adrian Gabriel Dumitru and published by Adrian Gabriel Dumitru. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book “The beautiful illusion of being in love” is a collection of writings with what is love about. Starting from the philosophical idea that everything we see in life is just an illusion, the book is defining the concept of love in the same way. But the illusion itself is also named “beautiful”. Falling in love is an experience, that any human being must see, with it’s own soul. It can be a beautiful experience, an illusion or a beautiful illusion. The book is more like a collection of poems, but the writer is not knowing to write poetry, but only essays. Trying to define love in many ways, the essays speak about the beautiful illusion as part of the life ... maybe the most important part. Defining is done in a micro and macro way, but the love is always seen as something very beautiful. The book could be a very nice reading for the ones that are in the dreaming period of a love story, or the ones that wants to understand love from a philosophical point of view. Enjoy it!
