Book The Rise of True Crime

Download or read book The Rise of True Crime written by Jean Murley and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2008-08-30 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1950s and 1960s True Detective magazine developed a new way of narrating and understanding murder. It was more sensitive to context, gave more psychologically sophisticated accounts, and was more willing to make conjectures about the unknown thoughts and motivations of killers than others had been before. This turned out to be the start of a revolution, and, after a century of escalating accounts, we have now become a nation of experts, with many ordinary people able to speak intelligently about blood-spatter patterns and organized vs. disorganized serial killers. The Rise of True Crime examines the various genres of true crime using the most popular and well-known examples. And despite its examination of some of the potentially negative effects of the genre, it is written for people who read and enjoy true crime, and wish to learn more about it. With skyrocketing crime rates and the appearance of a frightening trend toward social chaos in the 1970s, books, documentaries, and fiction films in the true crime genre tried to make sense of the Charles Manson crimes and the Gary Gilmore execution events. And in the 1980s and 1990s, true crime taught pop culture consumers about forensics, profiling, and highly technical aspects of criminology. We have thus now become a nation of experts, with many ordinary people able to speak intelligently about blood-spatter patterns and organized vs. disorganized serial killers. Through the suggestion that certain kinds of killers are monstrous or outside the realm of human morality, and through the perpetuation of the stranger-danger idea, the true crime aesthetic has both responded to and fostered our culture's fears. True crime is also the site of a dramatic confrontation with the concept of evil, and one of the few places in American public discourse where moral terms are used without any irony, and notions and definitions of evil are presented without ambiguity. When seen within its historical context, true crime emerges as a vibrant and meaningful strand of popular culture, one that is unfortunately devalued as lurid and meaningless pulp.

Book Sadistic Love

    Book Details:
  • Author : Deborah M. Mueller
  • Publisher : AuthorHouse
  • Release : 2009-12
  • ISBN : 1449010202
  • Pages : 235 pages

Download or read book Sadistic Love written by Deborah M. Mueller and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-12 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This riveting narrative is about sadomasochism within the bonds of matrimony. The purpose of this book is to spark the awakening of other "insecure princesses" who find themselves trapped in sexually abusive relationships. This book is also about educating health care professionals about the brainwashing and powerlessness involved in sadomasochistic relationships through a personal account into the secretive world of S & M. From an academic view, topics such as feminist psychology, empowerment, boundary setting, and the importance of the therapeutic alliance play out in the journey to break free from this dark, destructive lifestyle. I write as the voice of a survivor. I made it out of a twenty-two year marriage where I was nothing more than a sex slave to my husband, and I have emerged into a new life filled with light and love.

Book Masochism

    Book Details:
  • Author : Robert A. Glick
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2013-07-04
  • ISBN : 1135061971
  • Pages : 249 pages

Download or read book Masochism written by Robert A. Glick and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-04 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as psychoanalytic interest in masochism dates from the earliest days of psychoanalysis, the various approaches to its understanding have reflected the developmental vicissitudes of psychoanalytic theory as it moved from its early focus on instinct to considerations of psychic structure and oedipall dynamics, object relations, separation-individuation, self-organization, and self-esteem regulation, and as it progressed into more systematic investigation of child development. Masochism: Current Psychoanalytic Perspectives offers an updated review of perspectives on masochism influence by current developments in psychoanalytic research and theory. The newer emphasis on and investigations of early preoedipal events have, as Cooper stresses in this volume, provided a significant scientific and clinical yield. The application of these newer perspectives to the issue of masochism holds considerable promise.

Book Sexual Myths of Modernity

Download or read book Sexual Myths of Modernity written by Alison M. Moore and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2015-11-19 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notion of sexual sadism emerged from nineteenth-century alienist attempts to imagine the pleasure of the torturer or mass killer. This was a time in which sexuality was mapped to social progress, so that perversions were always related either to degeneration or decadence. These ideas were internalized in later Freudian views of the drives within the self, and of their repression under the demands of modern European civilization. Sadism was always presented as the barbarous past that lurked within each of us, ready to burst forth into murderous violence, crime, anti-Semitism, and finally genocide. This idea maintained its currency in European thought after the Second World War as Freudian-influenced accounts of the history of philosophy configured the Marquis de Sade as a kind of Kantian “superego” in a framework that viewed the Western Enlightenment as unraveled by its own inner demons. In this way, a straight line was imagined from the late eighteenth century to the Holocaust. These ideas have had an ongoing legacy in debates about sexual perversion, feminism, genocide representation, and historical memory of Nazism. However, recent genocide research has massively debunked assumptions that perpetrators of mass violence are especially sexually motivated in their cruelty. This book considers how the late twentieth-century imagination eroticized Nazism for its own ends, but also how it has been informed by nineteenth-century formulations of the idea of mass violence as a sexual problem.

Book The Secret Sadist

  • Publisher : 4Play Press
  • Release : 2016-04-23
  • ISBN : 9781904086796
  • Pages : 136 pages

Download or read book The Secret Sadist written by Ted Edwards and published by 4Play Press. This book was released on 2016-04-23 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This story contains strong, and some may say offensive content. Please read the blurb and extract BEFORE purchasing and if you have reservations about the content then do not purchase. THIS BOOK COULD CAUSE OFFENCE! I started writing this book as a bit of a joke and because I was fed up with all those 'girls in the hands of the Nazis' stories written by people who clearly didn't have a clue about the time and subject (and I specifically exclude those books which appear on this site!) It wasn't long, though, before the story and its characters got hold of me and demanded to be taken seriously, whether I liked it or not. So I did just that and found that what I was writing about were things that not only did I know a bit about, but which, of necessity and if I was going to be true to my craft, required that my characters had to reflect the time, the place, events, attitudes and mores. The result, if nothing else, reflects just how much our own attitudes have changed in the seventy or so years since that time; the things my characters say and do are utterly unacceptable now (and weren't much better then, in most places) But they are true to their time and the situation which then applied. That does not mean that I share their concepts, views or beliefs in any way; on the contrary, I regard them with absolute anathema and found some parts of this story very difficult to write. Notwithstanding all that, this story and its sequel are entirely fictional and although I have taken liberties with certain prominent characters of the time, their nature leads me to make no apologies whatsoever - carry on roasting, you b...

Book Storyworthy

Book excerpt: A five-time Moth GrandSLAM winner and bestselling novelist shows how to tell a great story — and why doing so matters. Whether we realize it or not, we are always telling stories. On a first date or job interview, at a sales presentation or therapy appointment, with family or friends, we are constantly narrating events and interpreting emotions and actions. In this compelling book, storyteller extraordinaire Matthew Dicks presents wonderfully straightforward and engaging tips and techniques for constructing, telling, and polishing stories that will hold the attention of your audience (no matter how big or small). He shows that anyone can learn to be an appealing storyteller, that everyone has something "story worthy" to express, and, perhaps most important, that the act of creating and telling a tale is a powerful way of understanding and enhancing your own life.

Book There is Only One Road and it Goes Everywhere

Download or read book There is Only One Road and it Goes Everywhere written by Kathleen Phelan and published by Feral House. This book was released on 2021-01-25 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kathleen Phelan (nee Newton) was utterly unique; a female vagabond who embraced the freedom of the tramp lifestyle and philosophy. Like the infamous women explorers of the Victorian era, she traveled before as a single woman adventuring to every place on the planet funding her travels through canny bets on horseracing. At age 26 in 1944, she met and married author and fellow tramp, Jim Phelan who introduced her to his literary circle. She tramped another 40+ years after he passed roaming from continent to continent, staying with Picasso in Spain, playing football with Pele in Brazil, and even telling her stories to the Shah of Iran. Her magnetism attracted friends all over the world with whom she corresponded and kept entertained with lively letters. We meet Kathleen here in her never before published memoir of her travels with husband Jim and her return to the road after his passing in 1966. Also included are personal correspondence and magazine articles written by Kathleen while on the road. Her nephew Liam Phelan, a senior journalist with the Sydney Morning Herald, writes a moving and personal introduction.

First published in English in 1929, "Sadism And Masochism" remains the most important book of its kind since Krafft-Ebing’s "Psychopathia Sexualis" of the previous century, a masterpiece documenting all that is cruel and aberrant in humankind.
