Download or read book Deconstructing Archetype Theory written by Christian Roesler and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-08-04 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important book offers a critical and timely reassessment of one of the cornerstones of analytical psychology, Jung’s concept of archetypes. Exploring not only Jung’s original writings but also the range of interpretations used by Jungian scholars today, the book argues that Jung’s conceptualization of archetype theory is not a single coherent theory; rather, it is four different theories which must be understood separately. Roesler goes onto deconstruct these four ideas: the biological, the anthropological, the transcendental and the psychological in context with contemporary insights from each of these disciplines. A thorough analysis of the state of knowledge in the respective disciplines (i.e. biology, anthropology, religious and mythological studies) makes clear that the claims archetype theory makes in these fields have no support and should be given up. Deconstructing Archetype Theory concludes by arguing that a universal process of psychological transformation is the only part of archetype theory which should be maintained, as it provides a map for psychotherapy. Rigorous and insightful, this is a book that will fascinate scholars and practitioners of analytical psychology, as well as anyone with an interest in Jung’s original work.
Book Synopsis Handbook of Research on Deconstructing Culture and Communication in the Global South by : Okocha, Desmond Onyemechi
Download or read book Handbook of Research on Deconstructing Culture and Communication in the Global South written by Okocha, Desmond Onyemechi and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2023-07-10 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are inequalities in global knowledge production in communication outlets, cultural practices, and governance problems. Under this symbiotic relationship, they reinforce the cultural ideas, values, and governance systems operating in the Western countries as an ideal and role model for the Global South countries. Media is regarded as the agent of change for communication and cultural values. Indigenous knowledge production and dissemination is an essential feature to get a better insight into Global South countries. Likewise, dewesternizing and demystifying societal culture and governance issues are pertinent in this age of information. The Handbook of Research on Deconstructing Culture and Communication in the Global South focuses on local production practices keeping in view the local needs of communication outlets and societal and cultural sensitivities. This Indigenous knowledge would provide deeper and richer insights into the problems and sensitivities of Global South countries. To achieve this end, this book adopts a broader approach encompassing development issues, democratic values, digitalization practices, gender equality issues, and more. Covering topics such as biocultural activism, language ideology, and religiocentrism, this major reference work is a valuable resource for graduate students, sociologists, government officials, students and educators of higher education, librarians, development organization leaders, religious scholars, policymakers, researchers, and academicians.
Book Synopsis C. G. Jung’s Archetype Concept by : Christian Roesler
Download or read book C. G. Jung’s Archetype Concept written by Christian Roesler and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-28 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of archetypes is at the core of C. G. Jung’s analytical psychology. In this interesting and accessible volume, Roesler summarises the classical theory of archetypes and the archetypal stages of the individuation process as it was developed by Jung and his students. Various applications of archetypes, in cultural studies as well as in clinical practice, are demonstrated with detailed case studies, dream series, myths, fairy tales, and so on. The book also explores how the concept has further developed as a result of research and, for the first time, integrates findings from anthropology, human genetics, and the neurosciences. Based on these contemporary insights, Roesler also makes a compelling argument for why some of Jung’s views on the concept should be comprehensively revised. Offering new insights on foundational Jungian topics like the collective unconscious, persona, and shadow, C. G. Jung’s Archetype Concept is of great interest to Jungian students, analysts, psychotherapists, and scholars.

Book excerpt: Commonly dismissed as mystical by scientists, archetypes were described by Jung as biological entities, which have evolved through natural selection, and which, if they exist at all, must be amenable to empirical study. Anthony Stevens has discovered the key to opening up this long-ignored scientific approach to the archetype.

Book Synopsis Romantic Metasubjectivity Through Schelling and Jung by : Gord Barentsen
Download or read book Romantic Metasubjectivity Through Schelling and Jung written by Gord Barentsen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-04-08 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Romantic Metasubjectivity Through Schelling and Jung: Rethinking the Romantic Subject explores the remarkable intellectual isomorphism between the philosophy of Friedrich Schelling and Carl Jung’s analytical psychology in order to offer a crucial and original corrective to the "reflection theory" of subjectivity. Arguing that the reflection theory of the subject does not do justice to the full compass of Romantic thinking about the human being, Romantic Metasubjectivity sees human identity as neither discursive aftereffect nor centred around a self-transparent "I" but rather as constellated around the centripetal force of what Novalis calls "The Self of one’s self." The author begins with a unique reading of Schelling’s early Naturphilosophie as primal site rather than Freudian scene, thinking this site through his Philosophical Inquiries Into the Nature of Human Freedom to The Ages of the World. Reading Jungian metapsychology and its core concepts as therapeutic amplifications of Schelling, the author articulates an intellectual counter-transference in which Schelling and Jung contemporise each other. The book then demonstrates how Romantic metasubjectivity operates in the libidinal matrix of Romantic poetry through readings of William Wordsworth’s The Prelude and Percy Shelley’s Prometheus Unbound. The book concludes with a discussion of the hit TV series Breaking Bad as a "case study" of the challenges Romantic metasubjectivity raises for fundamental ethical dilemmas which confront us in the twenty-first century. Romantic Metasubjectivity is a highly original work of scholarship and will appeal to students and scholars in German Idealism, Romanticism, philosophy, psychoanalysis, theory, Jung studies, and those with an interest in contemporary theories of the subject.

Download or read book Archetypal Ontology written by Jon Mills and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this novel re-examination of the archetype construct, philosopher Jon Mills and psychiatrist Erik Goodwyn engage in spirited dialogue on the origins, nature, and scope of what archetypes actually constitute, their relation to the greater questions of psyche and worldhood, and their relevance for Jungian studies and analytical psychology today. Arguably the most definitive feature of Jung's metapsychology is his theory of archetypes. It is the fulcrum on which his analytical depth psychology rests. With recent trends in post-Jungian and neo-Jungian perspectives that have embraced developmental, relational, social justice, and postmodern paradigms, classical archetype theory has largely become a drowning genre. Despite the archetypal school of James Hillman and his contemporaries and the archetype debates that captured our attention over two decades ago, contemporary Jungians are preoccupied with the lived reality of the existential subject and the personal unconscious over the collective transpersonal forces derived from archaic ontology. Archetypal Ontology will be of interest to psychoanalysts, philosophers, transpersonal psychologists, cultural theorists, anthropologists, religious scholars, and many disciplines in the arts and humanities, analytical psychology, and post-Jungian studies"--
Book Synopsis King, Warrior, Magician, Lover by : Robert Moore
Download or read book King, Warrior, Magician, Lover written by Robert Moore and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bestselling, widely heralded, Jungian introduction to the psychological foundation of a mature, authentic, and revitalized masculinity. Redefining age-old concepts of masculinity, Jungian analysts Robert Moore and Douglas Gillette make the argument that mature masculinity is not abusive or domineering, but generative, creative, and empowering of the self and others. Moore and Gillette clearly define the four mature male archetypes that stand out through myth and literature across history: the king (the energy of just and creative ordering), the warrior (the energy of aggressive but nonviolent action), the magician (the energy of initiation and transformation), and the lover (the energy that connects one to others and the world), as well as the four immature patterns that interfere with masculine potential (divine child, oedipal child, trickster and hero). King, Warrior, Magician, Lover is an exploratory journey that will help men and women reimagine and deepen their understanding of the masculine psyche.

Book Synopsis Leadership Theory by : John P. Dugan
Download or read book Leadership Theory written by John P. Dugan and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-02-13 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An interdisciplinary survey text on leadership theory grounded using critical perspectives Leadership Theory is designed specifically for use in undergraduate or graduate classrooms providing a comprehensive overview of essential theories informing the leadership studies knowledgebase. The text infuses critical perspectives in a developmental manner that guides readers through increasingly complex ways in which theory can be deconstructed and reconstructed to enhance practice and advance social justice. The book uses compelling examples, critically reflective questions, and multiple approaches to concept illustration to cultivate readers' abilities to engage as critical learners. At the heart of this are powerful counter-narratives offering a range of insights on the challenges and rewards of leadership. Narratives represent accomplished leaders from across a broad range of fields including Eboo Patel, Mary Morten, Felice Gorordo, and more. The facilitator's guide and instructor's website supplement this with case studies, sample syllabi, structured dialogues, and learning activities tied to each chapter. Leadership texts tend to limit application of theory to a singular disciplinary context, omit important ways in which research evolves the understanding of theory, and/or lack critical evaluation of theories which diminishes the ability to translate theory to practice. This book provides a much-needed solution to these issues. Learn the nature, origin, and evolution of specific theories Understand and apply leadership theories using critical perspectives Consider the influences of ethics and justice, social location, and globalization The rapid expansion of leadership programs has thrown the dearth of suitable primary texts into sharp relief. Instructors forced to cobble together course materials from multiple piecemeal sources will find their much-needed solution in Leadership Theory.

Book Synopsis Disrespected Neighbo(u)rs by : Uwe Zagratzki
Download or read book Disrespected Neighbo(u)rs written by Uwe Zagratzki and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-27 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neighbourly relations frequently position a “self” against an “Other”. This is the case for both individuals and nations, and, indeed, within the various cultural groups of a nation. Our racial, ethnic, social, or gender identities are often created in demarcating ourselves by stereotyping the Other. Disrespect of the immediate neighbour based on stereotypical pre-conceptions and cultural biases may lie dormant for a long time and then, as shown in recent conflicts around the globe, suddenly surface due to changed economic and political conditions. Media, including films and fictional as well as non-fictional texts, feature prominently in producing, propagating, and maintaining cultural difference and stereotypes in ideologically effective ways. This volume analyses re-presentations from various angles, as it comprises articles dealing with ethnic groups and neighbo(u)rhoods from three world areas, as well as genres and media instrumental to their respective cultural stereotyping. This focus on literary and media representations of the neighbo(u)rly Other from miscellaneous cultural environments results in a comprehensive understanding of analogies and differences in the mechanisms of production and perception of stereotypes. Addressing the manifold discourses at the heart of stereotyping the familiar Other, the book also points to their far-reaching repercussions on lived cultural practices.

Book Synopsis About Men & Women by : Noreen Monroe Guzie
Download or read book About Men & Women written by Noreen Monroe Guzie and published by Enlightenment Publications, L.L.C.. This book was released on 2016-05-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book to be read for both knowledge and enjoyment! All people, whether they know it or not, live out their lives according to some -Great Story-. These stories are neither good nor bad, but they do help explain the root causes of their behavior. Every one of these stories, eight of them, will remind you of people you know. As a result, you will learn to appreciate and understand the many individuals in your life all the more. Why are some men and women aggressive, while others are more caring? Why do some male types get along better with some female types? And what happens when a person, suddenly, in the middle of life, feels moved to live out a different story? You will find answers to these questions. This book gives you a chance to affirm the great story you have been living all your life. It tells you why you have affinities for some people more than others, and why you have made certain life choices. As a result, you will be helped to make future choices and decisions more consciously and more wisely. You will find this book to be a UNIQUE CLASSIC in the realms of human understanding. The concepts explained are an enhancement to (not a replacement for) virtually every theory of psychology. These include the theories of Personality Types, Emotional Intelligence, Self-Actualization, the Wisdom of the Enneagram, the MBTI, and all the rest. This book is about archetypes, unique personality types that comprise the Great Stories that men and women have been living from time immemorial, in every era and in every culture: For women these Stories are named: Mother, Companion, Amazon, and Mediatrix. For men these Stories are named: Father, Seeker, Warrior, and Sage. Each of these is a Great Story in the sense that men and women in every era have found their identity and fulfillment in living one or two of these dramas. Our personal strengths, abilities, instincts, deficiencies, priorities and values all flow from the Great Stories that we live. Originally, this concept of -human archetypes- was introduced by the psychologist Carl Jung. It has now been expanded upon and further explained in this book in a way that no other authors ever have. Each of these -archetypes- or Great Stories for men and women refers to a pattern of psychic energy, a way of life, a way of being and becoming a fulfilled human person: Understanding your archetype is a way of understanding who you are and who you are not. Understanding your archetype will tell you a great deal about how you relate to other women, other men, your parents, your children, your peers. Understanding your archetype explains how you receive other people, and how others receive you. Understanding your archetype will tell you about loving, about parenting, and even about your way of conducting business. Marriage, the single life, midlife and old age are all affected by the Great Stories we live. As you read the Great Stories in this book, you will enjoy seeing yourself, your relatives and your friends in them. You will see the different ways that people live the Great Stories (archetypes), and how these stories interact with one another. You will enjoy the female dramas of Mother, Amazon, Companion and Mediatrix. Similarly you will enjoy the male dramas of Father, Warrior, Seeker and Sage. As you observe these dramas being enacted in the lives of people you know, you will encounter many reasons to smile! Enjoy!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Feminist Theory and Pop Culture synthesizes feminist theory with modern portrayals of gender in media culture. This comprehensive and interdisciplinary text includes an introductory chapter written by the editor as well as nine contributor chapters of original content. Included in the text: • Historical illustration of feminist theory • Application of feminist research methods for the study of gender • Feminist theoretical perspectives such as the male gaze, feminist standpoint theory, Black feminist thought, queer theory, masculinity theory, theories of feminist activism and postfeminism • Contributor chapters cover a range of topics from Western perspectives on Belly Dance classes to television shows such as GIRLS, Scandal and Orange is the New Black, as well as chapters which discuss gendered media forms like “chick lit”, comic books and Western perspectives of non-Western culture in film • Feminist theory as represented in the different waves of feminism, including a discussion of a fourth wave • Pedagogical features • Suggestions for further reading on topics covered • Discussion questions for classroom use Feminist Theory and Pop Culture was designed for classroom use and has been written with an eye toward engaging students in discussion. The book’s polished perspective on feminist theory juxtaposes popular culture with theoretical perspectives which have served as a foundation for the study of gender. This interdisciplinary text can serve as a primary or supplemental reading in undergraduate or graduate courses which focus on gender, pop culture, feminist theory or media studies. “This excellent anthology grounds feminism as articulated through four waves and features feminists responding to pop culture, while recognizing that popular culture has responded in complicated ways to feminisms. Contributors proffer lucid and engaging critiques of topics ranging from belly dancing through Fifty Shades of Grey, Scandal and Orange is the New Black. This book is a good read as well as an excellent text to enliven and inform in the classroom.” Dr. Jane Caputi Professor of Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies and Communication & Multimedia at Florida Atlantic University “Feminist Theory and Pop Culture is destined to be as popular as the culture it critiques. The text plays up the paradoxes of contemporary feminism and requires its readers to ask difficult questions about how and why the popular bring us pleasure. It is a contemporary collection that captures this moment in feminist time with diverse analyses of women’s representations across an impressive swath of popular culture. Feminist Theory and Pop Culture is the kind of text that makes me want to redesign my pop culture course. Again.” Dr. Ebony A.
