Book Synopsis Eros & Thanatos by : Cassandra L. Thompson
Download or read book Eros & Thanatos written by Cassandra L. Thompson and published by . This book was released on 2022-02-11 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Death, my dear, is only the beginning... Freud once theorized that human beings are subject to two drives: love (Eros) and death (Thanatos). While his psychoanalytic theory has long been expanded upon, no one can argue how fundamental love and death is to our existence. Within this collection are twelve stories that explore the fine line between these concepts. It also features a diverse group of authors whose often unheard voices tell stories of resilience, strength, and triumph through tragedy. Haunting as any Quill & Crow anthology, these stories seek to intrigue, inspire, and give a whole new meaning to "until death do us part."
Book Synopsis The Dance of Eros and Thanatos: Butoh and Queer Pedagogy by : Damiano Fina
Download or read book The Dance of Eros and Thanatos: Butoh and Queer Pedagogy written by Damiano Fina and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-05-26 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the basis of the biological characteristics that distinguish two different procreative modalities, the naturalization of the roles between masculine and feminine has been created, which has led to the creation of the stereotypes and conventions known to us today. What is at stake is not only the freedom of expression of the human organism, it is the possibility of leading a life worthy of being lived, without suffering the violence of a society that makes it unbearable because it does not conform to the norm. Queer pedagogy is a methodology that aims to make the organism experience transformative experiences through mimesic performances. From these experiences, queer pedagogy expects the possibility of facilitating the free expression of the truth that each organism recognizes in its own depth in a comfortable and welcoming context through the dance of Eros and Thanatos. A book about Pedagogy, Queer Theory and Butoh Dance.

Book Synopsis Modern Classics Beyond the Pleasure Principle by : Sigmund Freud
Download or read book Modern Classics Beyond the Pleasure Principle written by Sigmund Freud and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2003-07-29 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: in Freud's view we are driven by the desire for pleasure as well as by the desire to avoid pain. But the pursuit of pleasure has never been a simple thing. Pleasure can be a form of fear, a form of memory and a way of avoiding reality. Above all, as these essays show with remarkable eloquence, pleasure is a way in which we repeat ourselves. The essays collected in this volume explore, in Freud's uniquely subtle and accessible style, the puzzles of pleasure and morality - the enigmas of human development.
Download or read book Bezimena written by Nina Bunjevac and published by Fantagraphics Books. This book was released on 2019-05-29 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author’s jumping-off point is the myth of Artemis and Siproites, in which a young man is turned into a woman as a punishment for the attempted rape of one of Artemis’s virgin cohorts. Bunjevac’s retelling follows Benny, a sexually deviant man who, coming across an alluring former classmate, concocts an elaborate, disturbing rape fantasy. Inked in her lush, stippled, illustrative style, Bunjevac crafts a gripping, noirish, Nabokovian tale, by turns surreal and harrowing, that turns the male gaze inside-out. Bezimena is both a radical examination of the misconceptions surrounding rape culture and an artistic and psychological tour de force.

Book Synopsis Eros Crucified by : Matthew Clemente
Download or read book Eros Crucified written by Matthew Clemente and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-08 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing contemporary philosophers, theologians, and psychoanalysts into dialogue with works of art and literature, this work provides a fresh perspective on how humans can make sense of suffering and finitude and how our existence as sexual beings shapes our relations to one another and the divine. It attempts to establish a connection between carnal, bodily love and humanity’s relation to the divine. Relying on the works of philosophers such as Manoussakis, Kearney, and Marion and psychoanalysts such as Freud and Lacan, this book provides a possible answer to these fundamental questions and fosters further dialogue between thinkers and scholars of these different fields. The author analyzes why human sexuality implies both perversion and perfection and why it brings together humanity’s baseness and beatitude. Through it, the author taps once more into the dark mystery of Eros and Thanatos who, to paraphrase Dostoevsky, forever struggle with God on the battlefield of the human heart. This book is written primarily for scholars interested in the fields of philosophical psychology, existential philosophy, and philosophy of religion
Download or read book Eros written by Rosaura Martínez Ruiz and published by Fordham University Press. This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eros considers a promise left unfulfilled in Sigmund Freud’s Beyond the Pleasure Principle. Rosaura Martínez Ruiz argues that when the pleasure principle comes into contact with the death drive (the human tendency toward aggression or cruelty), the psyche can take detours that, without going beyond the limit of the pleasure principle, can nevertheless defer it. Eros reflects on these deviations of the pleasure principle, in the political sphere and in the intimate realm. Following these erotic paths, Martínez argues that the forces of the death drive can only be resisted if resistance is understood as an ongoing process. In such an effort, erotic action and the construction of pathways for sublimation are never-ending ethical and political tasks. We know that these tasks cannot be finally accomplished, yet they remain imperative and undeniably urgent. If psychoanalysis and deconstruction teach us that the death drive is insurmountable, through aesthetic creation and political action we can nevertheless delay, defer, and postpone it. Calling for the formation and maintenance of a “community of mourning duelists,” this book seeks to imagine and affirm the kind of “erotic battalion” that might yet be mobilized against injustice. This battalion’s mourning, Martínez argues, must be ongoing, open-ended, combative, and tenaciously committed to the complexity of ethical and political life.

Book Synopsis Classical Myth and Psychoanalysis by : Vanda Zajko
Download or read book Classical Myth and Psychoanalysis written by Vanda Zajko and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-06-27 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since Freud published the Interpretation of Dreams in 1900 and utilized Sophocles' Oedipus Rex to work through his developing ideas about the psycho-sexual development of children, it has been virtually impossible to think about psychoanalysis without reference to classical myth. Myth has the capacity to transcend the context of any particular retelling, continuing to transform our understanding of the present. Throughout the twentieth century, experts on the ancient world have turned to the insights of psychoanalytic criticism to supplement and inform their readings of classical myth and literature. This volume examines the inter-relationship of classical myth and psychoanalysis from the generation before Freud to the present day, engaging with debates about the role of classical myth in modernity, the importance of psychoanalytic ideas for cultural critique, and its ongoing relevance to ways of conceiving the self. The chapters trace the historical roots of terms in everyday usage, such as narcissism and the phallic symbol, in the reception of Classical Greece, and cover a variety of both classical and psychoanalytic texts.

Download or read book Eros Thanatos written by Greta Buysse and published by . This book was released on 2001-01 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women presented in their overwhelming sensuality are omnipresent in the works of Greta Buysse. The artist uses scenery, light, accessories, sand, paint and ink to decorate her female model as an icon of gracefulness and elegance. Femininity is the basic material to be refined, textured and beautifully staged by the photographer. Greta Buysse appears as an honest artist, a creator of images in her own universe: she paints, sculptures, assembles and stages a self-made world, If this is all done, she tries to photograph that reality in a unique way. In the past quarter-century, Greta Buysse created an idiosyncratic and high-principled form of art photography. A surprising and seducing body of work which fascinates art-lovers. Above all, her outputs is unanimously praised and appreciated by leading international critics and collectors.
