Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designed to provide a readable account of intellectual developments in Britain since 1900, this three-volume series will be of value to the arts student who find his ignorance of Freud and Einstein a bar to his understanding of English literature, and equally to the scientist who wishes to know more of what has been going on in this century in disciplines other than his own. Some 40 well-known scholars have been asked to write on twentieth-century advances in their own subjects, ranging from physics to poetry, economic and social history to theology, psychology to painting and music. The contributors to Vol.I 1900-1918 include T.C. Barker, David Bell, G.H.A. Cole, Alan Friedman, L.S. Hearnshaw, Graham Hough, Richard Langhorne, Edward Lucie-Smith, D.J. Palmer, Raymond Plant, A.M. Quinton, Donald Read, C.H. Waddington, John Wain, and John Wren-Lewis. Although the emphasis is on the climate of thought in Britain, certain parts also deal with the American and European intellectual scene. Suggestions for further reading are provided for each of the subjects discussed. -4e de couv.

Download or read book Susan Isaacs written by Philip Graham and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2023-03-07 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This revised and expanded edition of Susan Isaacs: A Life Freeing the Minds of Children by Philip Graham, provides a comprehensive biography of a highly influential educationist and psychoanalyst. The book covers Isaacs’ childhood through to the end of her life, making it of great interest to historians of British education and of psychoanalysis as well as to practicing early years teachers and psychoanalysts. Graham describes the origins of the theories behind Isaacs’ work while also placing her contribution into context with other contemporary educationists. He draws on a range of sources including her own published and unpublished papers, multiple archives and intimate letters. Such wealth of information and anecdotes gives an insight into her childhood, marriage, and career creating a deeper understanding of both Isaacs’ personal life and her achievements. As only the second biography on Isaacs, this book is a valuable resource that shines a light on the life of a figure who has often been neglected in this field of study. It provides a shift away from the various male-dominated accounts currently prevalent within this area of research. Susan Isaacs is crucial reading to raise our awareness and appreciation of the person behind the work, while also highlighting and celebrating the impact she has made on today’s education and psychoanalytic practice.

Download or read book The Cultural Politics of Analytic Philosophy written by Thomas L. Akehurst and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2011-10-20 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cultural Politics of Analytic Philosophy examines three generations of analytic philosophers, who between them founded the modern discipline of analytic philosophy in Britain. The book explores how philosophers such as Bertrand Russell, A.J. Ayer, Gilbert Ryle and Isaiah Berlin believed in a link between German aggression in the twentieth century and the nineteenth-century philosophy of Hegel and Nietzsche. Thomas L. Akehurst thus identifies in this political critique of continental philosophy the origins of the hugely significant faultline between analytic and continental thought, an aspect of twentieth-century philosophy that is still poorly understood. The book also uncovers a tripartite alliance in British analytic philosophy, between nation, political virtue and philosophical method. In revealing this structure behind the assumptions of certain analytical thinkers, Akehurst challenges the conventional wisdom that sees analytic philosophy as a semi-detached narrowly academic pursuit. On the contrary, this important book suggests that the analytic philosophers were espousing a national philosophy, one they believed operated in harmony with British thinking and the British values of liberty and tolerance.

Download or read book Men In The Public Eye written by Jeff Hearn and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-05-11 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Men in the Public Eye reveals why men's domination in and of the public sphere is a vital feature of gender relations in patriarchy. It also shows how public domains dominate private domains, contributing to the intensification of public patriarchies. Jeff Hearn explores these important issues by focusing on the period 1870-1920, when there was massive growth and transformation in the power of the public domains. He demonstrates that these historical debates and dilemmas are still relevant today as men search for new, postmodern forms of masculinities.
