Poet Priscilla McGreers Confessions of a Self-Loathing Narcissist presents an exploration of self-hood through the cosmic lens of astrology. Each poem in this series is inspired by and named after one of the twelve houses of the zodiac, considering universal themes such as love, life, sex, death, childhood, and friendship that become profoundly personal within the verses. The brooding yet exultant musings of this poetry collection aptly takes its name from the Greek myth of the tragically self-obsessed Narcissus. Confessions of a Self-Loathing Narcissist is an inquest into the sometimes dreadful awakening that can only be ever so painfully gained through self-knowledge. The introspective honesty of the poetry in this collection opens a path to triumphant release from the enthrallment with misery and self-limitation that plagues our self-centred culture.

In contemporary societies privatization has long ceased to be just an economic concept; rather, it must increasingly be made to refer to the ongoing shrinking of the public space under the impact of the representation of individual lives and images, which cuts across all discourses, genres and media to become one of the primary means of production of culture. This volume is intended to cover such an historical, social and intellectual ground, where self-representation comes to the fore. Targeting mostly an academic readership but certainly also of interest to the general educated public, it collects a wide range of essays dealing with diverse modes of life writing and portraying from a variety of perspectives and focusing on different historical periods and media. It thus offers itself as a major contribution to a better understanding of the world we live in: its past legacy and present configuration.ContentsIntroduction: Signposts of the Self in Modernity Part I.

While Jesus died slowly and painfully on a cross at Golgotha, three men, in a Jerusalem upper room, sat in on a sinister resurrection conspiracy which they never thought would change world history Who were these men? What were their motives? Who was the young man in long white garment the disciples found sitting in Jesus tomb on the morning of Jesus resurrection (Mark 16:5). What happened to the body of Jesus missing on the resurrection morning? Maverick Professor John Thomas Didymus a creative but sensitive mind unable to find succor in the age-old traditions of Christianity receives, while recuperating on a psychiatric hospital bed on the Isle of Patmos, healing divine visitations and empowering trumpet-call revelations of new Gospel truth. He reviews the historical evidence for a conspiracy theory of the resurrection in a compelling but disturbing alternative historical account of behind-the-gospel-scene political power intrigue and counter-intrigue trailing the ministry of Jesus from Galilee to Judea, Golgotha, the resurrection conspiracy and beyond. Rebounding, finally, from the depths of mental illness, back to his job at the university, and now succored by his former nurse Mary Magdalene, John Thomas Didymus 's career builds up into an apocalyptic confrontation with his colleagues of the ivory towers who ridicule his alternative gospel his pet Metaphysical Theory of Everything: A theory designed to grasp the entire spacetime fabric of reality in one fell swoop. A theory, the cognitive mutations of a mind functioning precariously, dangerously on the edge of mental chaos, beyond mere genius, bearing his cross, amid hostile jeers and taunts, Christ-like to Golgotha, on a lonely, narrow, ascending cognitive bio-evolutionary pathway to infinity

When it was first published in 1781, The Confessions scandalised Europe with its emotional honesty and frank treatment of the author's sexual and intellectual development. Since then, it has had a more profound impact on European thought. Rousseau left posterity a model of the reflective life - the solitary, uncompromising individual, the enemy of servitude and habit and the selfish egoist who dedicates his life to a particular ideal. The Confessions recreates the world in which he progressed from incompetent engraver to grand success; his enthusiasm for experience, his love of nature, and his uncompromising character make him an ideal guide to eighteenth-century Europe, and he was the author of some of the most profound work ever written on the relation between the individual and the state.
