We all dream; we all share these strange experiences that infuse our nights. But we only know of those nightly adventures when we decide to represent them. In the long history of coming to terms with dreams there seem to be two different ways of delineating our forays into the world of the unconscious: One is the attempt of interpreting, of unveiling the hidden meaning of dreams. The other one is not so much concerned with the relation of dream and meaning, of dream and reality, it rather concentrates on trying to find means of representation for this extremely productive force that determines our sleep. The essays collected in this book explore both attempts. They follow debates in philosophy and psychoanalysis and they study literature, theatre, dance, film, and photography.

Kafka, Gothic and Fairytale is an original comparative study of the novels and some of the related shorter punishment fantasies in terms of their relationship to the Gothic and fairytale conventions. It is an absorbing subject and one which, while keeping to the basic facts of his life, mind-set and literary method, shows Kafka’s work in a genuinely new light. The contradiction between his persona with its love of fairytale and his shadow with its affinity with Gothic is reflected in his work, which is both Gothic and other than Gothic, both fairytale-like and the every denial of fairytale. Important subtexts of the book are the close connexion between Gothic and fairytale and between both of these and the dream. German text is quoted in translation unless the emphasis is on the meaning of individual words or phrases, in which case the words in question are quoted and their English meanings discussed. This means that readers without German can, for the first time, begin to understand the underlying ambiguity of Kafka’s major fictions. The book is addressed to all who are interested in the meaning of his work and its place in literary history, but also to the many readers in the English and German-speaking worlds who share the author’s enthusiasm for Gothic and fairytale.

Research in Analytical Psychology: Applications from Scientific, Historical, and Cross-Cultural Research is a unique collection of chapters from an international selection of contributors, reflecting the contemporary field of research in Analytical Psychology with a focus on qualitative and mixed-methods research. Presented in seven parts, this volume offers unique qualitative research that highlights approaches to understanding the psyche and investigating its components, and offers a Jungian perspective on cultural forces affecting individual psychology. The book brings forward the connections between Analytical Psychology and other disciplines including neuroscience, psychotherapy research, developmental research, Freudian psychoanalysis, and cultural studies. Part I provides an introduction to the volume, establishes the nature of qualitative and interdisciplinary research and its applications for research in other fields, and outlines the presented work. Part II, Approaching Qualitative Research in Analytical Psychology, examines postmodernism and the value a Jungian perspective offers, and introduces Jung’s correspondence as an emerging resource. Part III, Research on Symbolic Aspects of the Psyche, looks at archetypal theory and cultural complex theory. Part IV, Research on Consciousness and Emotion, presents chapters on meditation and the spectrums of emotion in mythologies, philosophy, Analytical Psychology, and the neurosciences. Part V, A Complex Systems Approach to the Psyche, addresses research on synchronicity, the geometry of individuation, and complexity, ecology, and symbolism. Part VI, Cross-Cultural Research, contains chapters concerning transcendence, psychosocial transformation, psychological infrastructure, and cultural complexes and cultural identity. Part VII concludes the volume by setting directions for potential areas of future study and collaboration. Each chapter provides an overview of research in a specific area and closes with potential directions for future investigation. The book will enable practitioners and researchers to evaluate the empirical status of their concepts and methods and, where possible, set new directions. It also presents the significance of contemporary Analytical Psychology and offers opportunities for cross-discipline collaboration and fertilization. This book will be essential reading for analytical psychologists in practice and in training, academics and students of Analytical Psychology and post-Jungian ideas, and academics and students of other disciplines seeking to integrate methods from Analytical Psychology into their research. It is complemented by its companion volume, Research in Analytical Psychology: Empirical Research.

Did dreams, visions, and divine revelations truly shape the course of religious history, or are they merely products of human imagination projected onto the divine? "Prophet Dreams" delves into this fundamental question by examining the profound impact of these experiences on the formation and evolution of major religious movements and teachings. This book explores how these subjective experiences were interpreted, validated, and ultimately integrated into the core tenets of various faiths. This study focuses on two key areas: the psychological and cultural contexts in which dreams and visions arose, and the processes by which these experiences were translated into religious doctrine and practice. Understanding these areas is crucial for anyone seeking a deeper appreciation of the origins and development of religious thought. We begin by establishing a historical and sociological framework for understanding altered states of consciousness within religious contexts. Prior knowledge of basic religious history and sociological concepts is helpful but not required. The book's central argument is that while the subjective nature of dreams and visions makes them inherently difficult to verify, their impact on religious belief systems is undeniable and warrants rigorous scholarly examination. The structure of "Prophet Dreams" involves an initial exploration of the neurobiological and psychological aspects of dreaming and visionary experiences. This section draws upon research in cognitive psychology and neuroscience to provide a foundation for understanding how the human brain generates these phenomena. The book then transitions into a series of case studies, examining specific instances of dreams, visions, and divine revelations in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Each case study analyzes the historical context, the individual's experience, and the subsequent impact on religious thought and practice. Finally, the book culminates in an analysis of the common themes and patterns that emerge across these different religious traditions, highlighting the enduring influence of subjective experience on the shaping of religious belief. The evidence presented relies on a combination of textual analysis of religious scriptures and historical documents, as well as comparative studies of religious traditions. "Prophet Dreams" also utilizes insights from anthropology and sociology of religion to understand how these experiences were interpreted and integrated into specific cultural contexts. This book connects to multiple fields of study. It links to psychology through its exploration of cognitive processes and altered states of consciousness. It connects to anthropology through its examination of cultural interpretations of dreams and visions. It also connects to history by tracing the evolution of religious ideas and practices over time. What sets "Prophet Dreams" apart is its interdisciplinary approach, combining insights from neuroscience, psychology, history, and religious studies to offer a comprehensive understanding of the role of subjective experience in the formation of religious belief. The tone is academic yet accessible, aiming to present complex information in a clear and engaging manner. The target audience includes students of religious studies, theology, and history, as well as anyone interested in the intersection of psychology, religion, and culture. This book would be valuable to readers seeking a deeper understanding of the origins and development of religious thought. As a work of non-fiction within Biblical Studies and Religion, "Prophet Dreams" adheres to the conventions of scholarly research, providing thorough documentation and rigorous analysis of its sources. The scope of the book encompasses a broad historical period, from ancient Near Eastern religions to the emergence of Islam. However, it intentionally limits its focus to Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, allowing for a more in-depth analysis of these specific traditions. The analysis presented in "Prophet Dreams" can be applied practically to contemporary discussions about the nature of religious experience and the role of subjective interpretation in shaping belief systems. In particular, it can inform debates about the authority of religious texts and the validity of personal religious experiences. While the significance of dreams and visions in religion is widely acknowledged, the interpretation and validation of these experiences remain a topic of ongoing debate. "Prophet Dreams" engages with these controversies by providing a balanced and nuanced analysis of the available evidence, inviting readers to critically examine their own assumptions about the nature of religious truth.

Law And Enjoyment written by Daniel Hourigan and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2015-06-05 with Law categories.
This book advocates, and develops, a critical account of the relationship between law and the largely neglected issue of ‘enjoyment’. Taking popular culture seriously – as a lived and meaningful basis for a wider understanding of law, beyond the strictures of legal institutions and professional practices – it takes up a range of case studies from film and literature in order to consider how law is iterated through enjoyment, and how enjoyment embodies law. Drawing on psychoanalytic theory, this book addresses issues such as the forced choice to enjoy the law, the biopolitics of tyranny, the enjoyment of law’s contingency, the trauma of the law’s symbolic codification of pleasure, and the futuristic vision of law’s transgression. In so doing, it forges an important case for acknowledging and analyzing the complex relationship between power and pleasure in law – one that will be of considerable interest to legal theorists, as well as those with interests in the intersection of psychoanalytic and cultural theory.
