With Pathways of Desire, Héctor Carrillo brings us into the lives of Mexican gay men who have left their home country to pursue greater sexual autonomy and sexual freedom in the United States. The groundbreaking ethnographic study brings our attention to the full arc of these men’s migration experiences, from their upbringing in Mexican cities and towns, to their cross-border journeys, to their incorporation into urban gay communities in American cities, and their sexual and romantic relationships with American men. These men’s diverse and fascinating stories demonstrate the intertwining of sexual, economic, and familial motivations for migration. Further, Carrillo shows that sexual globalization must be regarded as a bidirectional, albeit uneven, process of exchange between countries in the global north and the global south. With this approach, Carrillo challenges the view that gay men from countries like Mexico would logically want to migrate to a “more sexually enlightened” country like the United States—a partial and limited understanding, given the dynamic character of sexuality in countries such as Mexico, which are becoming more accepting of sexual diversity. Pathways of Desire also provides a helpful analytical framework for the simultaneous consideration of structural and cultural factors in social scientific studies of sexuality. Carrillo explains the patterns of cross-cultural interaction that sexual migration generates and—at the most practical level—shows how the intricacies of cross-cultural sexual and romantic relations may affect the sexual health and HIV risk of transnational immigrant populations.

Map of Desire is an elegant, innovative, and powerful blueprint for self-fulfillment. Through the power of pictures, it reveals inner landscapes.

Furthermore, as with all maps, we can see clear paths towards our true destinations all the way to personal freedom. Thanks to Fu-Ding Cheng's background in art and architecture, the "maps" are expertly designed, beautifully illustrated, and wonderfully instructive. Based on timeless wisdom traditions East and West, and informed by his own breakthrough awakening with world renowned shaman don Miguel Ruiz, the writing is as clear as it is authoritative, the practices effective as they are timely. With bold promise and sense of adventure, this book invites you to a journey rich and rewarding. "Fu-Ding is a nagual, a Master...Study these maps, follow the guidance, and you will find yourself enjoying your journey towards self-fulfillment." --don Miguel Ruiz Fu-Ding Cheng began his career as an architect, but has dedicated the past three decades to books, films, and spirituality. Since life-changing experiences with shaman, don Miguel Ruiz, he has been devoted to distilling the highest wisdoms into practical pathways to personal freedom for everyone.

Polly Young-Eisendrath´s Women and Desire: Beyond Wanting to Be Wanted was first published by Harmony Books in 1999. Since then, it has become a classic read for those readers– to use a cinematographic expression – who want to use analytical psychology to shed light on what women want. This book, when first published, was described (and still is) as “provocative and vital.” More than 20 years after its publication, this book still shows effectively “how to break out of this double bind so that” women “can encounter the challenges of choice and responsibility for our own desires.” The author “wisely uses mythological and personal stories to help us take control of our sexual, relational, material, and spiritual lives.” Therefore, “If you feel confused, resentful, or trapped in a life that does not seem to be fully yours, then you can find a clear path to your true self, once and for all, with the help of Women and Desire.” This book is the second of the series titled Jungianeum: Re-Covered Classics in Analytical Psychology curated by Stefano Carpani.

In this headline-making book, Daniel Bergner turns everything we thought we knew about women's desire on its head. Drawing on extensive research and interviews with renowned behavioural scientists, sexologists, psychologists and everyday women, Daniel Bergner asks: - Do women really crave intimacy and emotional connection? - Are women more disposed to sex with strangers or multiple partners than either science or society have ever let on? - And is 'the fairer sex' actually more sexually aggressive and anarchic than men?

Wouldn’t it be great to be wild? To be so natural and free that we could do whatever we want. But we can’t. If our species went wild the results could be very unpleasant. We might lose control. Our species has allowed itself to become artificial in its efforts to be careful and considerate. But what if we have made a mistake and miss the real value of wildness? In nature, not all animals are evolving, but all of them are wild. Why? Evolution is survival of the wildest, not survival of the fittest. Being wild allows an animal to become efficient in its niche. Wild species flourish in natural diversity and harmony. How do they do it? Our Wild Niche explores what it is to be wild, the obstacles that stand in the way of our being wild, and the human traits that will come forward when we finally do reach our wild niche. It also shows how the wildness links "everything" together into a sensible and complete package that will give new insight into the role of our human emotions, feelings, instincts, adaptations and desires.

In a world where longing echoes through the corridors of the human heart, "The Pursuit of Yearning" embarks on an introspective odyssey into the labyrinth of desire. This thought-provoking exploration delves into the profound nature of wanting, unveiling its intricate tapestry of beauty, pain, and transformation. With eloquence and erudition, the author guides readers on a journey through desire's myriad manifestations, from its sublime heights to its destructive depths. Through a kaleidoscope of perspectives, we witness desire's power to ignite passion, forge destinies, and reveal the hidden chambers of the soul. Yet, we also confront its potential to consume and enslave, leading us down treacherous paths of obsession and despair. This introspective voyage traverses the landscapes of history, philosophy, and art, drawing upon timeless tales of unrequited love, insatiable greed, and the relentless pursuit of dreams. Through these narratives, we glimpse our own reflections, our own struggles and aspirations, and are invited to contemplate the intricate dance between fulfillment and longing. With keen insight and compassion, the author unravels the complexities of the human psyche, laying bare the conflicting impulses that reside within us. We examine the tension between our innate desires and societal expectations, the allure of immediate gratification versus the pursuit of long-term goals, and the delicate balance between self-interest and compassion. This exploration empowers us to cultivate a deeper awareness of our own desires, enabling us to navigate the treacherous waters of the human experience with greater wisdom and equanimity. "The Pursuit of Yearning" is a profound meditation on the essence of desire, inviting readers to embrace its paradoxical nature. It is a call to explore the depths of our longing, not to conquer or suppress it, but to understand and harness its transformative potential for the betterment of ourselves and the world around us. With lyrical prose and penetrating insights, this book is a must-read for anyone seeking to unravel the enigma of desire and discover the path to authentic fulfillment.

Cervantine Journeys written by Steven D. Hutchinson and has been published by Univ of Wisconsin Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1992 with Language Arts & Disciplines categories.
Hutchinson focuses initially on movement as concept and metaphor, affirming its centrality in the conceptualization of all discursive activities. He draws on an array of authors including Heraclitus, Plato, Longinus, Rabelais, Nietzsche, Saussure, Frances Yates, Kristeva, Meschonnic, and Deleuze to demonstrate the "motion" of discourse and of those engaged in it. He then turns to Cervantes' novels to show how metaphors of movement and travel, appearing on nearly every page, dominate the conceptualization of the soul, the self, desire, love, and life processes. Viewing travel as a composite of concurrent modes of experience with differing content and rhythms, Hutchinson considers the concept of errancy, the nature of "place" and the traveler's shifting relations with it, and the values that travel may have as a motion, displacement, encounter, and goal. Of key importance are the means of improvisation developed en route. His re-examination of Bakhtin's "chronotope" in light of Cervante's novels reveals the dynamic character of time-spaces in which travelers move. He shows, moreover, that unlike typical Renaissance utopias the many worlds of Cervantes' novels have the principles of becoming and dissolution inscribed in them. Reflecting on the narrative of journeys both as memory and invention, Hutchinson concludes with an examination of the relations between travel experience and travel narrative and a discussion of the whereabouts of writers and readers in Cervantes' novels. The narration of journeys, he argues, necessitates and encourages improvisatory writing.
