(De)constructing "America": the Case of Emir Kusturica's Arizona Dream (1993)
2010
International audience; By means of an analysis of Kusturica's only film about America, Arizona Dream, this article argues that while the United States offers a vision of a united society founded on diversity, it also represses, altering in the process both society and the landscape. National unity is consequently a dream – a dream the film suggests that has often been dreamed up by un-Americans. Filtered through Kusturica's own perceptions of America – and his position on the Balkan War (1991-2001) – the film seems to suggest sadness at the loss of a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural perspective. Through its representations of geography and ethnic diversity, and its dense network of filmic cita…
The origin, definition and nature of the transconscious in the spirituality of Father Stăniloae
2022
In his important work, Orthodox Spirituality , Father Dumitru Staniloae considers that, besides the real existence of the subconscious, there exists in man another reality as well, comprising the superior divine energies found in the human heart and which he defined by using the modern notion of transconscious or supraconscious. Contribution: The present study emphasises on the origin, definitions and content of this concept in the work of Father Staniloae and its great importance in defining a way to know God and his salvation works, from the perspective of an anchorite and Christian mystic, engaged in the existential tension of communion with God.
Dreams and Trauma Changes in the Manifest Dreams in Psychoanalytic Treatments - A Psychoanalytic Outcome Measure.
2021
Although psychoanalysts are interested in symptom reduction as an outcome, they are looking for instruments to measure sustaining changes in the unconscious mental functioning. In this article it is discussed that conceptually well-founded transformation of manifest dreams analyzed with precise empirical methods could be considered as a promising indicator for such therapeutic changes. We are summarizing a dream generation model by Moser and von Zeppelin which has integrated a large interdisciplinary knowledge base of contemporary dream and sleep research. Based on this model the authors have developed a valid and reliable coding system for analyzing manifest dreams, the Zurich Dream Proces…
A Pertinência de uma Abordagem Clínica Transcultural a Distúrbios Psicossomáticos na ilha Réunion
2018
Abstract Cultural foundations, beliefs and associated ritual practices delimit the relation to and the representation and lived experience of the body in specific ways. Language is the means through which the cultural specificity of both individual and shared mental content can be explored and worked with in therapy. This article presents beliefs about the body in a patient’s religion of origin and takes up the question of the role of the cultural dimension in psychosomatic phenomena. A case report gives indications of a novel therapeutic approach to this theme and highlights the intrinsic connection between cultural belonging and embodiment. Both the two-year long clinical intervention and…
A Focused Review of Language Use Preceding Death by Execution.
2018
Executions are one form of death that can be assumed to be maximally anxiety provoking. Words spoken by death row inmates moments before their execution can provide valuable insights into people's end-of-life communication needs and themes, conveying what individuals choose to express to others in the face of imminent death. In this focused review, we describe findings from quantitative and qualitative text analysis studies that have analyzed affective experiences and meaning-making attempts in transcriptions of actual statements made by Texas death row inmates. Overall, the most prevalent content themes identified in these final acts of verbal communication in the reviewed studies consiste…
Weininger’s Influences in Wittgenstein’s Conception of Judaism
2016
El objetivo de este trabajo es contribuir a dilucidar la concepción wittgensteiniana del judaísmo. En general se admite que la obra de Otto Weininger influyó en el pensamiento de Wittgenstein, pero no hay acuerdo sobre el contenido de esa influencia. Aquí sostenemos que esta es perceptible, no solo en la concepción wittgensteiniana de la ética, la genialidad, el talento, etc., sino también en su caracterización del judaísmo y en el uso que el filósofo hace de esta idea. The aim of this work is to contribute to elucidate Wittgenstein’s conception of Judaism. It is generally acknowledged that Otto Weininger’s work influenced the thought of Wittgenstein, but there is no agreement on the conten…

A SHAKESPEAREAN WAY FOR CREATIVE SOLUTIONS IN THE BUSINESS WORLD
2012
Both the business world and the artistic one are interesting as far as they give solutions for us. Each in their own way. An artist or a businessman becomes creative if inspired, if living with emotion, if depicting things worth to be taken into consideration. They both start with a dream. The result? Their work, their success. They are both enthusiastic, and responsible for what they do, and the solutions to improve, to change if creative can shape the future differently. W.Shakespeare was probably the most creative of all times and understood the human being as nobody else had done before. A visionary? He was a mind for progress where dreams become reality. Creative performance both in th…
Aikuisten S2-oppijoiden kielenoppimisen kokemuksia selkomukautetun kaunokirjallisuuden parissa
2020
Artikkeli käsittelee oppimisen kokemuksia selkomukautetun kaunokirjallisuuden parissa kotoutumiskoulutuksen lukupiirissä. Aineistona ovat lukupiirien 24 osallistujan haastattelut. Haastattelut on tehty osallistujien toisella kielellä tai lingua franca -englannilla, ja niitä lähestytään fenomenologista ajattelutapaa hyödyntäen kertomuksina oppimisen kokemuksista. Kokemukset vaihtelevat yksilöllisesti, ja tärkeimmiksi merkityskokonaisuuksiksi nousevat sanat, kielen rakenteet ja kielenkäyttö. Kokemusten yksilöllisyyttä voidaan selittää sosiokulttuurisesta teoriasta käsin: vaikka selkomukautettu kaunokirjallisuus tarjoaa lukijalleen runsaasti kielellisiä affordansseja, tarjoumia, kukin lukija t…
