Quattro modi di dimenticare. Wiesel, Freud, Blanchot, Kafka
2020
Questi frammenti prendono le mosse da un’ovvia considerazione: non possiamo aver memoria di tutto. È impossibile. E non dobbiamo. Sarebbe dannoso, anzi per certi versi fatale, se potessimo, dovessimo o volessimo ricordare tutto, serbare memoria d’ogni cosa, fatto, persona. Il nostro secolo è stato ed è il secolo della memoria. Pretendiamo di ricordare tutto, di archiviare tutto, di celebrare tutto. Persino la losoa, la psicoanalisi, la fenomenologia, l’analitica esistenziale di Heidegger e ancora la letteratura, le scienze antropologiche, l’arte, persino l’architettura celebrano la memoria, unica musa ed unica dea.
Perchè la tradizione
2012
E' possibile, nel XXI secolo, uno studio della tradizione che non ricalchi gli studi effettuati nei precedenti due secoli? Il saggio si propone di analizzare sinteticamente le nuove modalità di intendere, nel mondo contemporaneo, concetti quali Tradizione, Cultura e Religiosità popolare.
Lavitalamorte o la genesi dell'aporia
2021
The author finds the genesis of her concept of aporia in the Derrida Seminar of the 1970s on La vie la mort. The essay problematizes the co-belonging between life and death in Plato's Gorgias and starting from this datum compares Derrida's position with the dialectical-metaphysical one.
The Phantasmatic Core of Fascism: Psychoanalytic Theories of Antisemitism and Group Aggression Amongst the ‘Political Freudians’
2022
The period predating and overlapping with World War II saw psychoanalytic authors respond to the authoritarian and fascist developments in Europe through scholarly and analytical writings. These authors, sometimes referenced as ‘political Freudians’, were interested in bringing psychoanalysis in a dialogue with progressive social and pedagogical movements of their times, focusing their critique on the persecutory, eliminatory and purificatory fantasies, which they saw as animating the fascistic movements in Europe. This article analyses selected texts by Otto Fenichel, Ernst Simmel and Rudolf Loewenstein and argues that these authors asked about the political and ethical stakes of the fasci…
Do Narcissists Self-Enhance? Disentangling the Associations Between Narcissism and Positive Versus Enhanced Self-Views Across Aspects of Narcissism, …
2020
Across psychological disciplines, grandiose narcissism and self-enhancement have been treated as two closely related constructs. However, empirical research has not yielded conclusive insights about their association: It is currently unclear whether self-views of narcissistic individuals are more enhanced, in comparison with some criterion value, or whether their self-views are simply more positive than those of less narcissistic individuals. We aimed to clarify this fundamental issue with regard to (a) different aspects of narcissism (narcissistic admiration and rivalry), (b) different content domains of self-views (agency and communion), and (c) different criteria against which self-perc…
Is It Really That Funny? Laughter, Emotional Contagion, and Heuristic Processing During Shared Media Use
2017
ABSTRACTWhen people use humorous media content, their behavior and assessments of the content may depend on the emotional expressions (e.g., laughter) of those around them. In a laboratory experiment in which 80 participants watched a movie clip with a confederate who either laughed or remained silent, we identified two parallel processes. The confederate’s laughter induced behavioral responses in our participants (laughing or smiling). Through those responses, a corresponding appraisal of the media content was generated: The content was rated funnier in comparison to situations in which the confederate did not laugh. This effect corresponds to emotional contagion processes and was especial…
Research as Response
2010
In this article research is viewed as a response to a questioning from outside. Knowledge develops in steps, each step understood as a response to the questioning of the previous step. Today’s research is a conglomerate of responses to the questioning of yesterday’s research. Under the current conditions the questioning of knowledge and research is more directed towards the individual than before. The researcher is challenged to answer the questioning directed to his or her research. From this it is argued that the ability of the researcher to respond implies a responsibility. The content of this responsibility depends on the discourse in question. In business management the responsibility…
Seksuaalisuus mielen rakentumisen ilmiönä : käsitteellinen tutkimus seksuaalisuutta koskevista psykoanalyyttisistä teorioista
2012
Pro graduni käsittelee kaikkiaan sitä, mitä seksuaalisuus on ja kuinka seksuaalisuudella on ratkaiseva merkitys mielen rakentumissa. Selvitän käsitteellisen tutkimuksen avulla kuinka seksuaalisuutta tulisi teoreettisesti ymmärtää ja jäsentää. Analysoin ja vertailen kolmen psykoanalyyttisen teoreetikon, Sigmund Freudin, Jean Laplanchen ja Ruth Steinin teorioita seksuaalisuudesta. Etsin heidän teorioistaan vastauksia keskeisiin kysymyksiin seksuaalisuuden olemuksesta, vauvan heräämisestä seksuaalisuuteen, seksuaalisuuden jäsentymisestä mieleen, kohteen valitsemisesta sekä seksuaalisuuden poikkeavuuksien syntymekanismeista. Selvitän miten teoreetikot kirjoituksissaan vastaavat kysymyksiin, mit…
Apperception, content-based psychology and design
2003
A core area of scientific thinking is explaining. This means answering to the “why-questions and how questions” (Hempel 1965). Why does Sam have a fewer? Why did an organization fail abroad? Why a structure is able to support the weight of snow? How more effective valves for an engine can be designed? How to make computer games more attractive for female users? These are typical examples of design problems, all of which should be based on scientific explanation, i.e., what should be answered based on the laws of nature or as is becoming increasingly more evident, based on the laws of the human mind.
Jak historia odkłada się w pamięci, jak pamięć odkłada się w języku
2019
<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify; line-height: 150%;"> </p><p>Tematem artykułu jest zakreślenie ram pola badawczego tworzonego przez trzy tytułowe pojęcia: historia, pamięć, język. Ponieważ każde z nich jest wieloznaczne, a na dodatek w różnych sytuacjach odnoszone są do różnych porządków ontologicznych (do rzeczywistości pozajęzykowej i do rzeczywistości tekstowej, narracyjnej), autor stara się doprecyzować znaczenia odnośnych wyrazów i pokazać złożone relacje, jakie występują zarówno między poszczególnymi znaczeniami każdego z wyrazów oddzielnie (a więc pomiędzy „historią1” i „historią2” z jednej strony oraz między „pamięcią1” i „pamięcią2” – z drugiej)…
