Freud's 'Outstanding' Colleague/Jung's 'Twin Brother'

Freud's 'Outstanding' Colleague/Jung's 'Twin Brother'

Autor: Gottfried M. Heuer

Número de Páginas: 271

Otto Gross was the first analyst to link his work with radical politics, connecting inner, personal transformation with outer, collective change. Since his death in 1920 his work has been suppressed, despite his seminal influence on the developing analytic discipline and on the fields of sociology, philosophy and literature. Here Gottfried M. Heuer introduces Gross’ life and ideas, using an innovative, historiographic methodology he terms trans-historical: a psychoanalytic, intersubjective, and trans-temporal approach to the past, aimed at ‘healing wounded history’ in the present. Heuer considers several previously unpublished sources to explore Gross’s ideas and legacy as well as his unusually bohemian life. His use of the anarchist concept of mutuality to develop a relational and intersubjective approach in his own analytic theory and clinical practice was unique, and his work had a lasting, yet unacknowledged, influence on Freud, Jung (with whom he had the first recorded mutual analysis) and many other analysts. His ideas were appropriated by Max Weber, the founder of sociology, and by the philosopher Martin Buber, playing a pivotal role in what we now call...

Beyond Art: A Third Culture

Beyond Art: A Third Culture

Autor: Peter Weibel

Número de Páginas: 620

A new theory of culture presented with a new method achieved by comparing closely the art and science in 20th century Austria and Hungary. Major achievements that have influenced the world like psychoanalysis, abstract art, quantum physics, Gestalt psychology, formal languages, vision theories, and the game theory etc. originated from these countries, and influence the world still today as a result of exile nurtured in the US. A source book with numerous photographs, images and diagrams, it opens up a nearly infinite horizon of knowledge that helps one to understand what is going on in today’s worlds of art and science.

Murder and the Making of English CSI

Murder and the Making of English CSI

Autor: Ian Burney , Neil Pemberton

Número de Páginas: 261

A history of the origins and development of forensic science in murder investigations in early twentieth-century England. Crime scene investigation—or CSI—has captured the modern imagination. On television screens and in newspapers, we follow the exploits of forensic officers wearing protective suits and working behind police tape to identify and secure physical evidence for laboratory analysis. But where did this ensemble of investigative specialists and scientific techniques come from? In Murder and the Making of English CSI, Ian Burney and Neil Pemberton tell the engrossing history of how, in the first half of the twentieth century, novel routines, regulations, and techniques—from chain-of-custody procedures to the analysis of hair, blood, and fiber—fundamentally transformed the processing of murder scenes. Focusing on two iconic English investigations—the 1924 case of Emily Kaye, who was beaten and dismembered by her lover at a lonely beachfront holiday cottage, and the 1953 investigation into John Christie’s serial murders in his dingy terraced home in London’s West End—Burney and Pemberton chart the emergence of the crime scene as a new space of forensic...

Sexual Revolutions

Sexual Revolutions

Autor: Gottfried Heuer

Número de Páginas: 500

The ideas of psychoanalyst Otto Gross (1877-1920) have had a seminal influence on the development of psychoanalytic theory and clinical practice and yet his work has been largely overlooked. For Freud, he was one of only two analysts ‘capable of making an original contribution' (Jung was the other), and Jung called Gross 'my twin brother' in the course of their mutual analysis. This is a major interdisciplinary enquiry into the history, nature and plausibility of the idea of a 'sexual revolution', drawing also on the related fields of history, law, criminology, literature, sociology and philosophy. Divided into four parts and offering an interdisciplinary and international range of contributors, areas of discussion include: a contemporary perspective on sexual revolutions the broad influence of Otto Gross the father/son conflict a Jungian perspective on history. Sexual Revolutions introduces Gross’ work to the academic and clinical fields of psychoanalysis and Jungian analysis. Although most people associate the term with the 1960s, its foundations lie in the long-neglected but sensational work of the early psychoanalyst Otto Gross. This book will be essential reading for all...

Les freudiens hérétiques

Les freudiens hérétiques

Autor: Michel Onfray

Número de Páginas: 314

Le coup d'Etat effectué par Freud pour faire croire qu'il avait, seul, inventé la psychanalyse, a réussi. Il n'a d'ailleurs reculé devant rien pour que les choses en aillent ainsi... Il est parvenu à effacer le rôle du formidable intellectuel collectif qui, avec lui, mais aussi sans lui, malgré lui, voire contre lui, a inventé la discipline. Toute la psychanalyse non-freudienne a été vilipendée, salie, attaquée par Freud et les siens – sa fille Anna en première ligne. Or, il existe une psychanalyse de gauche qui récuse le schéma idéaliste freudien d'un inconscient psychique pensé comme un ectoplasme transmis de façon mystérieuse d'homme en homme depuis la période glaciaire. Cette psychanalyse de gauche pense l'inconscient comme un produit de l'histoire et des conditions d'existence concrètes des individus : l'inconscient des ouvriers, des pauvres, des employés, des chômeurs que Freud refuse de soigner, sous prétexte qu'ils jouissent du «bénéfice de la maladie», n'a pas grand-chose à voir avec l'inconscient de la riche bourgeoisie oisive qui se précipite chez Freud. Dans sa courte vie de libertin drogué, fantasque et suicidaire, Otto Gross invente...

Forensic Criminology

Forensic Criminology

Autor: Wayne Petherick , Brent E. Turvey , Claire E. Ferguson

Número de Páginas: 625

Forensic Criminology gives students of criminology and criminal justice an introduction to the forensic realm and the applied forensic issues they will face when working cases within the justice system. It effectively bridges the theoretical world of social criminology with the applied world of the criminal justice system. While most of the competing textbooks on criminology adequately address the application and the social theory to the criminal justice system, the vast majority do not include casework or real-world issues that criminologists face. This book focuses on navigating casework in forensic contexts by case-working criminologists, rather than broad social theory. It also allows criminology/criminal justice instructors outside of the forensic sciences the ability to develop and instruct a core course that might otherwise be considered beyond their expertise, or in conflict with forensic courses taught in chemistry, biology, or medical programs at their institutions because of its focus on criminology and criminal justice careers. With its practical approach, this textbook is well-suited for forensic criminology subjects being taught and developed in law, criminology, and ...

Digital Cultural Heritage

Digital Cultural Heritage

Autor: Horst Kremers

Número de Páginas: 440

This book provides an overview of various application spheres and supports further innovations needed in information management and in the processes of knowledge generation. The professions, organizations and scientific associations involved are unusually challenged by the complexity of the data situation. Cartography has always been the central field of application for georeferencing digital cultural heritage (DCH) objects. It is particularly important in enabling spatial relation analysis between any number of DCH objects or of their granular details. In addition to the pure geometric aspects, the cognitive relations that lead to knowledge representation and derivation of innovative use processes are also of increasing importance. Further, there is a societal demand for spatial reference and analytics (e.g. the extensive use of cognitive concepts of "map" and "atlas" for a variety of social topics in the media). There is a huge geometrical-logical-cognitive potential for complex, multimedia, digital-cultural-heritage databases and stakeholders expect handling, transmission and processing operations with guaranteed long-term availability for all other stakeholders. In the future, ...

Forensic Science

Forensic Science

Autor: Ian Shaw , Anna Sandiford

Número de Páginas: 282

Forensic science is often important in criminal cases, so criminal justice professionals, including lawyers and forensic scene investigators, must have a basic understanding of what is often complex science. This book explains the science underpinning forensic techniques to give those who engage with forensic science professionally, but who are not primarily scientists, a level of understanding that will enable them to use forensic science data effectively. In addition, the book places the use of forensic data in the context of criminal cases to assess the reliability and usefulness of forensic data in court. Succinctly presented, this book covers all the facets of forensic science for students who are hoping to become police officers, lawyers or other members of the criminal justice system. As forensic investigations have advanced, e.g. in DNA profiling, computer modelling and behavioural sciences, so has the need for an increase in the level of scientific knowledge. The author understands the challenges this brings and has written the book to explain complex information in an accessible and undemanding style. Using international case studies, this book will bring forensic...

History of Forensic Medicine

History of Forensic Medicine

Autor: Burkhard Madea

Número de Páginas: 370

Forensic Medicine is an old medical discipline defined as “that science, which teaches the application of every branch of medical knowledge to the purpose of the law” (Alfred Swaine Taylor). Forensic Medicine deals with medical evidence not only in practice but also in research and furthermore all legal essentials in health care especially for doctors are part of teaching, training and research. Several steps in the development of Forensic Medicine can be distinguished: At first the use of medical knowledge for legal and public purposes.Secondly the compulsory medical testimony for the guidance of judges.Thirdly the professionalization as an own academic discipline. The development and existence of a speciality of Forensic Medicine depends essentially on two factors: on a sufficiently high development of the law and on a sufficiently high development of medicine. The period of professionalization of Forensic Medicine as an own academic discipline started in the 19th century, especially in Paris, Vienna, London, Edin­burgh, Berlin. Since than the world has changed dramatically and we are now witnesses of a rapid, deep-rooted social cultural, legal and technological...

The Austrian Mind

The Austrian Mind

Autor: William M. Johnston

Número de Páginas: 542

Part One of this book shows how bureaucracy sustained the Habsburg Empire while inciting economists, legal theorists, and socialists to urge reform. Part Two examines how Vienna's coffeehouses, theaters, and concert halls stimulated creativity together with complacency. Part Three explores the fin-de-siecle world view known as Viennese Impressionism. Interacting with positivistic science, this reverence for the ephemeral inspired such pioneers ad Mach, Wittgenstein, Buber, and Freud. Part Four describes the vision of an ordered cosmos which flourished among Germans in Bohemia. Their philosophers cultivated a Leibnizian faith whose eventual collapse haunted Kafka and Mahler. Part Five explains how in Hungary wishful thinking reinforced a political activism rare elsewhere in Habsburg domains. Engage intellectuals like Lukacs and Mannheim systematized the sociology of knowledge, while two other Hungarians, Herzel and Nordau, initiated political Zionism. Part Six investigates certain attributes that have permeated Austrian thought, such as hostility to technology and delight in polar opposites. Part One of this book shows how bureaucracy sustained the Habsburg Empire while inciting...

Mind Reading as a Cultural Practice

Mind Reading as a Cultural Practice

Autor: Laurens Schlicht , Carla Seemann , Christian Kassung

Número de Páginas: 283

This book provides a genealogical perspective on various forms of mind reading in different settings. We understand mind reading in a broad sense as the twentieth-century attempt to generate knowledge of what people held in their minds – with a focus on scientifically-based governmental practices. This volume considers the techniques of mind reading within a wider perspective of discussions about technological innovation within neuroscience, the juridical system, “occult” practices and discourses within the wider field of parapsychology and magical beliefs. The authors address the practice of, and discourses on, mind reading as they form part of the consolidation of modern governmental techniques. The collected contributions explore the question of how these techniques have been epistemically formed, institutionalized, practiced, discussed, and how they have been used to shape forms of subjectivities – collectively through human consciousness or individually through the criminal, deviant, or spiritual subject. The first part of this book focuses on the technologies and media of mind reading, while the second part addresses practices of mind reading as they have been used...

Augsburg During the Reformation Era

Augsburg During the Reformation Era

Autor: B. Ann Tlusty

Número de Páginas: 350

Sixteenth-century Augsburg comes to life in this beautifully chosen and elegantly translated selection of original documents. Ranging across the whole panoply of social activity from the legislative reformation to work, recreation, and family life, these extracts make plain the subtle system of checks and balances, violence, and self-regulation that brought order and vibrancy to a sophisticated city community. Most of all we hear sixteenth-century people speak: in their petitions and complaints, their nervous responses under interrogation, their rage and laughter. Tlusty has done an invaluable service in crafting a collection that should be an indispensable part of the teaching syllabus. --Andrew Pettegree, University of St. Andrews

Sinti and Roma in Germany (1871-1933)

Sinti and Roma in Germany (1871-1933)

Autor: Simon Constantine

Número de Páginas: 155

This book concerns the persecution of the Sinti and Roma in Germany during the Second Empire (1871–1918) and Weimar Republic (1919–1933). It traces the ways in which discriminatory treatment towards 'Gypsies' developed in a state ostensibly committed to individual liberty and equal treatment under the law, and how government policies in this period furthered their economic marginalisation and social exclusion. It will provide much-needed detail on a crucial period, one which is ordinarily addressed only fleetingly, and by way of introduction, to studies of how the Sinti and Roma communities were treated by National Socialists.

La criminalística en preguntas y respuestas

La criminalística en preguntas y respuestas

Autor: Rafael Enrique Hernández De La Torre

Número de Páginas: 284

La investigación de los delitos es fundamental para el sistema policial y la justicia penal. Con el uso de lo más avanzado de la ciencia y la técnica, la criminalística ha devenido herramienta indispensable para establecer la necesaria objetividad en la elaboración de dictámenes periciales, formulación de hipótesis y determinación de la autoría de un hecho delictivo. El presente texto responde a cincuenta interrogantes sobre el quehacer de esta especialidad en la búsqueda de las evidencias necesarias para determinar la autoría de un delito; también se incluye una breve reseña del desarrollo de esta ciencia en el mundo y los pioneros en esta rama del saber (entre los cuales están algunos cubanos notables) y, para finalizar, se hace referencia a casos famosos donde la criminalística desempeñó un importante papel para desentrañar la verdad de los hechos.

Le socialisme libertaire de Gustav Landauer continue d'interroger la pensée libertaire et ne parvient pas à s'intégrer dans un modèle parfaitement cadré, si bien qu'il pourrait finalement offrir le meilleur exemple d'une pensée libre, ouverte et non dogmatique. Journaliste, activiste politique, commissaire à l'instruction dans l'éphémère républiques des Conseils de Munich en 1919 avant d'être assassiné par la milice bavaroise, ce volume qui présente un ensemble inédit de ses articles «anti-politiques» accompagné de plusieurs études de spécialistes français et allemands qui nous font découvrir les différentes implications de Landauer dans le mouvement coopératif, les communes libres ou la conception d'un sionisme révolutionnaire qui donnera naissance au mouvement des kibboutz. Gustav Landauer (1870-1919) est l'auteur d'une oeuvre importante et disparate, comprenant des romans, des pièces de théâtre et un grand nombre d'articles et d'essais philosophiques et politiques, où il développe une pensée originale inspirée par Kropotkine.

Paths out of the Apocalypse

Paths out of the Apocalypse

Autor: Ota Konrád , Rudolf Kucera

Número de Páginas: 526

Paths out of the Apocalypse uses violence as a prism through which to investigate the profound social, cultural, and political changes experienced by (post-) Habsburg Central Europe during and immediately after the Great War. It compares attitudes toward, and experiences and practices of, physical violence in the mostly Czech-speaking territories of Bohemia and Moravia, the German-speaking territories that would constitute the Republic of Austria after 1918, and the mostly German-speaking region of South Tyrol. Based on research in national and local archives and copious secondary literature, the study argues that, in the context of total war, physical violence became a predominant means of conceptualizing and expressing social-political demands as well as a means of demarcating various notions of community and belonging. The authors apply an interdisciplinary understanding of violence informed by sociological and psychological theories as well as by rigorous empirical historiographical approach. First, they examine the most severe kind of physical violence - murder - against the backdrop of shifting scientific and media discourses during the war and its immediate aftermath....

Apreciación judicial de las pruebas

Apreciación judicial de las pruebas

Autor: Francois Gorphe

Número de Páginas: 486

"El alcance de la obra rebasa con mucho el limitado objetivo que en su título se anuncia: En efecto, la apreciación de las pruebas guarda relación estrecha con las normas que rigen la indagación y presentación de aquéllas en el curso de la instancia. En función de la importancia asignada a tal o cual medio de prueba se miden los esfuerzos destinados a obtenerla, y se establecen las condicionas de su admisión y de su examen en el juicio. El formalismo de los países anglosajones se traduce en la fiscalización previa a que es sometida la pertinencia de los documentos y testimonios; y la misma rigidez vuelve a encontrarse en las modalidades del interrogatorio y de las repreguntas de los testigos y del acusado, «testigo en su propia causa». Un tratado de la apreciación de las pruebas es, por rigor lógico, un tratado de la prueba judicial en general. Existe además, con ciertas diferencias que ingeniosamente subraya Gorphe, analogía innegable entre los procedimientos de indagación judicial y los métodos de la investigación histórica; de suerte tal, que los progresos realizados en una u otra esfera presentan doble finalidad, ha verdad de este acercamiento resulta...

Autor: Reiner Stach

Número de Páginas: 453

Le dernier tome de la monumentale biographie de Reiner Stach : les années de jeunesse et de formation, ou comment Franz devient Kafka. Conclusion de la vaste enquête biographique de Reiner Stach, ce troisième tome est consacré aux années 1883 à 1911, de la naissance de Kafka à la veille de sa grande percée créatrice. Années d'enfance et de silence, années de balbutiements, de premières tentatives littéraires et de lente maturation. Autant qu'un récit de formation, ce volume est le portrait d'une ville et d'une époque. La ville : Prague, avec son conflit historique de plus en plus brûlant entre Allemands et Tchèques, qui place les Juifs entre le marteau et l'enclume. L'époque : le tournant du xxe siècle, où la montée des conflits sociaux, des idéologies et de l'antisémitisme, les bouleversements intellectuels, scientifiques et technologiques font peu à peu tomber les structures sociales anciennes. C'est au milieu de ces ruptures que naît et grandit Franz Kafka, enfant isolé pris entre le conflit avec son père et la pression de l'autorité scolaire. Il trouve bientôt dans l'écriture une échappatoire qui, à terme, le ramènera au monde et lui permettra...

Jung the Mystic

Jung the Mystic

Autor: Gary Lachman

Número de Páginas: 221

This bold, compact new biography of Carl Jung fills a gap in our understanding of the pioneering psychiatrist by focusing on the occult and mystical dimension of Jung's life and work, a critical but frequently misunderstood facet of his career. Although he is often called the "founding father of the New Age," Carl Jung, the legendary Swiss psychiatrist best known for his groundbreaking concepts like the collective unconscious, archetype theory, and synchronicity, often took pains to avoid any explicit association with mysticism or the occult. Yet Jung lived a life rich in paranormal experiences-arguing for the existence of poltergeists in a debate with Sigmund Freud, participating in séances, incorporating astrology into his therapeutic work, reporting a near death experience, and collaborating with the pioneering ESP researcher J. B. Rhine. It is these critical experiences-often fleetingly touched on in other biographies or critical studies, and just as frequently used to make a case against Jung and his philosophies-that form the core of this exciting new biography, Jung the Mystic. While Jung's ghostwritten memoirs, Memories, Dreams, Reflections, touch on the role his mystical ...

La sentencia errónea en el proceso penal

Autor: Max Hirschberg

Número de Páginas: 207

"Presento aquí un ensayo de análisis de la sentencia penal errónea y, con ello, de una patología sistemática de la formación de la sentencia penal, tema que, por extraño que parezca, no ha sido aún objeto de trabajo alguno. Puede decirse, sin embargo, que una criminalística que no contenga un estudio científico de las sentencias erróneas semeja a una enciclopedia de medicina en la que no se traten las patologías general y especial. El descuido de que ha sido objeto hasta ahora este trágico problema se vincula estrechamente con otra falla decisiva de la psicología criminal en Alemania. Aunque ha acumulado datos valiosos para el estudio de la psicología del delincuente y la psicología de las deposiciones, ha eludido por completo, por no decir esquivado con temor, su problema central: la psicología del juez".
