Erotic Drawings - And Their Unconscious Meanings

Gerald Schoenewolf

Sinopse

Gerald Schoenewolf, a noted New York psychoanalyst, has collected his erotic drawings into one volume and provided an introduction and an ongoing commentary on the drawings.   There are 96 drawings, all done in the author's distinctive style, where young women are portrayed with weird, elongated breasts, vaginas with teeth, sitting in trees full of snakes, lying spread-legged with dogs, flouting strange smiles or seductive pouts on their faces.  These are whimsical, childlike drawings that are appealing and entertaining while at the same time revealing the author's unconscious cravings, fetishes, angers, aversions and other neurotic sexual inclinations.  In his introduction, Schoenewolf boldly analyses the traumas of his childhood and connects them to the symbols in the drawings, defining them as a new kind of psycho-art.  These drawings are similar in style (though perhaps not in artistic merit) to the erotic drawings of Picasso.  This is a book for psychologists and those interested in psychology as well as people who like art and particularly erotic art.  As the author proclaims at the end of his introduction, "Oh well!  Let's face it!  This book will appeal to everybody!"

The teachings encompass a wide range of topics, including the importance of humility, the pursuit of knowledge, the value of integrity in leadership, and the significance of familial and societal bonds. Each instruction serves as a timeless reminder of the universal principles that underpin a flourishing and harmonious life."The Instruction of Ptahhotep" is particularly renowned for its emphasis on wisdom acquired through experience and humility, as Ptahhotep imparts his knowledge to his son in a spirit of paternal care and guidance. Meanwhile, "The Instruction of Ke'gemni" similarly offers invaluable lessons on ethical conduct and leadership, drawing from the experiences and wisdom of another esteemed vizier of ancient Egypt. Together, these texts provide a comprehensive ethical framework for individuals seeking to lead a virtuous and meaningful life, offering practical guidance that remains relevant and inspiring across cultures and millennia.As readers delve into these ancient teachings, they are transported back in time to a civilization that valued wisdom, integrity, and moral excellence above all else. Despite the vast temporal and cultural distance that separates modern readers from ancient Egypt, the wisdom contained within these texts transcends boundaries of time and space, resonating with universal truths about human nature and the human condition. Whether pondering the intricacies of personal relationships, reflecting on the responsibilities of leadership, or contemplating the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment, readers will find in these ancient teachings a source of timeless wisdom and guidance that continues to illuminate the path toward a life of virtue and fulfillment.

Raghuvir Sahay

Mitansh

It may sound like socialism to say 
we should treat horses like human beings, 
especially when one of them happens to be a human being. 
When we jump guiltily off a rickshaw, 
and then feel sorry we've deprived the poor man of his 
livelihood 
and finally tip him out of pity- 
in all three cases we're a trial to him, and he has to endure 
us.
