Selected papers on hysteria and other psychoneuroses

Sigmund Freud

Maison d'édition: Good Press

Synopsis

In "Selected Papers on Hysteria and Other Psychoneuroses," Sigmund Freud presents a foundational exploration of the psychological conditions that challenge conventional understanding of human behavior. Through meticulous case studies, including the seminal analysis of hysteria, Freud introduces his revolutionary theories on the unconscious mind, defense mechanisms, and the significance of childhood experiences. Written in a meticulous and rigorous literary style, these papers not only lay the groundwork for psychoanalytic theory but also reflect the cultural and scientific zeitgeist of late 19th-century Europe, where the interplay of emerging psychology and the complexities of human emotion was ripe for exploration. Sigmund Freud, a neurologist by training and the father of psychoanalysis, crafted this compilation during a period of intense intellectual curiosity and societal change. Influenced by contemporaries in both medicine and philosophy, Freud drew on his clinical experiences and innovative ideas from neurology to challenge prevailing notions about mental health. His profound engagement with sexuality, repression, and interpersonal dynamics informs his perspective on psychoneuroses, presenting an evolving understanding of psychiatric disorders that captures the intricacies of the human psyche. This book is indispensable for anyone interested in psychology, psychiatry, or the historical development of psychoanalysis. Freud's incisive observations and innovative theories continue to resonate in modern discussions of mental health and emotional well-being, making this collection not only a pivotal academic resource but also a gateway to understanding the depths of human behavior.

Witches - Witches: The history...

Nigel Cawthorne

When bigotry and power-mania take control, disaster always follows for subjugated persons - even when the power is wielded by the Church. 
 
Witchcraft was viewed as devil-worship. Between 1450 and 1750, one hundred thousand people were accused, subject to the most bestial tortures and usually executed. Witches examines the wildfire-spread of witch hunting across Europe and America, revealing the disturbing and brutal realities of these witch hunts and their roots in misogyny and religious persecution. 
 
It includes: 
• Letters and trial testimonies from those charged with witchcraft, as well as some from self-proclaimed witches 
• Biographic detail of key witch hunters, such as Matthew Hopkins (the so-called Witchfinder General) who was responsible for hundreds of executions 
• Accounts of famous witch trials, from Chelmsford to Salam 
 
Nigel Cawthorne doesn't shy away from the violent details of this persecution, exploring the events as they transpired, the contexts that triggered them and tracing it back to its source.

Book Summary of Ego Is The Enemy...

FlashBooks

This is a summary of Ego Is the Enemy by Ryan Holiday.
Original book description:
"While the history books are filled with tales of obsessive visionary geniuses who remade the world in their images with sheer, almost irrational force, I've found that history is also made by individuals who fought their egos at every turn, who eschewed the spotlight, and who put their higher goals above their desire for recognition." (From the prologue)
Many of us insist the main impediment to a full, successful life is the outside world. In fact the most common enemy lies within: our ego. Early in our careers, it impedes learning and the cultivation of talent. With success, it can blind us to our faults and sow future problems. In failure, it magnifies each blow and makes recovery more difficult. At every stage, ego holds us back.
Ego Is the Enemy draws on a vast array of stories and examples, from literature to philosophy to history. We meet fascinating figures such as George Marshall, Jackie Robinson, Katharine Graham, Bill Belichick, and Eleanor Roosevelt, who all reached the highest levels of power and success by conquering their own egos. Their strategies and tactics can be ours as well.
In an era that glorifies social media, reality TV, and other forms of shameless self-promotion, the battle against ego must be fought on many fronts. Armed with the lessons in this book, as Holiday writes, "you will be less invested in the story you tell about your own specialness, and as a result you will be liberated to accomplish the world-changing work you've set out to achieve."
