Summary

What are the foundations of psychoanalysis? What were the ideas and discoveries at the basis of this discipline? How did Freud manage to discover the principles of the functioning of the human mind?

This book was created with the idea of offering the reader a clear and simple perspective on the discoveries that led to the birth of depth psychology. Inside you will discover the principles of psychodynamic theory. From the birth of depth psychology to the first clinical findings related to the use of hypnosis, and on to the unconscious psychic mechanisms that regulate people's lives. The method of investigation used by Freud to connect the different psychic layers present in the individual will also be illustrated. The reader will thus be able to follow a path of discovery that will not only enable him to better understand the subject, but also to question himself and the basic postulates that regulate psychic life.

    Unterstadt - A Novel

    The novel Unterstadt tells the story of an urban family of German origin living in Osijek from the end of the nineteenth till the end of the twentieth century. It is narrated through the portrayal of the destinies of four generations of women – a great grandmother, a grandmother, mother, and a daughter – their shattered illusions, the education of their children, the historical events that brutally lash out at them.
     
    Ivana Šojat creates a world rich in detail and nuance, all her characters, both major and minor, are expressive and suggestive, abundant in virtues and flaws, complex and multidimensional, as life itself is. By depicting a clash of generations through the female characters of a family, the author creates a world in which, often due to bizarre strokes of fate or wrongly selected life-cards, both horrible and beautiful events occur. Yet the central theme, running through all the generations and all the characters, is that of hiding away from the past, fleeing from it, concealing it, which sooner or later leads to traumas and misunderstandings.
     
    Unterstadt is a book about a family and a town, written in the manner of the best and greatest modernist novels. Through the history of one family, it speaks of the twentieth century in a multiethnic town, of dictatorships, of wrongly selected sides, of fate which one can hardly defy.Unterstadt reveals the richness of Ivana Šojat’s narrative talent, and it is thus not surprising that she has emerged as one of the most interesting writers of contemporary Croatian prose.
     
    The book Understadt was published as part of the Growing Together project, co-financed by the European Union.

    "An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals" is a philosophical treatise written by the Scottish philosopher David Hume. The work was first published in 1751 and is one of Hume's most important works, along with "A Treatise of Human Nature" and "Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion". 
    In "An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals", Hume explores the nature and foundation of morality. He argues that moral judgments are not based on reason, but on sentiment, or a natural feeling of approval or disapproval that we have towards certain actions or behaviors. He maintains that moral distinctions are not objective features of the world, but rather the products of human psychology. 
    Hume also argues that morality is not derived from religion or any other external source, but rather is grounded in human nature and the natural sentiments that we have towards others. He emphasizes the importance of sympathy, or the ability to feel and understand the emotions of others, in the development of moral sentiments. 
    Overall, "An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals" is a significant contribution to the field of moral philosophy and continues to be widely studied and debated by scholars today.

    A hopeful memoir about adapting when life doesn't go to plan, redefining family, and creating your own path. 
     
     
     
    One afternoon, Emma Nadler gets a call from her daughter's doctor that changes her life forever. Faced with the realities of raising a child with a rare genetic condition, Nadler must confront her preconceptions of motherhood and her perfectionistic beliefs. 
     
     
     
    Nadler—who also happens to be a psychotherapist—offers a rare window into the unconventional ways she and her family adapt to their improbable path. Every relationship in her life—with herself, her husband, children, friends, and even clients—is reimagined as she navigates the heartbreak and hilarity of her daily life. 
     
     
     
    As she and her husband join the 53 million caregivers in the US, Nadler wrestles to belong in a society that devalues both caregivers and people with disabilities. She challenges the scripts that mothers should be martyrs, or that self-sacrifice is a necessary component of love. Nadler illustrates the complexity, grief, and joy of living an unexpected life, all with the wisdom of a therapist, the heart of a loving parent, and the ingenuity of a queer woman who refuses to be shackled by cultural expectations.
