Fraternal Relations in Monasteries The Laboratory of Love

Fraternal Relations in Monasteries The Laboratory of Love

This is a book about the tensions between Christian ideals of love and the concrete realities of everyday monastic life. Based on a study of Cistercian monasteries in France it develops a novel conceptualization of fraternal relations and addresses how monks and nuns strive to accomplish such relationships within their communities. By focusing on the main interaction contexts of monasteries as a form of voluntary total institution the book shows how attempts to generate collective solidarity relate to other members as equals and avoid preferential relations conflict with practices of everyday life. Although fraternal ideals are similar for monks and nuns the analysis reveals significant gender differences regarding the legitimacy of different forms of interaction and relationships as well as how to control them. The book appeals to readers with an interest in total institutions sociology of religion sociology of friendship sociology of intimacy and also to scholars with an interest in theology of love and practical theology. | Fraternal Relations in Monasteries The Laboratory of Love

Christianity Ethics and the Law The Concept of Love in Christian Legal Thought

Christianity Ethics and the Law The Concept of Love in Christian Legal Thought

This book examines how Christian love can inform legal thought. The work introduces love as a way to advance the emergent conversation between constructive theology and jurisprudence that will also inform conversations in philosophy and political theory. Love is the central category for Christian ethical understanding. Yet the growing field of law and religion and relatedly law and theology rarely addresses how love can shape our understanding of law. This reflects in part a common assumption that law and love stand in necessary tension. Love applies to the private and the personal. Law by contrast applies to the public and the political realms governed by power. It is thus a mistake to envisage love as having anything but a negative relationship to law. This conclusion continues to govern Christian understandings of the meaning and vocation of law. The animating idea of this volume is that the concept of love can and should inform Christian legal thought. The project approaches this task from the perspective of both historical and constructive theology. Various contributions examine how such thinkers as Augustine Aquinas and Calvin utilised love in their legal thought. These essays highlight often neglected aspects of the Christian tradition. Other contributions examine Christian love in light of contemporary legal topics including civility forgiveness and secularism. Love the book proposes not only matters for law but can transform the terms on which Christians understand and engage it. The book will be of interest to academics and researchers working in the areas of legal theory; law and religion; law and philosophy; legal history; theology and religious studies; and political theory. | Christianity Ethics and the Law The Concept of Love in Christian Legal Thought

The Bonds of Love Revisited

The Bonds of Love Revisited

Jessica Benjamin is one of the most important and influential psychoanalysts of the last 4 decades. She is one of the founders of relational psychoanalysis a movement that has by now expanded over the globe and was also one of the first to introduce feminism and gender studies into psychoanalytic thought. Jessica Benjamin is the most known and quoted representative of these two movements within world psychoanalysis and beyond in philosophy gender/women’s studies and cultural studies department everywhere. The publication of her book Bonds of Love (1989) was nothing short of a revolution. Psychoanalysis was until then a field immune to a changing world to the unrest of the 60s to the feminist and queer liberation movements to the new philosophies of the Frankfurt School in Germany and post-structuralism in France. The book was a game changer. It called psychoanalysis to doubt its most basic premises on the human condition. It read Freud through a feminist framework and through Hegel forever tipping our perspective on infancy gender and the interplay of power and dependence that drives human relationships from the start. This volume marks the 25th anniversary of Benjamin’s work. Pulling together 15 international scholars it looks back on the book's first impact as well as on its continued relevance to psychoanalysis and gender studies today. Chapters offer theoretical deliberations and elaborations of the book's original themes as well as reflecting on it from more intimate angles as a source of personal and professional inspiration for feminists and clinicians around the world. This book was originally published as a special issue of Studies in Gender and Sexuality. | The Bonds of Love Revisited

Dramaturgies of Love in Romeo and Juliet Word Music and Dance

Dramaturgies of Love in Romeo and Juliet Word Music and Dance

Bringing together current intermedial discourses on Shakespeare music and dance with the affective turn in the humanities Dramaturgies of Love in Romeo and Juliet offers a unique and highly innovative transdisciplinary discussion of unspeakable love in one of the most famous love stories in literary history: the tragic romance of Romeo and Juliet. Through in-depth case studies and historical contextualisation this book showcases how the woes that no words can sound of Shakespeare’s iconic lovers nevertheless have found expression not only in his verbal poetry but also in non-verbal adaptations of the play in 19th-century symphonic music and 20th- and 21st-century theatre dance. Combining methodological approaches from diverse disciplines including affect theory musicology and dance studies this study opens up a new perspective onto the artistic representation of love defining amorous emotion as a generically transformative constellation of dialogic performativity. To explore how this constellation has become manifest across the arts this book analyses and compares dramatic musical and choreographic dramatisations of love in William Shakespeare’s early modern tragedy French composer Hector Berlioz’s dramatic symphony Roméo et Juliette (1839) and the staging of Berlioz’s symphony by German contemporary choreographer Sasha Waltz for the Paris Opera Ballet (2007). Chapters 1 and 4 of this book are freely available as downloadable Open Access PDFs at http://www. taylorfrancis. com under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4. 0 license. | Dramaturgies of Love in Romeo and Juliet Word Music and Dance

Transference Love Being Essential Essays from the Field

Transference Love Being Essential Essays from the Field

Through a series of expansive essays Transference Love Being explores the centrality of love in psychoanalytic practice. Starting with the immersion of the analyst this book reimagines several aspects of the psychoanalytic process including transference countertransference boundaries embodiment subjectivity and eroticism. To love is to cultivate to be. Psychoanalysis as essentially vitalizing is a playspace for taboo subjects within clear and safe parameters. Interweaving loving being and perceiving this book provides challenging new perspectives on the analysts's subjectivity receptivity and its immersive influence on the analytic process. These essays refine theoretical understandings of the irreducible and omnipresent nature of love in psychoanalysis thereby offering clarity to psychoanalysts psychodyanmic therapists and scholars through the often-prohibited love and eroticism here viewed as indispensible psychoanalytic theory and practice. | Transference Love Being Essential Essays from the Field

Love and Lust On the Psychoanalysis of Romantic and Sexual Emotions

Love and Lust On the Psychoanalysis of Romantic and Sexual Emotions

These selections from Theodor Reik's work concern the love life and sexual activity of men and women. Reik establishes the theme of this work in the following way: The sex urge hunts for lustful pleasure; love is in search of joy and happiness. Over a third of this volume had never been published in book form before it originally appeared half a century ago. Its appearance in paperback for the first time is a welcome addition to current debates liberated from ideological and political constraints. The first part of the book is so far ahead of its time that it is still current. It reveals Reik's departure from Freud's theories and from those of most of his contemporaries in psychology and psychoanalysis. Part Two is a greatly abbreviated version of Masochism in Modern Man retaining those parts with a direct bearing on the subject of this volume. Part Three offers two essays on why people remain single. In the author's usual direct style they deal with the marriage shyness of the male and the psychological fears and resistance of both men and women to acceptance of the marriage bond. Part Four is Reik at his wisest. The first lady whom I asked to read the manuscript said smilingly: 'Many of your impressions about us (women) are correct. No man should read the book!' A few seconds later she said: 'Or rather every man should read the book!'As Paul Roazen noted in contrast to some of Freud's other followers Reik was prescient early on in distinguishing self-love from narcissism. Reik believed that genuine self-regard was the ultimate basis for developing the capacity to love. At times Reik seems to defend women at times to critique them. Yet he writes with sympathy and understanding. He challenges other authorities who have written on the subject but he also agrees with many of them. Love and Lust is civilized writing at its most provocative. Reik is authoritative and his book reflects the glow of a rich personality. It is mellow but uncompromising. | Love and Lust On the Psychoanalysis of Romantic and Sexual Emotions
