        Critical theory and feeling

        The affective politics of the early Frankfurt School

        by Simon Mussell

        This book offers a unique and timely reading of the early Frankfurt School in response to the recent 'affective turn' within the arts and humanities. Resisting the overly rationalist tendencies of political philosophy, it argues that critical theory actively cultivates a powerful connection between thinking and feeling, and rediscovers a range of often neglected concepts that were of vital importance to the first generation of critical theorists, including melancholia, hope, (un)happiness, objects and mimesis. In doing so, it brings the dynamic work of Walter Benjamin, Theodor Adorno, Ernst Bloch and Siegfried Kracauer into conversation with more recent debates around politics and affect. An important intervention in the fields of affect studies and social and political thought, Critical theory and feeling shows that sensuous experience is at the heart of the Frankfurt School's affective politics.

        Saturn und Melancholie

        Studien zur Geschichte der Naturphilosophie und Medizin, der Religion und der Kunst

        by Raymond Klibansky, Erwin Panofsky, Fritz Saxl, Christa Buschendorf

        Das Buch enthält die Resultate eines halben Jahrhunderts geistes- bzw. ideengeschichtlicher Forschung und gilt als Klassiker. Saturn und Melancholie besteht aus vier Teilen: Der erste geht der historischen Entwicklung des Melancholie-Begriffs in der medizinischen, naturwissenschaftlichen und philosophischen Literatur der Antike und des Mittelalters nach. Der zweite beschäftigt sich mit Saturn - dem Stern der Melancholie -, und zwar mit der literarischen und bildlichen Überlieferung vor allem in der Antike und im Mittelalter. Der dritte Teil untersucht zwei neuzeitliche Ausprägungen der Melancholie: die »poetische Melancholie« und die »Melancholia generosa«. Im Lichte der in den ersten drei Teilen rekonstruierten Vorstellungs- und Bildtraditionen wird im vierten Teil schließlich Dürers Melancholie-Blatt interpretiert.

        Zur Literatur und Kultur Polens

        by Karl Dedecius

        Das Buch enthält zwei Abbildungen von Dürers Melancholia und von Hieronymus im Gehäus. Hieronymus, der im Osten geborene, im Westen verwurzelte und wirkende Ur-Übersetzer und Interpret, gilt Karl Dedecius als Schutzpatron. »Hieronymus«, so schreibt er, »sehnte sich nach einer wahrhaftigen Freundschaft. Er beschwor sie in den Briefen und Traktaten, öfter noch in den Gedanken und Dialogen, wenn er Hylas, Innozentius, Rufin oder Helidor zu sich rief zu einem offenen Gespräch, einem Gespräch ohne den Zwang von Bedingungen und falschen Rücksichten. Er rührte die Steine, den Wüstensand und den Löwen — nicht die Menschen, auf die es ihm vor allem ankam. Also blieb er allein, im Grunde, in seiner Höhle, seinem Gehäuse, das Schriften, Episteln, Wörterbücher, das Kruzifix, der Totenschädel, die Sanduhr und der Löwe beseelten.

        Dealing with Depression

        Dealing with Depression

        Information for Those Affected and Their Families

        by Martin Hautzinger

        Everybody feels sad or listless at some point. This is normal. Melancholia or depression are more severe and longerlasting variants of these moods. The entire body, thought patterns, life and social relationships are affected. Depression occurs frequently and in all stages of life but is often not recognized or recognized too late and often treated inappropriately. The consequences are unnecessary suffering, loss of quality of life, strain on the family, illnesses, and even shortened life expectancy despite the availability of successful treatment options. This title outlines the symptoms and patterns of depression as well as possible causes and treatment options. In addition, self-help options are presented. The guide helps to better understand the illness and is also suitable for being read in parallel to an ongoing treatment and thus supporting the therapy. For:• those affected and their families• psychotherapists• psychiatrists• psychological coaches• primary care physicians

        Art history

        A critical introduction to its methods

        by Michael Hatt, Charlotte Klonk

        Art History: A critical introduction to its methods provides a lively and stimulating introduction to methodological debates within art history. Offering a lucid account of approaches from Hegel to post-colonialism, the book provides a sense of art history's own history as a discipline from its emergence in the late-eighteenth century to contemporary debates. By explaining the underlying philosophical and political assumptions behind each method, along with clear examples of how these are brought to bear on visual and historical analysis, the authors show that an adherence to a certain method is, in effect, a commitment to a set of beliefs and values. The book makes a strong case for the vitality of the discipline and its methodological centrality to new fields such as visual culture. This book will be of enormous value to undergraduate and graduate students, and also makes its own contributions to ongoing scholarly debates about theory and method. ;

        The ethics of researching the far right

        Critical approaches and reflections

        by Antonia Vaughan, Joan Braune, Meghan Tinsley, Aurelien Mondon

        At a time when far, radical, and extreme-right politics are becoming increasingly mainstream globally - sometimes with deadly consequences - research in these fields is essential to understand the most effective ways to combat these dangerous ideologies. Yet engaging with texts and movements that do physical and verbal violence raises a number of urgent ethical issues. Until recently, this has remained understudied, as scholarship on the far right rarely delves explicitly and critically into the ethics of research. This book seeks to remedy this significant gap in an otherwise extensive and growing literature. Originating from a workshop series in 2020, in which an international group of academics at various career stages shared the ethical challenges and best practices they had developed in their research, this edited collection draws together insights from these ongoing conversations, offering urgent critical reflections on key ethical issues.

        In the Permanent Collection

        by Stefanie Wortman

        Trying to make sense of a disordered world, Stefanie Wortman's debut collection examines works of art as varied as casts of antique sculpture, 19th-century novels, and even scenes from reality television to investigate the versions of order that they offer. These deft poems yield moments of surprising levity even as they mount a sharp critique of human folly.  "These poems seem haunted by a mostly nameless melancholia. In The Permanent Collection, however, turns its grim geography of prisons, mortuaries, and tawdry suburbs into something close to classical elegy. 'In sunken rooms,' Wortman writes, 'on scratchy rugs, maybe we’ve never known happiness.' It’s that 'maybe'—the smart hedge—that renders her poems complex, often beguiling, but never without a gesture of redemption. This should be part of any serious poet’s permanent collection."— Chad Davidson, author of The Last Predicta and judge

        Natural Antidepressants

        Gentle remedies to help you beat the blues

        by Dr. med. Eberhard J. Wormer

        The term "melancholia” goes back to ancient times and is used to describe an emotional state characterized by dark moods and gloom which inspired poets and philosophers to gloomy self-reflections. The clinical picture today is referred to as "depression”, and there seems to be a worldwide trend: Besides an alarming rise in depression related to various social factors, the consequential costs are also rising drastically – owing to unemployment, hospital treatment and early retirement, for example. Unfortunately, the health and quality of life of those affected are often carelessly jeopardized because strong psychiatric medicines are hastily prescribed. However, where undiagnosed deficiencies are what causes these mental ailments, chemical antidepressants usually do not have an effect, and their side effects add to the suffering of a patient already struggling with their depression. This compact guide explains both the symptom "depressive disorder" and the psychological illness "depression”, its focus is above all on numerous non-pharmacological antidepressants which are tolerated well, and on alternative therapeutic approaches: -symptoms, diagnoses and causes of depression -opportunities and risks of a pharmacological treatment -the body’s own antidepressants and those derived from plants -useful nutrients and measures to fight depression

        by Jean Findlay

        George Heriot, jeweller to King James VI, moves with the Court from Edinburgh to London to take over the English throne. It is 1603. Life is a Babel of languages and glittering new wealth. James gives Shakespeare his first secure position. To calm the perfidious religious tensions in the country, he commissions his translation of the Bible. He creates the Union Jack, called after himself. George becomes wealthier than the king as he sets a fashion for hat jewels and mingles with Drummond of Hawthornden, Ben Johnson, Inigo Jones and the mysterious ambassador Luca Von Modrich. However, both king and courtier bow before the phenomenal power invested in their wives.

        Shadows & Light, The Life of James McBey

        by Alasdair Soussi

        Creative genius, war artist, adventurer, lover. These are just some of the words that can be used to describe Aberdeenshire-born painter and printmaker James McBey (1883– 1959). This illegitimate son of a blacksmiths’ daughter was the acknowledged heir to Whistler and Rembrandt. But after his death in 1959, his renown as one of Britain’s most accomplished artists faded. At the heart of this biography is his time as a war artist in the Middle East during the Great War, his love affairs, marriage to a beautiful American and his enduring passion for Morocco. This biography reinstates a great 20th century artist whose respectful focus brought the Arab world into the British consciousness.
