“A HUMAN IS AN ANIMAL AND AN ANIMAL IS A HUMAN”: TRANSFORMATION FROM HUMAN TO ANIMAL IN SLOVENIAN BALLAD TRADITION

Author(s): Marjetka Golež Kaučić / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The most famous authors on topic of transformation from human to animal in the tradition of European literature were Publius Ovidius Naso (Metamorphoses) and Franz Kafka (Metamorphoses), both of whom conceptualized the parallel worlds of reality and mythology. In the Slovenian ballad tradition we can trace several mythological ballads with thematic transformations from human to animal and back, as well of animal brides and grooms. This paper focuses on the question of the parallel worlds of animal and human and about the fluid boundaries between them as represented in ballad stories. By analyzing a number of ballads and incorporating theoretical perspectives from folkloristics, psychoanalysis, cultural anthropology, critical animal studies and zoofolkloristics, I will uncover the purpose of mythological transformations and their imagery. The underlying question is whether these mythological stories represent a notional duality of human versus animal and nature versus culture, or to what degree the stories may transcend this conceptual juxtaposition.

“Deli ve Dâhi” Filminin Psikiyatrinin Tarihi ve Psikiyatrik Tedaviler Çerçevesinde Değerlendirilmesi

Author(s): Eda Mert,Hülya Arslantaş / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 3/2022

In prehistoric times, people thought that mental illnesses were caused by supernatural forces. For this reason, it is long overdue to accept the view that mental illnesses are diseases that need to be “treated” in the historical process. During these periods, when scientific approaches were not developed, those with mental disorders were branded with adjectives such as “guilty”, “sinful”, “mad”. Basing the approach to these patients on scientific foundations was not possible before the middle of the nineteenth century. In contrast to the negative approaches to those with mental disorders in the past, it is seen that issues such as psychiatric education, patient-therapist communication, psychosocial initiatives are becoming important today and motion pictures are one of the tools that can be used in the context of embodying these issues. It is thought that examining the practices in the field of psychiatry in the past, as embodied in the movies, will be beneficial in terms of seeing the difference between the past and the present in terms of training to be given to mental health professionals and informing the society about attitudes towards individuals with mental disorders. As a matter of fact, ignorance of unsuccessful approaches and practices in the past may cause similar failures to be experienced again. In this context, in this review, in which the approaches and practices in the field of psychiatry in the past are presented as they are embodied in the film, it is aimed to examine the movie “The Professor and The Madman” in the light of literature information in terms of the history of psychiatry and psychiatric treatments. In this way, it is thought that today’s psychiatric practices and opinions can be developed more in favor of individuals with mental disorders. In this respect, it is suggested that the film be recommended to health professionals in the field of mental health and students studying in this field.

Author(s): Ivelina Peneva / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 3/2022

The article summarized the results of the research activity of Andrey Rossokhin, which is devoted to studying the dynamics of reflection in the altered states of consciousness in the course of psychoanalytic process.

Фридрих Ницше – новата религия на метафизическия нихилизъм

Author(s): Rosen Rachev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 3/2018

Human life is an endless sequence of problem situations and ways to overcome them. Friedrich Nietzsche proclaims doubt and nihilism as forms of existence in problem situation. They are the foundation of the „reassessment of all values“. This reassessment is oriented to traditional, approved and wide spread principles and norms in society. The skepticism is an initial position and a transitional stage of denial. If someone denies something without thinking of it, he acts emotionally. Friedrich Nietzsche is a nihilist because his attitude is based on doubts, which are rationally motivated. In this paper the arguments are derived from his books “Thus Spoke Zarathustra”, “The Antichrist” and “Twilight of the Idols”.

Author(s): Stoil Mavrodiev,Desislava Ivanova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 3/2016

Helene Deutsch was one of the first female psychoanalysts. Freud treated her with admiration and supported her development, because in his eyes she harmonizes certain professional competition along with beauty, charm and kindness inherent to femininity. In 1944, Helene Deutsch published her two-volume book “The Psychology of Women. A psychoanalytic interpretation”. The book has many editions and was translated into several languages. Therefore Helene Deutsch often is labelled as a specialist in “female psychology”. Although she does not agree with this definition, her name is mainly related to this work and with its in-depth study of the female spirit.

Хистерията в психоанализата – от симптома до дискурса. (Хистеричката и психоаналитикът – една (не)любовна история)

Author(s): Milena Motsinova-Brachkova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 1/2020

Hysteria offers a particularly appropriate discourse for bringing out the unconscious, since its symptoms show how, through conversion, mental suffering manifests itself as bodily. Analytical work creates a transfer clinic and relies on a specific use of the word, which leads to unexpected findings.The development of the psychoanalytic approach today makes it clear that in order to understand hysteria, it must not be equated with femininity. The main issue of the hysterical subject is actually the issue of gender difference. Lacanian psychoanalysis introduces the idea of giving up the body in hysteria and associates the hysterical symptom with a lack of identification.

Author(s): Aygul Mehmedova / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2018

Чуждост, отчуждение и бунт: препрочит на Сартр през Кръстева и обратно

Author(s): Yvanka Raynova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

Two main problems in Julia Kristeva's work, which she has constantly thematized for years, are the foreign in its various dimensions and the rebellion. A number of researchers emphasize that she adopted the theme of foreignness and the alien from Freudian psychoanalysis, insofar as through introspection and penetration into the unconscious we discover the foreign in ourselves. While this is true, there is one moment of central importance that has been completely ignored, namely the fact that Kristeva directly borrowed the title of her book 'Etrangers à nous-mêmes' from the mouth of Orestes in Sartre's play 'Les mouches' (The Flies). Ignoring this fact is not accidental. Although tens of thousands of pages have been written on both, Sartre and Kristeva, the thematic connection between the two authors has hardly been explored. Therefore, the purpose of the present article is to carry out a first critical reading of Sartre through Krsteva and vice versa, showing the problematic nature of her psychoanalytical interpretation of Sartre's philosophy.

Ширење на субјектот

Author(s): Jasna Koteska / Language(s): English,Macedonian Issue: 1-2/2005

We begin this text with the opening of the question on the status of the unconscious in Freud” work. We trust that this central issue of psychoanalysis is not void of certain conceptual wallings which we shall call ontological because they stand as gaps around the question on the nature of the unconscious. In the 11th seminar to Jacques- Alain Miller’s question on the status of the unconscious, Lacan answers that the unconscious has a vague ontic status, but does have a structure, that the gap of the unconscious is pre-ontological, and finally, that the status of the unconscious is ethical, rendered to it by its discoverer, Freud.
