He viewed himself as having two personalities - he believed he was both a schoolboy living in the current era and an influential and authoritarian man from the 18th century.Įarly on, Jung noticed pathological behavior in both his parents, which he often tried to resolve.

Birth & DeathĬarl Gustave Jung was born in 1910 in Kesswil, Switzerland. This was something he embraced in his late 30s after deciding it was an excellent learning opportunity.įrom this self-experimentation came some of Jung’s most interesting and contested ideas on the origin of human consciousness. Throughout his life, Jung experienced bouts of schizophrenia and delirium. Jung was incredibly intelligent but also suffered greatly. His models are often used as the basis for psychedelic-assisted therapy today. He developed the model of analytical psychology (Jungian Analysis) - which was well ahead of his time and is more reflective of modern therapy. Carl Jung was a Swiss psychologist, famous for coining terms like extroversion and introversion, collective unconsciousness, archetypes, individuation, synchronicity, and shadow.

In recent years, Potok's story has reached a new generation and returned to an older one through a 2009 stage adaptation by American playwright Aaron Posner that has a flurry of productions in North America. It was written in 1972 by Chaim Potok, an American who knew more than a thing or two about being at the intersection of religion and art, being both a rabbi and an author. My Name is Asher Lev is a novel about a Hasidic Jew in postwar Brooklyn who grows up to be a well-known painter – and, pulled between his faith and his creativity, tries to reconcile the two with tragic results. Also, even though the idea of a dangerous sound might not sound particularly frightening, some of the incidents within this book are truly nightmare-inducing and will stay with you long after you turn the final pages (even the very last chapter has a real doozy). The Noise is simply full of action, and more than once it crossed my mind what an excellent movie it would make because of this. The village is decimated, but not before the girls’ quick-thinking father shoves them into an underground storm shelter in a last-ditch effort to save them.Ī team of experts is quickly brought in to investigate what could have happened up there on the mountain- and it’s here that it gets difficult to reveal much more without getting into spoilers. They’re out catching rabbits when an unbearably painful sound reverberates around the hills and valleys. The Noise opens with two young girls living in a mountainside community that’s isolated from the outside world by choice. James Patterson’s previous collaboration with JD Barker - The Coast to Coast Murders - was more of a crime thriller, but the pair’s most recent release The Noise sees them wander much more into horror and even sci-fi territory - and I’m definitely here for it.

Wisdom takes many different forms in the play, and in Euripides truth has many faces. Seemingly opposite forces tend to dissolve into each other, and powers we thought were neatly separated turn out to be part of the same order (or chaos). Another danger of analyzing the play through the lens of these oppositions is that Euripides tends to show how these binaries are inadequate. The Bacchae is about all of these forces, and more. The reader must not mistake any one of these oppositions as being adequate in explaining the whole work. Critics have, in various interpretations, tried to make Pentheus and Dionysus into symbols for the two forces in any one of these binaries, with Pentheus representing the first half of each pair and Dionysus representing the second half. Many of the themes examined in this study guide will involve opposing forces: rationality versus irrationality, the Greek versus the foreign, skepticism versus piety, civilization versus savagery or nature, and so on. This play is extremely complex, and any attempt to boil it down to basic themes will oversimplify the depth and richness of the work. Skepticism versus piety, reason versus irrationality, Greek versus foreign, male versus female/androgynous, civilization versus savagery 7/7/2023 0 Comments Rl stine camp nightmareWhat's going on? Why won't his parents answer his letters? What's lurking out there after dark? Camp Nightmoon is turning into Camp Nightmare. But then his fellow campers start to disappear.
