Nancy T. de Grummond, Brunilde S. Ridgway, "From Pergamon to Sperlonga: Sculpture and Context (Hellenistic Culture and Society)"
English | 2001 | pages: 405 | ISBN: 0520223276 | PDF | 28,1 mb
This volume brings together the work of leading scholars on two of the most important, yet puzzling, extant ensembles of Hellenistic Age sculpture: the Great Altar at Pergamon, with its Gigantomachy and scenes from the life of Telephos, and the Cave at Sperlonga in Italy, with its epic themes connected especially with the adventures of Odysseus. From Pergamon to Sperlonga has three aims: to update the scholarship on two important monuments of ancient art and architecture; to debate questions of iconography, authorship, and date; and to broaden the scope of discussion on these monuments beyond the boundaries of studies done in the past. In addition, the volume brings forward new ideas about how these two monuments are connected and discusses possible means by which stylistic influences were transmitted between them.

From Pain to Violence: The Traumatic Roots of Destructiveness, Second Edition By Felicity de Zulueta(auth.)
2006 | 406 Pages | ISBN: 0470019360 | PDF | 2 MB
Violence is all around us; yet, despite its widespread prevalence, we remain unclear about its causes. In this book Felicity de Zulueta - begins by defining "violence" as distinct from "aggression", and then attempts to trace its origins, highlighting the polarization between those who believe mankind to be innately violent and those who see violence as the outcome of man's life experiences. As a result of her investigations, the author suggests that the current high level of violence may well be linked to the effects of childhood and adult trauma which appear to be far more widespread than has hitherto been acknowledged. These findings are relevant to understanding why "normal" people can become violent in certain conditions. This is a second edition and has been fully updated. A new chapter on terrorism has been added.Content: Chapter 1 A Case of Violence (pages 9-18): Chapter 2 The Myth of Original Sin and the Death Instinct (pages 19-33): Chapter 3 Aggression and Violence (pages 34-52): Chapter 4 From Attunement to Attachment and the Trauma of Loss (pages 53-76): Chapter 5 The Psychobiological Roots of Violence (pages 77-90): Chapter 6 Secure and Insecure Attachments in the Formation of the Self (pages 91-113): Chapter 7 Self and Other (pages 114-136): Chapter 8 In Defence of the Self (pages 137-158): Chapter 9 The Unspeakable: Child Sexual Abuse (pages 159-184): Chapter 10 Psychological Trauma and Attachment (pages 185-210): Chapter 11 From Psychological Trauma to Violence and Psychiatric Illness (pages 211-233): Chapter 12 Cultures and Violence (pages 235-263): Chapter 13 The Dehumanisation of the 'Other' (pages 264-292): Chapter 14 The Traumatic Origins of Legitimate Violence (pages 293-321): Chapter 15 Love and Hate (pages 322-345):
