Spiritual Art and Art Education

Spiritual Art and Art Education

Janis Lander

Routledge
2013
sidottu
This book is a study of contemporary spirituality as it is practiced in the world today, characterized by its secular and inclusive nature, and applied to art and art education. It identifies the issues facing a formal introduction of contemporary spiritual concepts into a secular and multicultural arts educational environment. Lander begins by separating the notion of "the spiritual" from the study of organized religions. She uses examples of art from different cultures in contemporary spiritual systems, making the study a reference book for contemporary spirituality and spirituality in art education, with usable definitions and practical examples suitable for scholars in art and visual studies, art education, and contemporary spirituality.

Extraordinary Conditions

Extraordinary Conditions

Janis H. Jenkins

University of California Press
2015
sidottu
With a fine-tuned ethnographic sensibility, Janis H Jenkins explores the lived experience of psychosis, trauma, and depression among people of diverse cultural orientations, revealing how mental illness engages fundamental human processes of self, desire, gender, identity, attachment, and interpretation. Extraordinary Conditions illuminates the cultural shaping of extreme psychological suffering and the social rendering of the mentally ill as nonhuman or not fully human. Jenkins contends that mental illness is better characterized in terms of struggle than symptoms and that culture is central to all aspects of mental illness from onset to recovery. Her analysis refashions the boundaries between the ordinary and the extraordinary, the routine and the extreme, and the healthy and the pathological. This book asserts that the study of mental illness is indispensable to the anthropological understanding of culture and experience, and reciprocally that understanding culture and experience is critical to the study of mental illness.

Troubled in the Land of Enchantment

Troubled in the Land of Enchantment

Janis H. Jenkins; Thomas J. Csordas

University of California Press
2020
sidottu
In this groundbreaking study based on five years of in-depth ethnographic and interdisciplinary research, Troubled in the Land of Enchantment explores the well-being of adolescents hospitalized for psychiatric care in New Mexico. Anthropologists Janis H. Jenkins and Thomas J. Csordas present a gripping picture of psychic distress, familial turmoil, and treatment under the regime of managed care that dominates the mental health care system. The authors make the case for the centrality of struggle in the lives of youth across an array of extraordinary conditions, characterized by personal anguish and structural violence. Critical to the analysis is the cultural phenomenology of existence disclosed through shifting narrative accounts by youth and their families as they grapple with psychiatric diagnosis, poverty, misogyny, and stigma in their trajectories through multiple forms of harm and sites of care. Jenkins and Csordas compellingly direct our attention to the conjunction of lived experience, institutional power, and the very possibility of having a life.

Literature and Medicine in Nineteenth-Century Britain

Literature and Medicine in Nineteenth-Century Britain

Janis McLarren Caldwell

Cambridge University Press
2008
pokkari
Although we have come to regard 'clinical' and 'romantic' as oppositional terms, romantic literature and clinical medicine were fed by the same cultural configurations. In the pre-Darwinian nineteenth century, writers and doctors developed an interpretive method that negotiated between literary and scientific knowledge of the natural world. Literary writers produced potent myths that juxtaposed the natural and the supernatural, often disturbing the conventional dualist hierarchy of spirit over flesh. Clinicians developed the two-part history and physical examination, weighing the patient's narrative against the evidence of the body. Examining fiction by Mary Shelley, Carlyle, the Brontës and George Eliot, alongside biomedical lectures, textbooks and articles, Janis McLarren Caldwell demonstrates the similar ways of reading employed by nineteenth-century doctors and imaginative writers and reveals the complexities and creative exchanges of the relationship between literature and medicine.

Kids To The Rescue

Kids To The Rescue

Kids to the Rescue
2019
sidottu
Children are very vulnerable and from the time of birth, they need to be nourished and guided. At a very early age, kids learn from adults, rights and wrongs, dos and don'ts and experience natural feelings that are scary and unexplained to them at the time.So, I have set forth, in my own way, to educate anyone who has children in their care, how to alleviate all fears in regards to emergency and crisis situations, that can happen in their environment. I need to impress upon you, that the education of emergency protocol, as simple as it may seem, has to be taken seriously. As teachers of children, we must give them the tools to find a happy medium and explain to them what to do if certain emergency situations should arise. Kids need to get in touch with their emotions and understand why they feel what they feel before, during and after these situations. The only sure investment we can count on is our kids. We need to nurture and protect them. The giving of ourselves personally and professionally should never be an issue to the well being of our children. They are our future.
