Shakespeare's Feminine Endings: Disfiguring Death in the Tragedies
Philippa Berry draws on feminist theory, postmodern thought and queer theory, to challenge existing critical notions of what is fundamental to Shakespearean tragedy. She shows how, through a network of images clustered around feminine or feminized characters, these plays 'disfigure' conventional ideas of death as a bodily end, as their figures of women are interwoven with provocative meditations upon matter, time, the soul, and the body. The scope of these tragic speculations was radical in Shakespeare's day; yet they also have a surprising relevance to contemporary debates about time and matter in science and philosophy.
"Eco wittily and enchantingly develops themes often touched on in his previous works, but he delves deeper into their complex nature... this collection can be read with pleasure by those unversed in semiotic theory." -- Times Literary Supplement
Sigmund Freud once described the application of psychoanalysis to pedagogy as “the most important of all the activities of analysis.” In this exciting book, Cho takes up this activity. Examining the work of Jacques Lacan and Freud, he argues that a theory of pedagogy is already embedded within psychoanalysis. Psychopedagogy is the name given to this embedded theory. Through a discussion of key psychoanalytic concepts, such as, the unconscious, resistance, the ego, and transference, as well as a variety of other topics, Cho develops the contours of psychopedagogy.
