Raul di Pace - Raul Di Pace - Bog - Images Publishing Group Pty Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Raul di Pace - Raul Di Pace - Bog - Images Publishing Group Pty Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The architecture work of Brazil-based Raul di Pace is guided by creativity and innovation. The firm''s focus always comes with the awareness that it is providing a service to its customer. The firm’s ideas happen naturally, and relate to the needs of the residents and their dreams for the place where they will live. A house is a place that must adapt to fit in with the time for which it is designed, and then it must continue to be a living environment as time and generations evolve. Before, cities had no running water and electricity—today most things are automated. To follow time is to adapt to new technologies, new materials, new habits and demands. We cannot imagine something as unchangeable, untouchable. A contemporary house cannot be simply a sanctuary. It should primarily be a pleasant space that provides adequate housing that serves the residents before anything else; it is up to the architect to remake, adapt, orient and reorient—all the while fulfilling this overall mission. Since the beginning, Raul di Pace’s architecture is about the search to reinvent oneself, to propose new solutions, built to suit specific purposes. Heavily influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright''s work, which was a process of reinvention from start to finish, this highly anticipated volume shows how Raul di Pace continues to reinvent its language based on the same premise: make less, splurge less, seek the essential. Text in English and Portuguese.

For Cuba--for Freedom! - Raul Andres Villamia - Bog - McFarland & Co Inc - Plusbog.dk

For Cuba--for Freedom! - Raul Andres Villamia - Bog - McFarland & Co Inc - Plusbog.dk

Raul Villamia''s childhood in Cuba revolved around baseball and bloodshed. The violence that he witnessed led him to support Castro''s revolution, and his brother Mario introduced him to Castro''s 26th of July Movement (M267). Minor league baseball brought him to the United States, where he hoped to pursue a career in the majors, and left Villamia uniquely placed to aid Castro''s revolution from abroad. From Tampa, New York City, Bridgeport, Union City, Miami, and Key West, the Villamias, Angel Perez-Vidal, Howard K. Davis and others supported Castro through fundraising, collecting supplies for the revolutionaries, propaganda campaigns, and arms smuggling. Raul rubbed elbows with Castro and his top men and with American gangsters who did business in Cuba. He was hounded by the FBI, and his brother Mario is mentioned in the Warren Commission Report. This memoir recalls Villamia''s experience as an advocate for Castro in the United States and tells the story of those in America whose efforts helped to oust Batista.

The Concept of the Individual in Psychoanalysis - Raul Moncayo - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Concept of the Individual in Psychoanalysis - Raul Moncayo - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Concept of the Individual in Psychoanalysis considers the different conceptions of the individual that are found in psychoanalysis according to the culture in which it operates, and its political structure. Considering the origins and use of concepts including the Ego, the Self, the Subject, and the Person, Raul Moncayo integrates Lacanian analysis with Freudian and Jungian theory, philosophy, and religion. Moncayo expands on the concepts in different cultures and political structures, including English, French, German, and Chinese. The book also considers the concept of the self as used by Winnicott, Kohut, and Lacan. The Concept of the Individual in Psychoanalysis will be of great interest to psychoanalysts in practice and in training, and to academics and students of Lacanian and psychoanalytic studies.

The Mind of Complex Numbers and the Subject in Analyses - Raul Moncayo - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Mind of Complex Numbers and the Subject in Analyses - Raul Moncayo - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

In The Mind of Complex Numbers and the Subject in Analyses, Raul Moncayo uses the complex plane to evaluate analytic outcomes. Moncayo’s approach provides a study of the process and outcome of singular analyses that does not rely on the methods and questionnaires of psychotherapy or medical research. With reference to topology and abstract mathematics, Moncayo explores the limits of the Cartesian plane for predicting the capacity for sublimation and positive outcome. By integrating the complex plane, Moncayo arrives at an exact number to ‘arithmetize’ symptoms and human capacities. This book represents a new approach to Lacanian analysis and outcomes that will be of great interest to Lacanian analysts in practice and in training.

Lacan, Jouissance, and the Social Sciences - Raul Moncayo - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Lacan, Jouissance, and the Social Sciences - Raul Moncayo - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Exploring how a Freudian-Lacanian approach to psychoanalysis intersects with social and cultural theory, Lacan, Jouissance, and the Social Sciences demonstrates the significance of subjectivity as a concept for the study of leadership, social psychology, culture, and political theory. Raul Moncayo examines Lacan’s notion of surplus jouissance in relation to four types of socio-economic value: Productive Value, Exchange Value, Surplus Value, and Profit. Also drawing on the work of Slavoj Žižek, Moncayo contends that surplus production cannot be reduced to alienated labor but rather includes various levels of jouissance-value. In this way, the jouissance that drives capitalization and organization can be theorized as constructive rather than destructive and encompass satisfaction and prosperity rather than individual suffering and asceticism or living with less. This volume will be of great interest to psychoanalysts both in practice and in training and to academics and scholars of psychoanalytic studies, Lacanian studies, and social sciences.

The Emptiness of Oedipus - Raul Moncayo - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Emptiness of Oedipus - Raul Moncayo - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Lacan''s seminar on identification marks a turning point from the early to the later years of his work. In this book, Raul Moncayo builds on many of the concepts that Lacan developed in his seminar, focusing on the relationship between the unary trait and narcissism that occurs via ruling ideas, master signifiers, and the objet a as a part object and a partial form of identification. Moncayo advances Lacanian psychoanalysis not only for its scholarly value, but also for its bearing on the clinical practice of psychoanalysis today. The question of Oedipus as a myth of Freud is the touchstone from which Lacan proposed to go beyond Freud and beyond the rock of castration. The Emptiness of Oedipus examines how the interpretation of Oedipus as a myth or dream, rather than a complex, provides a new way of understanding the end of analysis as the end of the identification with the analyst. The concept is proposed as Lacan’s postmodern or poststructuralist turn and as a fourth moment of Oedipus that is organized around the lack or emptiness of the Other. The Emptiness of Oedipus offers a fresh approach to Lacanian psychoanalysis and will appeal to analysts and psychotherapists as well as academics and postgraduates with an interest in Lacan.

The Politics of Memory - Raul Hilberg - Bog - Ivan R Dee, Inc - Plusbog.dk

The Politics of Memory - Raul Hilberg - Bog - Ivan R Dee, Inc - Plusbog.dk

This is the poignant memoir of a man who has spent most of his lifetime immersed in the evidence of one of the great horrors in human history. It is both a record of how it affected him and a revelation of the surprising ways in which his monumental work was received by his contemporaries. Even after thirty-five years, Raul Hilberg’s The Destruction of the European Jews remains the most distinguished and comprehensive analysis of the Nazi destruction process. Yet at the time it was written, as Mr. Hilberg recounts in The Politics of Memory, both the manuscript and its subject matter were rejected by major publishers and university presses; and in the wake of publication the author faced a hostile reception from those who refused to believe that the Jews were less than heroic in their journey to the gas chambers. How his study was used and abused—especially by Hannah Arendt, Lucy Dawidowicz, and Nora Levin—draws Mr. Hilberg’s attention, as does the more admiring reception for Destruction in Europe than in America. The Politics of Memory brings full circle a scholarly enterprise that in many ways has been a terrible calling.

The Signifier Pointing at the Moon - Raul Moncayo - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The Signifier Pointing at the Moon - Raul Moncayo - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Within the context of a careful review of the psychology of religion and prior non-Lacanian literature on the subject, Raul Moncayo builds a bridge between Lacanian psychoanalysis and Zen Buddhism that steers clear of reducing one to the other or creating a simplistic synthesis between the two. Instead, by making a purposeful "One-mistake" of "unknown knowing", this book remains consistent with the analytic unconscious and continues in the splendid tradition of Bodhidharma who did not know "Who" he was and told Emperor Wu that there was no merit in building temples for Buddhism. Both traditions converge on the teaching that "true subject is no ego", or on the realisation that a new subject requires the symbolic death or deconstruction of imaginary ego-identifications. Although Lacanian psychoanalysis is known for its focus on language and Zen is considered a form of transmission outside the scriptures, Zen is not without words while Lacanian psychoanalysis stresses the senseless letter of the Real or of a jouissance written on and with the body.
