Leben und Meinungen von Tristram Shandy Gentleman
by Laurence Sterne, Adolf Friedrich Seubert
Tristram Shandy setzt an, seine Lebensgeschichte lückenlos zu erzählen. Doch dabei wird er immer wieder gestört. Da tritt sein Vater Walter auf den Plan, kopflastig und autoritätsgläubig, der in seiner Unfähigkeit zu handeln allerhand Unglücksfälle heraufbeschwört, und Tristrams Onkel Toby taucht auf, ein ehemaliger Offizier, der in seinem Gemüsegarten die Feldzüge, an denen er beteiligt war, mit einer Spielzeugarmee nachstellt. Und dann treten noch allerlei andere wunderliche Typen mit ihren Steckenpferden auf, über die berichtet werden muss. Laurence Sternes »Tristram Shandy« gilt wegen seines raffinierten und ungemein vergnüglichen Spiels mit den Möglichkeiten des Erzählens als erster moderner Roman.

Critical theory and feeling
The affective politics of the early Frankfurt School
by Simon Mussell
This book offers a unique and timely reading of the early Frankfurt School in response to the recent 'affective turn' within the arts and humanities. Resisting the overly rationalist tendencies of political philosophy, it argues that critical theory actively cultivates a powerful connection between thinking and feeling, and rediscovers a range of often neglected concepts that were of vital importance to the first generation of critical theorists, including melancholia, hope, (un)happiness, objects and mimesis. In doing so, it brings the dynamic work of Walter Benjamin, Theodor Adorno, Ernst Bloch and Siegfried Kracauer into conversation with more recent debates around politics and affect. An important intervention in the fields of affect studies and social and political thought, Critical theory and feeling shows that sensuous experience is at the heart of the Frankfurt School's affective politics.

Seduced into Darkness
by Carrie Ishee
Seduced Into Darkness: Transcending My Psychiatrist's Sexual Abuse is a vivid and captivating story of hope for survivors of abuse as well as a case study in a skilled manipulator's tragic exploitation of his professional power.This poignant memoir chronicles the traumatic psychological abduction and sexual exploitation of depressed college student Carrie Tansey at the hands of her psychiatrist, Dr. Anthony Romano―thirty-one years her senior. For three years, their secret “affair” was carefully calculated and controlled by Romano, as Carrie's mental and emotional health continued to deteriorate, bringing her closer and closer to the edge.Their dual-relationship―clinical and clandestine―finally came to light when Carrie's suicide attempts landed her in a world-renowned psychiatric hospital. Gradually, she began to reclaim her power, reported Romano to the state licensing board, successfully sued him for malpractice, and testified before the state legislature to help pass a law aimed at curbing such abuses.As Carrie tells her tale, it is a journey paralleling that of the mythical archetype Persephone, the naive innocent who was abducted into darkness, reemerged and regenerated herself, then fearlessly returned to the prison she had fled, this time to help free others. Today, Carrie Ishee is a widely respected art therapist and life coach as well as a teacher specializing in the issues of ethics and boundaries for mental health professionals.
