  • - An alternative to psychiatric diagnosis
    av Mary Boyle
    224,-

    The current mainstream way of describing psychological and emotional distress assumes it is the result of medical illnesses that need diagnosing and treating. This book summarises the Power Threat Meaning Framework as an alternative to psychiatric diagnosis - an alternative that asks not 'What's wrong with you?' but 'What's happened to you?'

    Have you ever felt like you are the only one going through something? You are alone, hurting, and the harder you try, the bigger the circumstances get? Me too! I have walked many unwise decisions or circumstances not in my control, but I am here to tell you that there is a God that never leaves or forsakes us. My hope is that you will find solace in the outcome of how God's healing hand took my broken vessel and molded me into His vessel, and that you, too, will know He is with you.

    Identifies and investigates international medievalism through three distinct strands: "e;Internationally Nationalist"e;, "e;Someone Else's Past?"e;, and "e;Activist Medievalism"e;.Medievalism - the reception of the Middle Ages - often invokes a set of tropes generally considered 'medieval', rather than consciously engaging with medieval cultures and societies. International medievalism offers an additional interpretative layer by juxtaposing two or more national cultures, at least one of which is medieval. 'National' can be aspirational: it might refer to the area within agreed borders, or to the people who live there, but it might also describe the people who understand, or imagine, themselves to constitute a nation. And once 'medieval' becomes simply a collection of ideas, it can be re-formed as desired, cast as more geographically than historically specific, or function as a gateway to an even more nebulous past.This collection identifies and investigates international medievalism through three distinct strands, 'Internationally Nationalist', 'Someone Else's Past?', and 'Activist Medievalism', exploring medievalist media from the textual to the architectural. Subjects range from The Green Children of Woolpit to Refugee Tales, and from Viking metal to Joan of Arc. As the contributors to each section make clear, for centuries the medieval has provided material for countless competing causes and cannot be contained within historical, political, or national borders. The essays show how the medieval is repeatedly co-opted and recreated, formed as much as formative: inviting us to ask why, and in service of what.
