Old and Alone

Autor: Jeremy Tunstall

Número de Páginas: 277

What is it like to be an isolated old widow, living alone on the bare old-age pension? In the 1960s, the question had become a standard refrain. Originally published in 1966, this was the first full-length study by a sociologist of isolation in old age. Although the majority of old people were in no sense a problem group at the time, a substantial minority of the elderly were ‘alone’ in one or more ways. About 1.3 million people aged sixty-five and over in Britain lived alone; a large number admitted to feeling lonely, at least sometime. About a million were actually socially isolated in terms of low level and frequency of social contact. Mr Tunstall also uses a fourth category of aloneness – namely anomie (as developed by Durkheim, Merton, and Srole). This report uses careful and statistical analysis of the four types of aloneness and of specially affected groups such as the single, the recently widowed, and the housebound. But it also includes details of interviews with ten highly individual old people from suburban Harrow, booming Northampton, industrial revolution Oldham, and rural South Norfolk. The book contains a discussion of the problem of personality in isolation,...

The Alone to the Alone

Autor: Gwyn Thomas

Número de Páginas: 205

The Alone to the Alone unites Gwyn Thomas's lyrical and philosophical flights of narrative in a satire whose savagery is only relieved by irrepressible laughter. It is Gwyn Thomas most shaped work: the underlying meaning of South Wales history is not so much documented as laid bare for universal dissection and dissemination. The novel, with its distinctive plural narration, is a choric commentary on human illusion and knowledge, on power and its attendant deprivation, on dreams and their destruction.

Living Alone, Living Together

Autor: Peter King

Número de Páginas: 137

This book considers how a dwelling can protect and promote both our anxieties and our relationships. Both essays use a non-traditional literature to explore being alone and being with others, rather than relying on the social science literature, and offer a distinct and original contribution to the housing studies literature.

Alone in the World?

Autor: Van Huyssteen

Número de Páginas: 392

In Alone in the World? -- first given as the 2004 Gifford Lectures at the University of Edinburgh -- J. Wentzel van Huyssteen develops the interdisciplinary dialogue that he set out in The Shaping of Rationality (1999), applying this methodology to the uncharted waters between theological anthropology and paleoanthropology. Among other things, van Huyssteen argues that scientific notions of human uniqueness help us to ground theological notions of human distinctiveness in flesh-and-blood, embodied experiences and protect us from overly complex theological abstractions regarding the "image of God." Focusing on the interdisciplinary problem of human origins and distinctiveness, van Huyssteen accesses the origins of the embodied human mind through the spectacular prehistoric cave paintings of western Europe, fifteen of which are reproduced in color in this volume. Boldly connecting the widely separated fields of Christian theology and paleoanthropology through careful interdisciplinary reflection, Alone in the World? will encourage sustained investigation into the question of human uniqueness.

By Faith Alone

Autor: Lev Shestov

Número de Páginas: 241

Lev Shestov's By Faith Alone confronts Eastern and Western European conceptions of faith through Russian literature, ancient and medieval philosophy, and Christian theology. Written from 1910-1914, this first English-language translation brings together important early writings on the medieval church and Martin Luther. Shestov reconciles the Greek notion of rational truth with Biblical revelation by drawing on a wide range of ancient, medieval, philosophical and theological sources from Plato to Hegel, Tertullian to Saint Augustine , and Saint Bernard of Clairvaux to William of Ockam. He argues that rational truth has skewed Christian belief by determining knowledge and truth in ways that prize the mind over the world. This approach marks a turning point in the evolution of Shestov's existential thought. It establishes a basic division that became central to Shestov's later work, between Athens as reason and Jerusalem as faith. By Faith Alone provides a crucial piece of the puzzle in the genesis of Shestov's later and better-known writings on medieval philosophy.

Alone and Invisible No More

Autor: Allan S. Teel

Número de Páginas: 218

"Within the next two decades, tens of millions of Americans will reach the age where they will need either significant support to stay in their own homes or a cost-effective residential alternative. The current state of elder care in America is appalling, expensive, and unsustainable. It underserves the majority of elderly Americans and bankrupts all but the richest few while virtually ignoring this population's complex physical and mental needs. At a time when we should be celebrating the achievements and wisdom of the oldest citizens, we instead find ways to overmedicate and isolate them in dehumanizing nursing-home facilities. And space for more residents within this system is running out. There must be a better way! In Alone and Invisible No More, physician Dr. Allan S. Teel, MD, describes a philosophy and a course of action that have turned aging in place into a viable alternative for dozens of elderly residents in Damariscotta, Maine. Teel lays out a course of action to expand his approach to the millions of Americans approaching retirement age and how these techniques can be used to avert the financial and personal disaster approaching nationwide. He discusses the...

LA BIOGRAFÍA DEFINITIVA DE NICO: LA ICÓNICA Y MISTERIOSA CANTANTE, SUPERESTRELLA DE WARHOL Y MUSA DE PHILIPPE GARREL, VOCALISTA DE THE VELVET UNDERGROUND E INFLUYENTE ARTISTA EN SOLITARIO Christa Päffgen nació en Colonia (Alemania) en 1938 y padeció de niña los horrores de la guerra. Su extraordinaria belleza pronto la condujo a posar de modelo internacional para los mejores fotógrafos y revistas, momento en el que adoptó el nombre de "Nico", que la acompañaría el resto de su tormentosa vida. Su fama se disparó cuando Federico Fellini le dio un papel en la mítica La dolce vita. Poco después recaló en Nueva York, donde Andy Warhol la introdujo en el séquito de la Factory y, además de protagonizar muchas de sus películas —entre otras, Chelsea Girls— y erigirla en Superstar, la embutió un poco a la fuerza en el grupo fundado por Lou Reed y John Cale, The Velvet Underground. Con ellos grabó el que posiblemente sea uno de los mejores discos de la historia del rock, el icónico vinilo del plátano, producido por el propio Warhol: The Velvet Underground & Nico, donde la alemana cantó en "Femme Fatale", "All Tomorrow's Parties" y "I'll Be Your Mirror" con su...
