Sumario: | "Karl Scheibe's book has a dramatic ambition: the transformation of psychology, and with it, the transformation of our flattened senses. Arguing that many subjects can be better illuminated by the way they work in our real lives than by experimental abstractions, Scheibe urges on us a psychology that explores the self-representation, performance, and scripts in everyday experience, and in doing so, ties together many of our observations about human beings' relationships with one other, and with our private selves. He imagines, and makes his readers imagine, a psychology that is informed by the dramatic perspectives provided by literature, poetry, philosophy, history, music, and theater - and casinos, classrooms, kitchens, and dance floors, too."--Jacket |
