This book brings together the overlapping paths of psychology, spirituality and gestalt therapy. It considers the life of pioneers who have gone before on this journey and left a well marked trail for others to follow - those who have contributed to the bridging of the psychological and spiritual, such as Carl Jung, Evelyn Underhill, William James, Emanuel Swedenborg, Roberto Assagioli, Viktor Frankl and Wilson Van Dusen. It begins with a series of essays on spirituality and psychology and moves to the specific relationship between spirituality and gestalt therapy. This book attends to what many people can relate to today - the common threads which bring understanding to our life through these interrelated streams - spirituality, psychotherapy and our search for meaning.
This book examines the native Irish experience of conquest and colonisation in Ulster in the first decades of the seventeenth century. Central to this argument is that the Ulster plantation bears more comparisons to European expansion throughout the Atlantic than (as some historians have argued) the early-modern state’s consolidation of control over its peripheral territories. Farrell also demonstrates that plantation Ulster did not see any significant attempt to transform the Irish culturally or economically in these years, notwithstanding the rhetoric of a ‘civilising mission’. Challenging recent scholarship on the integrative aspects of plantation society, he argues that this emphasis obscures the antagonism which characterised relations between native and newcomer until the eve of the 1641 rising. This book is of interest not only to students of early-modern Ireland but is also a valuable contribution to the burgeoning field of Atlantic history and indeed colonial studies in general.
First published in 1867, this is a translation, with scholarly introduction and notes, of a valuable Middle Irish chronicle.
