The Soul in Soulless Psychology
Although modern psychology rejected the concept of the 'soul', it has thrived over the past 150 years, in surprising areas.
HISTORIA DE LA PSICOLOGÍA
Este manual está ideado para servir de texto básico para la asignatura de Historia de la Psicología, y proporciona claves para entender cómo esta disciplina se ha ido constituyendo en el tiempo hasta configurar el panorama contemporáneo. El relato toma la figura de Wilhelm Wundt y la creación del primer laboratorio de psicología experimental como eje organizador de los contenidos. A través de ellos se identifican algunos elementos decisivos del pensamiento filosófico y científico que precedieron a la sistematización wundtiana. El manual presenta también las principales perspectivas y escuelas surgidas inmediatamente después de la institucionalización de la Psicología, a finale...
Making Spirit Matter
"The problem of the relation between mind and brain has been among the most persistent in modern Western thought, one that even recent advances in neuroscience haven't been able to put to rest. Historian Larry McGrath's Making Spirit Matter is about how a particularly productive and influential generation of late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century French thinkers attempted to answer this puzzle by showing the mutual dependence of spirit and matter. The veritable revolution taking place across disciplines, from philosophy to psychology, located our spiritual powers in the brain and offered a radical reformulation of the meaning of science, spirit, and the self. Pulling out connections between thinkers such as Bergson, Blondel, and FouilleáI p1 se, among others, McGrath plots the intellectual movements that brought back to life themes of agency, time, and experience by putting into action the very sciences that seemed to undermine metaphysics and theology. In so doing, Making Spirit Matter lays bare the long legacy of this moment in the history of ideas and how it might renew our understanding of the relationship between mind and brain"--

The Early Foucault
It was not until 1961 that Foucault published his first major book, History of Madness. He had already been working as an academic for a decade, teaching in Lille and Paris, writing, organizing cultural programmes and lecturing in Uppsala, Warsaw and Hamburg. Although he published little in this period, Foucault wrote much more, some of which has been preserved and only recently become available to researchers. Drawing on archives in France, Germany, Switzerland, Sweden and the USA, this is the most detailed study yet of Foucault’s early career. It recounts his debt to teachers including Louis Althusser, Jean Hyppolite, Maurice Merleau-Ponty and Jean Wahl; his diploma thesis on Hegel; and ...
L'invention de la technologie
La technologie, entendue comme la discipline qui étudie les techniques, prend son essor au XXe siècle, grâce notamment à l'apport décisif d’André Leroi-Gourhan. Son œuvre foisonnante atteste d'une certaine « indiscipline » dans ses approches et ses thématiques. Aux côtés de ses démarches expérimentales et documentaires, il s'entoure de mots-clefs et de concepts tels la « tendance », l'« élan vital » ou la « libération ». Dans un premier temps, Leroi-Gourhan s'investit dans l'étude des « civilisations matérielles », fondée sur les objets, sous l'influence de Marcel Mauss et de Paul Rivet. Une inflexion décisive est donnée à sa pensée par L'Évolution créatric...

The Oxford Encyclopedia of the History of Modern Psychology
The history of psychology as a scholarly field has grown and diversified since the landmark volumes of E. G. Boring's A History of Experimental Psychology (1929, 1950). It is now a site of scholarly inquiry that attracts practitioners from a range of disciplines. Psychological concepts and practices hold interest for people from all walks of life and from around the globe. The Oxford Encyclopedia of the History of Modern Psychology reflects the range of such interest. The essays explore topics from everyday subjective experiences to deep connections among esoteric laboratory sciences and Enlightenment philosophies. Authors seek to answer difficult questions about how psychology developed, no...
The Routledge International Handbook of Talcott Parsons Studies
Talcott Parsons was the leading theorist in American sociology—and perhaps in world sociology—from the 1940s to the 1970s. He created the dominant school of thought that made "Parsonian" a standard description of a theoretical attempt to unify social science, as reflected in the fact that his contributions to the discipline cover a range of issues, including medicine, the family, religion, law, the economy, race relations, and politics—to name but a few. This volume brings together leading scholars working in the field of "Parsonian Studies" to explore the background of Parsons’s work, the content of his oeuvre, and his subsequent influence. Thematically organized, it covers Parsons...
