Concentrative Movement Therapy (CMT) Konzentrative Bewegungstherapie (KBT) An evaluated Body Psychotherapy for psychosomatic and psychich disorders The body is becoming increasingly significant in the concepts of psychotherapy. Body-oriented psychotherapy methods were developed with psychoanalysis, behavioural therapy and systemic theory as their foundation. Concentrative Movement Therapy (CMT; in German Konzentrative Bewegungstherapie, KBT®) is a body-oriented psychotherapy method which has been tried and tested since 1958 for group and individual therapy based on concepts of developmental psychology and depth psychology. There are KBT associations in six European countries which are also members of the European Association for Concentrative Movement Therapy (EAKBT). The EAKBT is a member of the European Association for Psychotherapy (EAP), having the status of a European Wide Accrediting Organisation (EWAO) within the EAP. Concentrative Movement Therapy has a firm place within the treatment offer provided by the health care systems of Germany and Austria, especially in in-patient psychosomatic care.
Jill Price has the first diagnosed case of a memory condition called "hyperthymestic syndrome" -- the continuous, automatic, autobiographical recall of every day of her life since she was fourteen. Give her any date from that year on, and she can almost instantly tell you what day of the week it was, what she did on that day, and any major world event or cultural happening that took place, as long as she heard about it that day. Her memories are like scenes from home movies, constantly playing in her head, backward and forward, through the years; not only does she make no effort to call her memories to mind, she cannot stop them. The Woman Who Can't Forgetis the beautifully written and movin...
This book examines three exhibitions of contemporary art held at the Vienna Künstlerhaus during the period of National Socialist rule and shows how each attempted to culturally erase elements anathema to Nazi ideology: the City, the Jewess and fin-de-siècle Vienna. Each of the exhibits was large scale and ambitious, part of a broader attempt to situate Vienna as the cultural capital of the Reich, and each aimed to reshape cultural memory and rewrite history. Applying illuminating theories on memory studies, collective and public memory, and notions of "memoricide," this is the first book in English to focus on visual culture in the period when Austria was erased as a nation and incorporated into the Third Reich as "Ostmark." The organization, content and publications surrounding these three exhibits are explored in depth and set against the larger political changes and dangerous ideologies they reflect. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, museum studies, cultural history, memory studies, art and politics and Holocaust studies.

Der Beginn des Zweiten Weltkrieges liegt mehr als 50 Jahre zurück. Bis heute haben aber die Fragen, mit denen dieses katastrophale Ereignis alle Deutschen konfrontiert, nicht an Bedeutung und Aktualität verloren. Vielmehr fordert das öffentliche Gedächtnis mit jedem Generationswechsel neue Bilder von diesem Krieg. Im Rückblick auf den Zeitraum seit 1945 läßt sich ein Zyklus von Erinnern, Verstummen und erneutem Erinnern ausmachen, der bereits dreifach durchlaufen worden ist. Insofern ist der Umgang mit dem Thema in den deutschen Medien gleich nach Kriegsende auch für die Gegenwart aufschlußreich. Deutungen und Formen des Gedenkens, die heute praktiziert werden, haben selber inzwisch...
This clear-sighted resource critically examines the status of clinical psychology practice across the diverse regions of the world.
