Head Over Heels
Candid, first-hand accounts of couples who stay together despite highly emotional gender issues. Head Over Heels gives voice to thirty ordinary women who live extraordinary lives as partners to crossdressers, transgenderists, and male-to-female transsexuals. These unique women discuss, with honesty and great candor, how they first learned of their partners’ gender issues, how they’ve coped with the emotions that followed, how they’ve dealt with concerns about privacy/secrecy, and how they’ve handled disclosure to children, friends, and family members. Far from a collection of “happily ever after” stories, these narratives are filled with pain, courage, curiosity, and joy as each ...
Gender Hurts
It is only recently that transgenderism has been accepted as a disorder for which treatment is available. In the 1990s, a political movement of transgender activism coalesced to campaign for transgender rights. Considerable social, political and legal changes are occurring in response and there is increasing acceptance by governments and many other organisations and actors of the legitimacy of these rights. This provocative and controversial book explores the consequences of these changes and offers a feminist perspective on the ideology and practice of transgenderism, which the author sees as harmful. It explores the effects of transgenderism on the lesbian and gay community, the partners o...
Gerontology in Theological Education
Gerontology in Theological Education provides a wealth of useful information to those interested in planning the introduction or improvement of gerontological materials in the curriculum of theological schools. The need for including aging in the professional education of the clergy is clear, yet it is a relatively unmet need. In response to this general lack of gerontological training in theological education, this landmark volume documents a model project planned and implemented at the Gerontology Center at Georgia State University and provides suggestions for its use elsewhere. Administrators and faculty will find here the results of a national study of gerontology in theological education. Detailed descriptions of eight innovative programs nationwide and an extensive bibliography will also provide guidance for administrators and faculty interested in locating materials that relate to their gerontological concerns
Gerontology in Theological Education
Gerontology in Theological Education: Local Program Development provides a source book for administrators and faculty in theological schools who are concerned about the increasing number of older persons in congregations and communities. Theoretical, theological, and practical chapters offer guidance to those interested in adventuring into aging for the first time or in revising present commitments.
Auto-da-fé
A sketchbook memoir. Four self-published zines, collaged from five books, are collected herein. A fifth has been woken from its coma and put to rest for good. An introduction in words refracts into fragmented comics panels. Three appendices burst with decoded context. Finally, a trio of addenda tingle at the end like distressed extremities. 2001-2010, the decade of my thirties, singe these pages with their scattered ashes.
Psychoanalysis and Narrative
Psychoanalysis and Narrative analyzes narrative in literary fiction, film, and autobiography through different psychoanalytic lenses including gender and socio-cultural perspectives. This book aims to demonstrate how fictionists and film makers have intuitively developed – through their own creativity – many of the psychoanalytic discoveries about the human mind. Subverting the usual direction of “applied psychoanalysis,” the book goes from creativity to psychoanalysis, and focuses on four internationally known Argentine writers: Jorge Luis Borges, Julio Cortázar, Manuel Puig, and Luisa Valenzuela; two Argentine women filmmakers, Lucrecia Martel and Lucía Puenzo; and French essayist and writer Serge Doubrovsky. This volume will be of interest to students and academics interested in autobiography and autofiction.
