El suicidio, estudiado en las ciudades de Santiago y San Felipe, entre 1920 y 1940, es la aproximación metodológica que la autora ha fijado a partir de ciertos conceptos clave. Primero, un tiempo determinado y dos contextos culturales: la ciudad de Santiago, la más desarrollada en el país para la época en estudio; y San Felipe, una ciudad semiurbana, con una estructura económica más bien rural y culturalmente más tradicional que la capital. Quien se mataba era pecador, cobarde e incluso criminal. Como se señala, las consecuencias radicales de “no ser más”, que nos sumergen en la inefabilidad de la existencia personal, es posible pesquisarlas en el entorno y en el propio sujeto suicida que se representó a sí mismo al narrar, de forma escrita u oral, su determinación.

This book brings the reader up to date on the theory and research that have proliferated in the analysis of human emotions. The first section of the book addresses the classification, the neurological underpinnings, and the effect of gender on emotions. The second reviews sociological theories of emotion. Section three covers theory and research on specific emotions: love, envy, empathy, anger, grief, etc. The final section shows how the study of emotions adds new insight into other subfields of sociology: the workplace, health, and more.
The human experience of sex and love has direct impact on our social well-being. By studying sexual philosophy, we allow ourselves, through exposure to a variety of alternative belief systems, to consider new possibilities and options as well as to develop a deeper understanding of the philosophy we already possess. This is the underlying principle behind the readings presented in Philosophy of Sex and Love. Coverage begins with an historical overview of some of the most influential thinkers such as Plato, Aristotle, Erich Fromm, and Alexander Comfort, who have helped shape contemporary discussions in the philosophy of sex and love. Then, ten major topics treated in the philosophy of sex and love are examined in detail. Guaranteed to spark lively debate, Philosophy of Sex and Love challenges readers to sharpen their critical faculties as they explore the reasons supporting each position and to develop a philosophy of sex and love that, when examined fully and rationally, will not only be self-satisfying but will promote the welfare of society as a whole.
