Nietzsche and Psychotherapy

By: Manu Bazzano

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Drawing on over a century of international Nietzschean scholarship, this groundbreaking book discusses some of the unexplored psychological reaches of Nietzsche’s thought, as well as their implications for psychotherapeutic practice. Nietzsche’s philosophy anticipated some of the most innovative cultural movements of the last century, from expressionism and surrealism to psychoanalysis, humanistic psychology and phenomenology. But his work on psychology often remains discarded, despite its many insights. Addressing this oversight, and in an age of managerialism and evidence-based practice, this book helps to redefine psychotherapy as an experiment that explores the limits and intricacies of human experience. It builds the foundations for a differentialist psychology: a life-affirming project that can deal squarely with the challenges, joys and sorrows of being human. Nietzsche and Psychotherapy will be of great interest to researchers interested in the relationship between psychotherapy and philosophy, Nietzschean scholars, as well as to clinicians grappling with the challenges of working in the so-called "post-truth" age.

Zen and Therapy

Heretical Perspectives

By: Manu Bazzano

Zen and Therapy brings together aspects of the Buddhist tradition, contemporary western therapy and western philosophy. By combining insightful anecdotes from the Zen tradition with clinical studies, discussions of current psychotherapy theory and forays into art, film, literature and philosophy, Manu Bazzano integrates Zen Buddhist practice with psychotherapy and psychology. This book successfully expands the existing dialogue on the integration of Buddhism, psychology and philosophy, highlighting areas that have been neglected and bypassed. It explores a third way between the two dominant modalities, the religious and the secular, a positively ambivalent stance rooted in embodied practice, and the cultivation of compassion and active perplexity. It presents a life-affirming view: the wonder, beauty and complexity of being human. Intended for both experienced practitioners and beginners in the fields of psychotherapy and philosophy, Zen and Therapy provides an enlightening and engaging exploration of a previously underexplored area.

Subversion and Desire

Pathways to Transindividuation

By: Manu Bazzano

This book presents the importance of subversion in psychotherapy and revaluates the positive role of desire as an integrating force in the individual and collective psyche. The text provides a solid philosophical frame which helps to expand the scope of contemporary psychotherapy at a time when it is being curtailed by a reductionist neoliberal zeitgeist. The latter emphasizes cognition over motivation, behaviour over emotion, consciousness over the unconscious, the self over the organism, and tends to reframe psychotherapeutic practice as a reprogramming of individuals. In response, this book outlines concerted acts of "soft subversion" which can undermine the status quo and open new possibilities of individual and collective transformation. The author also retraces and reassesses some of the more inspiringly subversive legacies in psychoanalysis, with a view to sketching a life-affirming psychology wedded to broadminded political engagement. Covering psychotherapy, politics, art and literature, and social and cultural theory, this book will appeal to anyone interested in understanding how psychotherapy and philosophy can be more radical and subversive endeavours.

Il libro delle nuvole

By: Massimo Barbaro,Manu Bazzano

Chi è il filosofo, e chi è il poeta? Questo libro, nel suo compiersi, si è svelato via via per quello che era: una mistificazione, un anonimato palese e spudorato, un espediente per scendere sempre più a fondo nell'indicibile. Io non sono io, tu non sei tu, io non sono tu, tu non sei me. Eppure. La nostra vita è sempre quella degli altri. Ne siamo fatti. Gli altri ci vivono. * È possibile l'amicizia fra due uomini? Nonostante l'ingenuo ottimismo di molta psicologia contemporanea, la dimensione dell'Io e del Tu è un incidente, un'eccezione. Non è possibile risiedere in tale dimensione ma tutt'al più riceverne rare visitazioni, che sole ci permettono di autodefinirci umani.

Spectre of the Stranger

Towards a Phenomenology of Hospitality

By: Manu Bazzano

Retraces the origins of collective forms of malaise such as fanatical patriotism and xenophobia, both legacies of monotheism - the cult of an exclusivist deity. This title looks at the notions of covenant, territory, kinship and nation, and formulates the view of nation-state as expansion of the ego (Buber) and as imagined community.
