I argue for its inclusion in the curriculum but, more specifically, for its use as part of intervention programmes that allow young people to discuss a range of emotional and mental health difficulties in a safe space. Chapter One introduces the central research questions and methodology. Chapter Two provides an overview of the relationship between >Realism< and >realistic fiction< so that the work is situated within Literary Studies. Acknowledging that ‘reality’ in fiction can only be represented within the conventions of narrative structure, the thesis provides a definition of YA realism: it is an artistic representation of a variety of adolescent experiences that could occur in the real world, a fictionalisation of the feasible. Because certain YA material is treated in ‘realist’ mode, controversies often erupt so some of those issues will be foregrounded here. An overview of the evidence that reading can have a positive impact on well-being is provided in Chapter Three and a discussion about hope and why storytelling matters should help to explain why: YA realism can be a remedy. In Chapter Four, I argue that endings of these books are important and leave the readers of a realm of hope. An analysis of these novels from this standpoint could provide the narrative solution to concerns about certain aspects of YA realism and allay any fears that the books are inappropriate. The chapter offers an analysis of: Melvin Burgess’s >Junk< (1996); Jay Asher’s >Thirteen Reasons Why< (2007); Stephen Chbosky’s >The Perks of Being a Wallflower< (1999) and Angie Thomas’s >The Hate You Give< (2017). Each section explores the authors’ depiction of hope and positivity in the context of the adolescent experiences of sexuality, prejudice, identity, bullying, rejection, suicide, rape and abuse. The final chapter reflects on the writing of my own YA novel, Asterix Clementine, as well as the well-being workshops that I currently deliver to young adults in schools in Wales.

[doi.org/10.4324/9781003014331-7] N2 - According to Erich Fromm, sex has a role in love because it involves knowledge that surpasses linguistic communication. He explicitly connects this search with a form of mysticism. I acknowledge this turn to mysticism as one strand in thinking about the significance of expressive behaviour; however, the author seeks to show that Fromm’s insight can be captured in terms ultimately less mysterious than the appeal to the mystical. In place of the argument derived from Fromm, and which the author calls Mysticism about Sexual Relations, an alternative is proposed by the author that he calls Romanticism about Sexual Relations: it sees sexual behaviour as a set of expressive gestures symbolising the salient features of a situation on the model of a Romantic view of artworks. Y1 - 2022 ER - TY - GEN A1 - Burston, Daniel A1 - Mills, Jon T1 - Critical Theory and Psychoanalysis. From the Frankfurt School to Contemporary Critique, London and New York (Routledge) 2022 N2 - Critical Theory has traditionally been interested in engaging classical psychoanalysis rather than addressing postclassical thought. For the first time, this volume brings Critical Theory into proper dialogue with modern developments in the psychoanalytic movement and covers a broad range of topics in contemporary society that revisit the Frankfurt School and its contributions to psychoanalytic social critique. Theoretical, clinical, and applied investigations in social pathology are explored in relation to new directions in critical cultural discourse from a variety of psychoanalytic perspectives. In this volume, internationally acclaimed social political theorists, philosophers, psychoanalysts, cultural critics, and scholars of humanities examine contemporary issues in social critique that address a myriad of topics.

[Online ISSN 1445-7377] [doi.org/10.1080/20797222.2022.2109331] N2 - This article provides an account of the cultural changes induced by the pandemic, and draws on the tradition of critical theory (especially the work of Horkheimer and Adorno, and Fromm) and the work of Bernard Stiegler to critically assess their impact. It is argued that the rise of online forms of consumption based around streaming have had a deleterious impact on the critical faculties of the individual, and argues that the practice of walking – as proposed by Frederic Gros – could potentially provide a remedy to the problems caused by the increase of uncritical cultural consumption. In this respect, it provides an original account of the relevance of both the tradition of critical theory and the work of Stiegler to the pandemic, together with providing a discussion around the act of walking as an active measure that one can implement in one’s life to counteract and (hopefully) overcome the detrimental effects that the commodification of leisure time has fostered during the pandemic.

[Online ISSN 1469-9656] [doi.org/10.1017/S1053837221000493] N2 - Tibor Scitovsky’s >The Joyless Economy< (1976) is now regarded as a landmark publication in the combined fields of economics and psychology, with standard accounts of Scitovsky’s ideas emphasizing the influence of 1960s motivational psychology literature. While this encounter is all-important, Scitovsky’s ideas must at the same time be read in the context of the evolution of his critique of twentieth-century mass society. The present paper presents that critique and demonstrates its fundamental importance for Scitovsky’s diagnosis of an economy he termed >joyless<. Drawing upon his >Memoirs<, we show how Scitovsky’s ideas were initially shaped by the culture/aesthetics of his early years in Budapest, followed by his experiences of rising totalitarianism in interwar Europe, and further affected by his move to the consumption society of postwar America. The way he engaged with the writings of influential contemporary cultural commentators, including André Gide, Erich Fromm, Bertrand de Jouvenel, Lewis Mumford, and Bernard Rudofsky, was incisive. Close scrutiny also reveals resonances between Scitovsky’s cultural concerns and those of some of the Bloomsbury Group.

[Online ISSN 2319-7064] [ijsr.net/getabstract.php?paperid=SR22924100124] N2 - The concept of Humanization was not born by itself. Problems that often occur in society, especially in today's modern era, highlight the dehumanization side. The emergence of information technologies, artificial intelligence, modern machines, and automation threatens human survival as a resource. Not to mention the mass media, advertisements, adsense on websites, online shops bring up a new culture in the realm of public consumption, especially for luxury goods. Moreover, society has a limited economic level, while the existence of these various technologies does not see the social levels in society anymore. The problem in this society is an example of dehumanization, namely the existence of humans who are isolated from themselves because their lives as humans have been made to depend on technology, so they cannot distinguish between their own wants and needs. Therefore, humanization is a solution to fight dehumanization. The methodology used in writing this paper uses an analytical approach to documentation approach and critical analysis according to Erich Fromm's humanist theory. Efforts and inculcation of Pancasila values in the process of humanization of digital literacy are the responsibility of digital media providers and digital media users. The collaboration between the two is the spearhead that is interrelated in growing awareness of digital literacy, especially in humanizing humans in harmony with the morals of Pancasila. Humanization of digital literacy is a way to humanize through learning about digital literacy that is good and right on social networks and cyberspace. By learning true digital literacy, people are enabled to have life skills that can help society. Therefore, the humanization of digital literacy is not only beneficial personally but also for the lives of social communities.
