N2 - 伊恩•麦克尤恩是英国当代最著名的作家之一。他的作品以揭露社会现实和人类的伦理困境 而 著 称 并 受 到 高 度 重 视。其于2010年发表的《追日》以全球变暖为背景, 吸引了来自世界各地读者的关注。麦克尤恩在这部作品中将全球关注的气候变化问题与人们的道德困境相结合, 反映了当代社会存在的生态和人文危机。以往对《追日》的研究主要集中在生态主义和伦理学方面。相比之下, 人们对这部小说异化主题的研究 则显得不够充分。本文以弗洛姆和马尔库塞的相关异化理论为基础来阐述小说中的异化主题。文章主要 从三个方 面 来 分析小说中 的异化主题:人的自我异化, 人与人关系的异化和人与自然关系的异化。本论文由三部分组成。第一章主要概括并介绍了作者伊恩麦克尤恩及其作品、《追日》的文献综述、异化理论及中心论点、研究方法和研究意义。正文分为四章包括第二章、第三章、第四章和第五章。第二章分析了人的自我异化主要表现为情感麻木和信仰的缺失。第三章阐释小说中人 与 人关系的异化主要 体现在两个方面:不和谐的家庭关系和扭曲的工作关系。第四章通过人对科技的过度依赖和对自然环境的破坏 两 方 面阐述了人与自然关系的异化。第五章总结了当代人的过度贪婪, 父权制社会的根深蒂固和人类中心主义的盛行是导致《追日》中异化问题的主要原因。第六章为结论。本论文最后得出结论, 异化这一主题贯穿于整部小说。当今社会, 人们不断增加的贪欲使其成为一个失去情感和信仰的物质化存在。异化了的人际关系和人与自然的关系也反映了父权主义和人类中心主义的根深蒂固。本文同时也表达了对人们生活现状的关注并呼吁人类对自己的行为进行深刻的反思。 N2 - Ian McEwan is one of the most distinguished writers in contemporary British literature. His works are known and highly valued for exposing social realities and ethical dilemma of men. Published in 2010, Solar set in the global warming attracts the attention of readers around the world. McEwan in Solar combines the global concern of climate change with moral issues, revealing both ecological and humanistic crisis in today’s society. Previous studies on Solar mostly apply the perspectives and theories of ecologism and ethics. By contrast, studies on the theme of alienation in this novel appear insufficient. This thesis deals with the theme of alienation in Solar based on Fromm and Marcuse’s alienation theories. It discusses and analyses the topic from three aspects: alienation between man and himself, alienation between man and man and alienation between man and nature. This thesis consists of three parts. Chapter One gives an introduction to Ian McEwan and his works, sorts out literature review of Solar, generalizes the alienation theory and the argument, research methods and significance of the study. The main body of the thesis is made up of four chapters including Chapter Two, Chapter Three, Chapter Four and Chapter Five.– Chapter Two analyzes man’s self-alienation which manifests in the emotional numbness and loss of faith.– Chapter Three elaborates alienation in personal relationships from two aspects: disharmonious family relationship and distorted working relationship.– Chapter Four expounds alienation between man and nature including human’s over-reliance on science and technology and destruction of the environment. Chapter Five summarizes that excessive greed of modern man, dominance of patriarchalism and prevalence of anthropocentrism are the main causes of alienation in Solar.– Chapter Six is the conclusion. This thesis draws the conclusion that the theme of alienation runs through the whole novel. Nowadays, the increasing greed has made man a materialized existence that loses emotion and faith. The alienated personal relationships and relationship between man and nature reveal the entrenched patriarchy and anthropocentrism. This thesis also shows its concern for men’s current living conditions and calls for deep reflection of men’s behaviors.

[Online ISSN 1527-1919] [doi.org/10.1215/00182702-7368884] N2 - This paper suggests that in the development of his critique of American consumer society, culminating in >The Joyless Economy< (1976), Tibor Scitovsky owed a significant intellectual debt to Erich Fromm. The latter’s influence can be detected in Scitovsky’s work from the 1950s, but emerges most clearly in the 1976 book. There, Scitovsky presents in an economic context the essential elements of Fromm’s psychosocial critique of the United States, a Puritan-type culture that encourages moneymaking but not the cultivation of leisure; a mass-production economy that provides comfort but also alienation; and an educational system that emphasizes technical knowledge over the liberal arts. By considering both their shared formative, intellectual milieu and Fromm’s influence on Scitovsky, the paper casts new light on both the origins and controversial reception of >The Joyless Economy<.

N2 - 易卜生《海达•高布乐》的女主角海达的人生悲剧表面上看是父权制文化以及其高傲倔强、追求诗性生活的性格造成的,但从弗洛姆心理分析维度探测海达令人费解的行为背后深层次的心理动机,可以发现海达的怪异行为源自内心无法排遣的孤独。得不到缓解的孤独产生了一股不可遏制的破坏力,毁灭他人的同时也导致了海达的自我毁灭。海达的人生悲剧体现了易卜生对个人如何对待个体化孤独问题的思考,对为孤独所困的现代人具有重要的启示意义。 N2 - The tragedy of the life of Ibsen's heroine >Hedda Gabler<, Hedda, is ostensibly caused by patriarchal culture and her arrogant and pursuit of poetic life, but from Fromm's psychology By analyzing the deep psychological motivation behind Hedda's puzzling behavior in the analysis dimension, we can find that Hedda's strange behavior originates from loneliness that cannot be dispatched from the heart. The loneliness that cannot be alleviated has an irresistible destructive power, which destroys others and also causes Hedda's self-destruction. Hedda's life tragedy reflects Ibsen's thinking on how individuals treat individualized loneliness. It has important implications for modern people trapped by loneliness.

[Online ISSN 1469-3534] [doi.org/10.1080/03069885.2019.1597016] N2 - This article explores the similarities between humanistic (and existential) psychotherapy, represented here by the ideas of Viktor Frankl, Erich Fromm and Irvin Yalom, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Despite the ongoing dialogue between both therapies during the last decade, regarding both their convergences and divergences, there is a gap in the literature concerning their complementarity in clinical practice. This analysis addresses this gap with the integrative (or pluralistic) clinician in mind, and approximates a theoretical and practical integration anchored upon the trans-theoretical model.

Contemplative practices, such as secular mindfulness meditation, are being increasingly integrated into pedagogical settings to enhance social and emotional learning and well-being and to address stress-induced overwhelm due to increased pressures on the education system and its constituents. The chapters in this book explore the various ways, through the lens of this non-violent relational art of Aikido, that pedagogy is always something being practiced (on the level of psychological, somatic and emotional registers) and thus holding potential for transformation into being more relational, ecological-minded, and reflecting more ‘embodied attunement.’ Positioning education as a practice, one of self-discovery, the author argues that one can approach personal development as engaging in a spiritual process of integrating mind and body towards full presence of being and existence.

[Online ISSN 2365-8185] [doi.org/10.1515/spircare-2018-0054] N2 - Einer verbreiteten These folgend wird von alternativ-spirituellen Akteuren keine Änderung der gesellschaftlichen Verhältnisse angestrebt, wesentlich sei hingegen die Arbeit an der eigenen Identität im Dienst der >Selbstverwirklichung< (vgl. Lasch 1980, List 1988, Bellah et al. 1996). Die Verantwortung für Probleme und deren Lösungen würden dem Einzelnen aufgebürdet und die komplexen Zusammenhänge von (scheinbarer) Selbstbestimmung und internalisierten gesellschaftlichen Ansprüchen blieben verdeckt. Das heutige spirituelle Feld sei marktförmig strukturiert und statt gemeinschaftlicher Beziehungsformen würden flüchtige Begegnungen zwischen unabhängigen Transaktionspartnern vorherrschen (vgl. Hero 2010). Die Individualisierungsthese (vgl. Beck 1986, Beck & Beck-Gernsheim 2002) bildet den theoretischen Bezugsrahmen für diese oftmals als Kritik vorgebrachten Annahmen. Anhand der für die alternative Spiritualität wichtigen Ansätze von Erich Fromm und Marylin Ferguson werden die beschriebenen Ansichten in der vorliegenden Arbeit relativiert. Inwiefern die in den exemplarischen Selbstzeugnissen formulierten Ansprüche tatsächlich eingelöst wurden und auch für das heutige alternativ-spirituelle Milieu handlungsleitend sind, kann Gegenstand weiterführender Forschungen sein. N2 - Following a widespread assumption, alternative-spiritual proponents do not strive for social change, instead >self-realization< through working on one’s identity is essential (cf. Lasch 1980, List 1988, Bellah et al. 1996). Problems and their solutions would be seen as each individual’s own responsibility and complex relations between (apparent) self-determination and internalized social requirements stay concealed. The contemporary spiritual field would be structured on a market basis and contacts between independent partners prevail rather than collaborative relations (cf. Hero 2010). The thesis of individualization (cf. Beck 1986, Beck & Beck-Gernsheim 2002) serves as a theoretical framework for these (critical) assumptions. The view mentioned is put into perspective on the basis of Erich Fromm’s and Marylin Ferguson’s approaches considering both as important figures in the field of alternative spirituality. Further research can aim to clarify whether their pretensions are actually met by the alternative-spiritual milieu of their time and today.

N2 - 《巴比特》是美国著名作家辛克莱•刘易斯的代表作,小说通过对房地产商人巴比特的刻画,形象生动地向大众展示了20年代美国的消费主义文化特征。从消费伦理视角看,小说中人与社会之间是占有式的消费方式,人与人之间是利益扭曲的,自我个性也面临着消失的状态。这对探究美国商业的发展、美国人的文化精神,甚至我国当代社会的消费伦理构建都具有重要价值。 N2 - >Babbitt< is the masterpiece of Sinclair Lewis, a famous American writer. By depicting Babbitt, a real estate businessman, the novel vividly demonstrates the cultural characteristics of American consumerism in the 1920s. From the perspective of consumption ethics, in the novel, the relationship between people and society is possessive consumption, people are distorted in interests, and self-personality is disappearing. It is of great value to explore the development of American business, the cultural spirit of Americans, and even the construction of consumption ethics in our contemporary society.

N2 - 由于市场经济的影响,情感满足方式出现了同质化、市场化、利益化的特点,甚至物欲的满足遮蔽了人们对情感的需要,情感异化了。西方马克思主义者弗洛姆认为>非生产性取向<是产生情感异化的心理机制,而>生产性取向<是解决情感异化的积极方式。可以说,弗洛姆从文化心理角度对情感异化问题进行了分析并给出了解决方案,不但丰富了马克思的异化理论,而且为市场经济视域下情感危机问题的解决提供了新的借鉴。 N2 - The impacts of the commodity economy arouse some emotional problems, such as the homogenization, marketization, profitability, and the materialistic outlooks shadow the need of emotions, thus the emotion is alienated. Fromm, a Western Marxist thinks that nonproductive orientation is the psychological mechanism that leads to emotion alienation, and productive orientation is a positive way to solve emotion alienation. So that the analysis and solution to the problems of emotions from the perspective of cultural psychology not only enriches the theory of Marx’ s emotions, but also provides new references to solve emotion crisis in the contemporary era by Fromm’ s theory.
