This includes secondary analysis of my own earlier research on the psychosocial ramifications of the loss of stable work, changing worker-gendered identities, disrupted affect, community engagement and historical memory within a global context of insecure labour (Walkerdine and Jimenez, 2012). Y1 - 2024 ER - TY - GEN A1 - Jiang, Shuhan T1 - A Study of the Interpersonal Ethic in Graham Swift’s Literary Works, Doctoral dissertation, World Literature, Northeast Normal University, Changchun, Jilin, China 2022 [application of Fromm's theories to art]. N2 - [Chinese abstract not available] Graham Colin Swift is regarded as one of the most outstanding writers in Britain. As the winner of Booker Prize in 1996, his works are based on the national history, social culture and natural geography of England, and he applies multiple narrative strategies which combine characterization, social background and historical events skillfully. In each of his literary works, Swift concentrates on describing and clarifying the ethical dilemma which is confronted by the protagonist who is interwoven in historical, political, cultural and economic factors. Swift has been focusing on the social problems in his literary creation for more than 40 years, and he has realized that the problems in interpersonal ethics are one of the main reasons for the intensification of social conflicts in England. Through the research, we can conclude that family, neighbor and gender constitute three levels of the ethical conflicts in Swift’s fictions. Through keen observation, Swift discerns the crux of the interpersonal ethics crisis in western society nowadays, which is the absence of love. According to the theory of Erich Fromm’s humanistic philosophy, Feuerbach’s humanistic thought, and Marx’s and Engels’ discourses on family, this thesis lucubrates on the interpersonal ethics in Swift’s literary works, and focuses on exploring and explaining the interpersonal ethical view which represents in his fictions. In addition to the Introduction, this thesis is composed of four chapters. The first chapter focuses on The Sweet-Shop Owner and Tomorrow, which reveals the abnormal ethical images of British families, such as generation gap, patriarchy, sibling mutilations and domestic violence. The second chapter focuses on Shuttlecock and Here We Are, which uncovers the strange ethical phenomena of neighbors in four aspects, such as exploited and betrayal friendship, tense teacher-student relationship, unjust superior-subordinate relationship and ruthless doctor-patient relationship. The third chapter focuses on >Waterland< and >Wish You Were Here<, which exposes the ethical chaos of the sexual relationship, such as loveless marriage, extramarital affairs, incest and commercial sex. The fourth chapter focuses on >The Light of Day< and [the short story] >Gabor<, which represents the writer’s reflection on interpersonal relationships and the exploration of achieving ethical harmony. Swift concerns himself with interpersonal ethics and sets >love thought< in all his fictions, even though consumerism has been long widespread and interpersonal relations are cold and alienated. Swift’s works reflect the universality of ethical issues which exist between families, neighbors and genders. Generation gap and patriarchy are common in the family. Sibling estranged and harmed mutually, and domestic violence also happen frequently. The neighbor relations in the commodity society are composed by betrayal and treachery friendship, unfair and injustice superior-subordinate relationship, non-communicated tea¬cher-student relationship and ruthless doctor-patient relationship. There are discordant couples in typical loveless marriages in capitalist society, not only immoral extramarital affair, but also tragedy of incest that breaks through ethical taboos. With the emergence of liberal feminism and sexual liberation movement, female’s flesh is commercialized for trading under the influence of consumerism. All the ethical problems which make people puzzled are caused by the absence and alienation of >love<. Except demonstrating the >loveless< interpersonal relationships, several positive models are present in Swift’s fictions, too. At the same time, Swift makes moral reflection on the problem of interpersonal relationship, and actively explores the feasibility of reconstructing benign interpersonal relationship in his works. Interpersonal ethical thought is the creation core of Graham Swift’s literary works. As a contemporary British writer, he undertakes the moral responsibility and historical mission. He not only exposes the interpersonal ethical problems, but also presents the diversified ethical choice, and his ultimate purpose is to explore how love constructs a harmonious interpersonal ethical order.

N2 - [Chinese abstract not available] Jerome David Salinger(1919–2010)is a highly influential writer in post-World War II America, and his writings and philosophies greatly influenced American literature and society. Published in 1953, >Nine Stories< is Salinger’s sole compilation of short stories. Each story was released around the same time as >The Catcher in the Rye<, showcasing Salinger’s peak of creativity. In >Nine Stories<, Salinger portrays the post-World War II loneliness experienced by individuals, which reflects Salinger’s contemplation on the human psyche, giving >Nine Stories< a distinctive significance. However, a limited amount of research has been done by domestic scholars on >Nine Stories<. Most concentrate on analyzing one specific story rather than conducting comprehensive studies. Current research primarily centers on character alienation and mental trauma, with a minimal exploration of the theme of loneliness among the protagonists. This gap leaves room for further examination in this thesis. This thesis primarily examines the writing of loneliness depicted in >Nine Stories< in the following three aspects through the lens of Fromm and Rollo May’s loneliness theory, Fromm’s theory of love, and Zen Buddhism. Through his portrayal of the pervasive loneliness, Salinger explores how the characters in the stories confront loneliness and ultimately come to terms with and embrace it. The first chapter delves into the ubiquity of loneliness. Firstly, some characters face barriers in connecting with others due to a lack of empathy, resulting in >mirror contact< and silence in communication, ultimately leading to a sense of mental loneliness. Secondly, the sour love, alienated kinship, and insincere friendship also contribute to emotional loneliness among the characters. Lastly, feelings of >existential loneliness< arise from a lack of personal security, blurred identities, and a perception of life’s nothingness. Through exploring the roots and manifestations of loneliness, this chapter posits that loneliness permeates the stories. The second chapter examines the protagonists’ struggle with loneliness through self-abandonment. Initially, they adopt a >formulaic< and >radar-type< persona to assimilate themselves to combat loneliness. Subse¬quently, they confront loneliness by distorting themselves by forming masochistic dependencies on others and achieving sadistic associations with others. Ultimately, they dissolve their preoccupation with loneliness through self-paralysis and self-destruction, attempting to fight loneliness in this way. The chapter concludes that sacrificing one’s identity to combat loneliness ultimately leads to increased misery and loneliness, suggesting that this approach is short-lived and ineffective. In the third chapter, unlike some protagonists, who fight loneliness with >self-abandonment<, others coexist with loneliness through sincere love and self-improvement. On the one hand, people correctly understand loneliness by caring for and understanding each other, diluting the feeling of loneliness through mutual respect and tolerance, and giving themselves and others the courage to accept loneliness through the power of love and sincerity. On the other hand, people coexist with loneliness by accepting their true selves and contemplating loneliness from a Zen perspective. By arguing that coexistence with loneliness ends in empowering, this chapter argues that embracing love and accepting one’s true self can reconcile with loneliness and no longer be distracted by loneliness. Through the analysis of the preceding chapters, this thesis concludes that Salinger’s portrayal of loneliness in >Nine Stories< vividly illustrates the predicament of the characters and their ongoing struggle against loneliness. Furthermore, it suggests that the most effective approach to overcoming loneliness is embracing and coming to terms with it through genuine love. >Nine Stories< mirrors Salinger’s personal experiences with loneliness and serves as a commentary on the spiritual crisis in reality. It urges readers to address their loneliness constructively. Salinger’s contemplation on loneliness imbues >Nine Stories< with depth and offers potential solutions for those grappling with loneliness.

N2 - [Chinese abstract not available] John Updike (1932–2009) one of the most famous contemporary American realist writers, was born in Pennsylvania, USA, and graduated from Harvard University. Updike began his writing career in 1958. During his writing career, Updike was awarded two Pulitzer Prizes and two O. Henry Prizes, and he achie¬ved outstanding accomplishments in the field of literary creation. Updike’s literary works are concerned with the fate of people from all classes, especially the ordinary people. Updike believes that the situation of the ordinary people is a reflection of social reality. >The Centaur< is a novel with an ordinary individual as the protagonist. >The Centaur< is Updike’s third work. It was published in 1963 and won the American National Book Award. The novel mainly portrays the protagonist George Caldwell’s process of struggling with life’s dilemma. In The Centaur, Caldwell faces a dilemma of both material and spirit. However, Caldwell does not despair but works hard to change himself, and successfully overcomes alienation. The title of the novel >The Centaur< is a tribute to Caldwell by Updike. Updike uses the story that Centaur sacrifices himself in Greek mythology as a metaphor, and regards the ordinary people who overcome difficulties in modern society as heroes. This thesis is divided into five parts. The introduction provides an overview of John Updike’s life, domestic and foreign research status of >The Centaur< and the theory of alienation. Chapter one interprets the alienation behavior of the protagonist Caldwell in the novel >The Centaur<. Facing the reality that he is powerless to change, Caldwell suppresses his pain, which leads him to a somatization disorder and also causes him to escape reality through fantasy. In addition, Caldwell is anxious about his value as a father and as a husband. As a teacher, Caldwell is negative to students, indifferent to colleagues and he is fearful of the principal’s authority. He is unable to handle difficult situations that arise at work. Chapter two elaborates the causes of Caldwell’s alienation based on Fromm’s alienation theory. The Caldwell’s self-alienation is embodied by his sense of powerlessness, which comes from his loss of identity. In the family relationship, Caldwell’s alienation is manifested as his anxieties about his own value resulting from his negligence of productive love. In social relations, Caldwell’s alienation is the embodied by his loss of rationality, which is caused by his confusion about the frame of devotion and orientation. Chapter three explains Caldwell’s methods to overcome alienation. In the process of struggling against alienation, Caldwell gradually discovers his own strength and learns to accept support of others. By assuming social responsibility and facing reality, he reconstructs a sense of identity. By changing his way of interacting with others, Caldwell no longer feels anxious about materialistic values. He finds his own worth and fills the emptiness within himself. Finally, this thesis draws a conclusion that Caldwell successfully overcomes alienation by reconstructing his identity cognition, improving his relationship with others and finding the meaning of existence. Caldwell’s struggles against alienation are of reference significance to modern people’s struggle against alienation. By establishing the values and actively using rational and productive love, modern people can effectively overcome alienation.

N2 - Biofilija se definira kao ljubav prema prirodi i svemu što je živo, a upravo djeca imaju urođenu sklonost istraživanja i otkrivanja prirode. Međutim, zbog suvremenog načina života, djeca provode sve manje vremena u prirodi. U radu je prikazana usporedba urbanih i ruralnih područja na temelju povezanosti djece s prirodom. Odnos prema prirodi i životinjama (koje su dio prirode) mijenja se s obzirom na dob djeteta jer prilikom sazrijevanja i odrastanja djeca postaju svjesnija važnosti očuvanja prirode i brige za životinje. Boravak u prirodi poboljšava dječji razvoj te utječe na razvoj prirodne inteligencije. Nadalje, u radu je istraženo koliko su djeca povezana s prirodom te se ta povezanost uspoređivala u ruralnom (OŠ Ivana Perkovca u Šenkovcu) i urbanom području (OŠ Pavleka Miškine). Istraživanje je provedeno na uzorku od 65 učenika trećih i četvrtih razreda obiju škola. Prema rezultatima se može zaključiti kako učenici iz ruralnog područja pokazuju veću povezanost s prirodom od učenika iz urbanog područja. Budući da se ova tema u Republici Hrvatskoj nije pretjerano istraživala, ovi rezultati mogu poslužiti kao temelj za daljnja istraživanja na značajno većem broju ispitanika. N2 - Biophilia is defined as the love for nature and all living things. Although children in particular have an innate inclination for exploring and discovering nature, they are limited by various influences. That’s why children in the modern era are spending less and less time in nature. The paper presents a comparison of urban and rural areas regarding the connection of children with nature. The attitude towards nature and animals as part of nature changes according to a child's age; as children mature and grow, they become more aware of the importance of nature and care for animals. Spending time in nature enhances child's development and influences the development of natural intelligence. Furthermore, the paper explores the extent to which children are connected with nature and compares this connection with respect to rural (Ivan Perkovec Elementary School in Šenkovec) and urban areas (Pavleka Miškina Elementary School). The research was conducted on a sample of 65 students from the third and fourth grades of both schools. According to the results, students from the rural area show a stronger connection with nature compared to students from the urban area. These results can serve as an example for further studies with a significantly larger number of participants, considering that this topic has not been extensively researched in the Republic of Croatia.

N2 - This study aims to examine the relationship between existential anxiety and religiosity. Employing a relational survey model, the research follows a quantitative and cross- sectional design. The sample consists of 467 individuals aged 15-65+, selected through random sampling. Data were collected using the Personal Information Form, the Ok-Religious Attitude and the Existential Anxiety Scales, and analyzed with SPSS 28.0. Significant differences in total existential anxiety, its subdimensions meaninglessness, eath, loneliness, and freedom anxiety, and religious attitude scores were found based on demographic variables. Correlation analysis revealed a significant negative relationship between religious attitude and existential anxiety. According to regression analysis, death anxiety, loneliness anxiety, and meaninglessness anxiety significantly predicted religiosity levels negatively, whereas freedom anxiety was not a significant predictor. The study found that 25.7% of the variance in religious attitude scores could be explained by existential anxiety dimensions, with the strongest predictors being meaninglessness anxiety, loneliness anxiety, and death anxiety.

N2 - Although tension reduction is a key principle in drive theory, there are clear dynamic aspects of libido expression aimed at increased tension levels. In a paradigmatic shift from the Freudian conflict model, tension reduction and tension enhancement dynamics are re-conceptualized as valences toward the processes of tension reduction and tension enhancement, rather than toward the respective states of reduced tension or enhanced tension. We posit a unitary direction-independent foundational id drive toward tension level change which incorporates tension reduction and enhancement. As the primary drive circumscribed to manipulations of id tension level, the dynamics of Delta are distinguished from those of Eros and Thanatos whose purviews are in the domain of drive purpose/function (or evolutionary design) and also differentiated from the subjective phenomenological experience of drive expression which varies among people. Theoretical and clinical issues in sexuality and aggression are critically analyzed as entailing libidinal elements of tension enhancement and reduction. Key points are annotated with illustrative clinical vignettes. The intersections between Delta dynamics, ego psychology, and object relations are explored. Possible elaborations of sub-drive development entailing functional autonomy are outlined. Y1 - 2025 ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Jones, David W.

Το άρθρο προτείνει ότι η ενασχόληση με >ψυχοκοινωνικές οπτικές< που αναγνωρίζουν τον άρρηκτο δεσμό μεταξύ της ψυχικής και της κοινωνικής σφαίρας, μπορεί να προσφέρει αυτήν την πιο λεπτή κατανόηση της ανθρώπινης εμπειρίας. Το άρθρο εξετάζει την ανάπτυξη της ψυχοκοινωνικής σκέψης, τονίζοντας την επίδραση της πρακτικής, ιδιαίτερα της ψυχιατρικής και της ψυχανάλυσης, στη διαμόρφωση αυτής της οπτικής. Αντλώντας από διάφορους κλάδους, διερευνά μεθόδους έρευνας σχετικές με τις ψυχοκοινωνικές σπουδές, συμπεριλαμβανομένων των ψυχοκοινωνικών συνεντεύξεων, των μεθόδων παρατήρησης, των κοινωνικών ονείρων και τον ιστορικών μεθόδων. Το άρθρο καταλήγει υποστηρίζοντας μια κριτική και λεπτή προσέγγιση για την κατανόηση της ανθρώπινης εμπειρίας, η οποία αναγνωρίζει τη βαθιά επιρροή του >κοινωνικού ασυνείδητου< στην ατομική και συλλογική ζωή.

Nadalje, uzimajući teorijske okvire Ervinga Goffmana i Ericha Fromma, dobiva se detaljniji uvid u suvremene ljubavne veze, a sintezom njihovih teorija postavljanja se daljni okvir za proučavanje upravljanje impresijama u ljubavnim odnosima. N2 - The aim of this paper is to theoretically analyze love relationships as a form of social relations through Erving Goffman’s theory of dramaturgy and Erich Fromm’s critical theory. Modern love relationships are based on pre-socially set rules and norms that affect an individual's understanding of what love is and how to achieve it. The paper looks at the historical research of the concept of love, points out the influence of society on the individual, especially in the context of understanding sexuality and in determining the desirable characteristics of a partner. Furthermore, taking the theoretical frameworks of Erving Goffman and Erich Fromm provides a more detailed insight into contemporary love relationships, and the synthesis of their setting theories provides a further framework for studying impression management in love relationships.

N2 - [Chinese abstract not available] Erich Fromm is a famous 20th century humanist and psychoanalyst. He creatively established the humanis¬tic psychoanalysis. Fromm is deeply concerned about the alienated people in the real world, continually focusing on their mental health issues. In addition, he is committed to exploring approaches to help modern people escape from the predicament of survival, and devoting his life to the cause of human liberation. This thesis mainly discusses Fromm’s thought of sound personality, sorts out and summarizes the content of sound personality thought scattered in Fromm’s works, forms a systematic study. The thesis combines the requirements of China in the new era for the sound development of young people’s personality to explore the contemporary value of Fromm’s thought. This research mainly consists of four chapters. The first chapter is the introduction, which mainly discusses the background and significance of studying Fromm’s thought of sound personality. The second chapter is the theoretical source of Fromm’s sound personality thought, mainly introducing the background, theoretical origins, and the theoretical basis of the thought. The third chapter is the basic content of Fromm’s thought of healthy personality, mainly introducing the definition, characteristics and path of healthy personality. The third chapter is the basic content of Fromm’s sound personality thought, narrating from four aspects: the definition, characteristics, training path and the evaluation of the thought. The fourth chapter is the en¬lightenment of Fromm’s sound personality thought to the cultivation of healthy personality of young people in the new era. In this chapter, the author summarizes and discusses the characteristics of sound perso¬nality of young people in the new era from General Secretary Xi Jinping’s lecture to young people, and points out the rationality of studying Fromm’s sound personality thought in the new era. Combining with the characteristics of sound personality discussed above, the author argues that the culti¬vation of healthy personality in the new era requires the pursuit of positive freedom, the cultivation of productive oriented personality, the pursuit of a life-style of paying attention to survival, and the cultivation of the ability of creative love. Although Fromm’s thought of sound personality is a product of the capitalist society in the 20th century, it has theoretical significance and practical value for cultivating healthy youth, forming a positive social mentality and building a socialist harmonious society in China in the new era.

N2 - [Chinese abstract not available] Love plays an important role in our daily lives, and an in-depth study of this theme can help us strengthen the bonds between people and enhance the civilization of society. As one of the representative figures of Western Marxism, Fromm believes that we should understand love from a humanitarian tradition. Fromm lived in a capitalist society with rapidly expanding material wealth. Accompanied by two world wars and an economic crisis, Fromm believes that people are in a state of alienated existence, in which man regards material possessions as the whole of his life and is alienated from himself, his fellow man, and nature. Through the observation and analysis of the current social situation, Fromm thinks about the alienation of human existence in three dimensions: the alienation of freedom, the alienation of love, and the alienation of existence. Based on Marx’s reflection on the human beings and Freud’s psychoanalytic approach, Fromm formed his theory about humanitarian love. Fromm believed that human beings have a fundamental spiritual need to long for union with others and thus escape loneliness and anxiety. It is precisely because modern Western society is unable to solve this need that people choose to escape from it in ways such as mechanized convergence and consumerism. As a kind of union based on maintaining their own independence, love can solve this spiritual need of human beings, so that people can get rid of the survival of the alienation of the predicament, to realize the liberation of human beings. In Fromm’s view, the essence of love is a dynamic creative activity, which includes both giving and creating. In addition to this, love also includes such essential elements as responsibility and respect. Fromm’s humanitarian love clarifies the true meaning of love, enabling people to reflect on the misconceptions of love and their own circumstances, so as to obtain a free and harmonious state of existence. Despite the limitations of this theory, it still has a certain reference value and usefulness for today’s world. [Translation: www.cnki.net, 1/2025] Y1 - 2024 ER -
