In this set of insightful essays, the concept of the psychological
humanities is defined and explored. A clear rationale is provided
for its necessity in the study and understanding of the individual
and identity in a discipline that is occupied largely by empirical
studies that report aggregated data and its analysis. Contributors
to this volume are leading scholars in theoretical psychology who
believe that psychology must be about persons and their lives. In
these essays, they draw from a variety of disciplines that include
art, literature, life writing, and history to make a case for the
psychological humanities. A final chapter provides a critical
commentary on the value of the psychological humanities. The
chapter argues that psychology must draw on the knowledge and
practices of the humanities, as well as the sciences and social
sciences, in order to attain a greater understanding of personhood.
This book is aimed at upper-level undergraduate and postgraduate
students and scholars of psychology, particularly theoretical
psychology, philosophy of the mind, and those from a humanities
background interested in exploring the concept of the psychological
humanities.
