Winner of the 2018 American Board and Academy of Psychoanalysis
(ABAPsa) prize for best Edited book Temporality has always been a
central preoccupation of modern philosophy, and shame has been a
major theme in contemporary psychoanalysis. To date, however, there
has been little examination of the critical connection between
these core experiences. Although they deeply implicate each other,
no single book has focused upon their profound interrelationship.
Temporality and Shame highlights the many dimensions of that
reality. A core point of this book is that shame can be a teacher,
and a crucial one, in evaluating our ethical and ontological
position in the world. Granting the fact that shame can be toxic
and terrible, we must remember that it is also what can orient us
in the difficult task of reflection and consciousness. Shame
enables us to become more fully present in the world and
authentically engage in the flow of temporality and the richness of
its syncopated dimensionality. Such a deeply honest ethos,
embracing the jarring awareness of shame and the always-shifting
temporalities of memory, can open us to a fuller presence in life.
This is the basic vision of Temporality and Shame. The respective
contributors discuss temporality and shame in relation to clinical
and theoretical aspects of psychoanalysis, philosophy,
anthropology, and genocide, as well as the question of evil, myth
and archetype, history and critical studies, the 'discipline of
interiority', and literary works. Temporality and Shame provides
valuable insights and a rich and engaging variety of ideas. It will
appeal to psychotherapists and psychoanalysts, philosophers and
those interested in the basic philosophical grounds of experience,
and anthropologists and people engaged in cultural studies and
critical theory.
