Abstract

Hoewel allerlei vormen van verslaving meer dan ooit de samenleving ondermijnen, verschillen deskundigen nog altijd van mening over de fundamentele aard van verslaving en de beste behandelmethode. In dit boek put Carl Erik Fisher uit zijn eigen ervaring als klinisch psychiater, onderzoeker en herstellend alcoholist, afkomstig uit een familie die al generaties lang worstelt met verslavingen. Hij ontdekte dat het moeras waarin hij verkeerde slechts een herhaling was van een eeuwenoud verhaal. Met veel empathie en eruditie schetst Fisher een prikkelende cultuurgeschiedenis van verslavingsgedrag. Een fenomeen zo oud als de mensheid, dat we vele eeuwen later nauwelijks beter begrijpen.https://www.standaardboekhandel.be/p/de-drang-9789029528450

Abstract

"Long a centerpiece of eighteenth-century literary studies and a significant influence on the fiction of its day, Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe remains a standard text for teaching the period and continues to inspire popular adaptations and imitations, from children’s books to adventure films to reality TV. In teaching the work, instructors are challenged to separate the popular images of Crusoe from the text and its two sequels, creating distance from the myth without losing sight of why it is so powerful. Students need guidance in recognizing the way the novel blends genres—romance, travel tale, spiritual biography, diary, economic and political allegory—and in judging the character of Crusoe, a topic that has elicited much scholarly debate. The essays in this volume offer classroom tested strategies that address these and many other concerns."--Publisher's description.
