Abstract

In The Normal Personality, Steven Reiss argues that human beings are naturally intolerant of people who express values significantly different from their own. Because of this intolerance, psychologists and psychiatrists sometimes confuse individuality with abnormality and thus over-diagnose disorders. Reiss shows how normal motives - not anxiety or traumatic childhood experiences - underlie many personality and relationship problems, such as divorce, infidelity, combativeness, workaholism, loneliness, authoritarianism, weak leadership style, perfectionism, underachievement, arrogance, extravagance, pompousness, disloyalty, disorganisation, and over-anxiety. Calling for greater understanding and tolerance of all kinds of personalities, Reiss applies his theory of motivation to leadership, human development, relationships, and counselling.

Abstract

On June 15, 1998, Ohio State University professor and psychologist Steven Reiss issued a press release announcing his most recent research results. The headline-making story was instantly picked up by Reuters and UPI, and spread to newspapers and magazines all over the world. Dr. Reiss had discovered scientific proof that our general understanding of why people act as they do is, for the most part, wrong. Experts have theorized that human behavior is driven by everything from the search for truth to the wish to maximize pleasure and minimize pain. But through exhaustive documented surveys, Dr. Reiss proved that nearly all of our thoughts and actions are motivated by sixteen basic desires and values. Reiss's system revolutionizes current behavioral theory. His book challenges our definition of who we are, how we interact with others, and what will really fulfill us in life. Offering practical applications for achieving greater personal and professional success, Who Am I? has deep relevance for all those who need to know what makes people tick-from corporate executives and advertising copywriters to salespeople, educators, therapists, and coaches. This important book changes the way we look at the world.

Abstract

Presenting the previously unpublished lecture notes of ‘Über das Leben Raffaels von Urbino’ by Carl Wilhelm Friedrich Oesterley, a lecture series given in spring 1841 at the University of Göttingen, this edition sheds light on a major step contribution to the research on Raphael and academic teaching in the 19th century. The manuscript draws on the seminal study of Johann David Passavant on Raphael and his father Giovanni Santi, published two years earlier in 1839. The volume presents a collection of studies on Oestlerley’s role within the reception of Raphael in the Romanticism and on his career as painter, arthistorian and as curator of the university art collection in Göttingen. Based on numerous original sources, the edition offers an insight into the academic teaching in the mid-19th century. Mit dem Manuskript der Vorlesung Über das Leben Raffaels von Urbino, welche Carl Wilhelm Friedrich Oesterley erstmals im Sommersemester 1841 an der Göttinger Universität hielt, wird ein bedeutendes Zeugnis der Raffael-Forschung sowie der kunstgeschichtlichen Lehrpraxis des 19. Jahrhunderts der wissenschaftlichen Öffentlichkeit vorgestellt. Erst zwei Jahre vor Entstehung des Manuskripts war im Jahr 1839 Johann David Passavants überaus einflussreiche Publikation über Raffael und seinen Vater Giovanni Santi erschienen. Oesterleys Position im Kontext der romantischen Raffael-Rezeption, sein Werdegang als Maler und Kunsthistoriker sowie seine Tätigkeit als Kustos der Göttinger Universitätskunstsammlung werden in einleitenden Aufsätzen behandelt. Auf Grundlage zahlreicher erhaltener Quellen bietet diese Edition einen exemplarischen Einblick in die kunsthistorische Lehre der Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts.
