Konsep diri dalam eksistensialisme Rollo May
No full textThe main purpose of this research is to describe the concept of “self" according to Rollo May, by departing from the previous concepts of “self”, in this case, from the perspective of psychology and existentialism. The results of this study was found that existentialism is a practical philosophy that brings humans to understand life with self-awareness, and anxiety leads to individual awareness as a person who exists in the world.The author uses a qualitative literature method which focuses on one of Rollo May's books, Man's Search for Himself, and assisted by other works. So the first step of the writer describes the concept of “self” which came before Rollo May, then draws a common thread from previous theories, to search for areas that have not been touched, and arrive at the concept of the importance of awareness of “self” as an existing perso
La littérature de l’entre-deux et le regard sur la langue française. Enjeux linguistiques et identitaires dans l\u27oeuvre de Fouad Laroui
No full textFouad Laroui, a talented Moroccan author who writes in French and at times Dutch, is an exemplar of the in-between – in fact, the in-between-several-cultures. Like many Moroccans, he is “neither here nor there”. His original work, notable for the author’s dual belonging as well as its highly ironic vein, embodies multiple facets of multiculturalism, which he experienced during his youth at the French “lycée” in Casablanca, his trips to the western world (he now lives in Amsterdam) and through openness to European cultures. His stories in French are enriched with diverse references, resulting in a sort of patchwork – a jumble of words where the French language is present, but it is coloured by other languages and literary reminiscences (Laroui cited in Martin & Drevet 107).This article reflects on the author’s relationship with the French language and culture, by analysing the sense of identity and search for identity of his characters whose connections with France, and the western world, are marked by conflicting feelings, bearing traces of the Maghreb authors’ own sense of being torn. Is French an instrument of oppression or emancipation? The article focuses on two representative works, “Le jour où Malika ne s’est pas mariée” (2009) and “Une année chez les Français” (2010), set against the complex, multilingual backdrop of Morocco as discussed in his essay “Le drame linguistique marocain” (2011).Fouad Laroui, a talented Moroccan author who writes in French and at times Dutch, is an exemplar of the in-between – in fact, the in-between-several-cultures.

Young men have always wanted to rush into print: a note on Denis Glover's writings on typography
No full textDenis Glover was a self-assessed expert on typography. This article reviews Glover’s education and training as a typographer and discusses his four accessible published articles. The article then assesses his contribution to the establishment of higher standards of type selection and use in the post-WWII period, particularly for book work. The 'new' typography he and others promoted is now the established typography.Lindsay Rollo, a retired one-time technical editor, is now an independent researcher.Correspondence about this article may be directed to the author at [email protected]</jats:p
Glover’s and Fairburn’s Inklings
No full textDenis Glover and ARD Fairburn each contributed three items to the long defunct trade house magazine Inkling: 1947– 51. The significance of the publication to New Zealand printing industry is discussed. The influence of the two authors in proselytising improved client relations and adopting higher standards of typography is assessed in the context of the literary nationalism that emerged in the late 1930s. Inkling was also an important vehicle for the illustrator and cartoonist Robert Brett.Lindsay Rollo, a retired one-time technical editor, is now an independent researcher.Correspondence about this article may be directed to the author at [email protected]

REVISITANDO A ANSIEDADE NA OBRA DE ROLLO MAY: : DIÁLOGOS COM A FENOMENOLOGIA CLÍNICA
No full textIn contemporary times, discussions about anxiety distance it from its existential connotation, highlighting its morbid character as a symptom or mental disorder. Rollo May, an American psychologist, in the mid twentieth century points to the need to broaden this view by proposing existential psychotherapy. In this article, we carry out theoretical research aiming to investigate anxiety in the writings of this author, in dialogue with a clinical phenomenology of ambiguity. For clinical phenomenology, anxiety is part of a fundamental affective disposition that lies at the base of existence and its pathological expression reveals the impairment in intersubjective subject /world contact. Rollo May approaches this view, relating anxiety with freedom and becoming, but distances itself from clinical phenomenology by referencing an encapsulated subjectivity.En los tiempos contemporáneos, las discusiones sobre la ansiedad lo alejan de su connotación existencial, destacando su carácter mórbido como síntoma o trastorno mental. Rollo May, psicólogo estadounidense, en el siglo XX señala la necesidad de ampliar este punto de vista proponiendo psicoterapia existencial. En este artículo, llevamos a cabo una investigación teórica con el objetivo de investigar la ansiedad en los escritos del referido autor, en diálogo con una fenomenología clínica de la ambigüedad. Para la fenomenología clínica, la ansiedad es parte de una disposición afectiva fundamental que se encuentra en la base de la existencia y su expresión patológica revela el deterioro en el contacto intersubjetivo sujeto/mundo. Rollo May aborda este punto de vista relacionando la ansiedad con la libertad y el devenir, pero se distancia de la fenomenología clínica al retratar la subjetividad encapsulada.Na contemporaneidade, as discussões sobre ansiedade a distanciam de sua conotação existencial, ressaltando seu caráter mórbido como sintoma ou transtorno mental.

Angustia y existencia: la psicología de Kierkegaard según Rollo May
No full textIn the first systematic study of Kierkegaard’s psychology, Kierkegaard’s
Psychology (1972), written in Danish by Kresten Nordentoft, the author
considers that the first attempt to present Kierkegaard’s psychological
theories was made by Rollo May in The Meaning of Anxiety (1950). In
1958, together with Ernest Angel and Henri Ellenberguer, May also edited Existence. A new dimension in Psychiatry and Psychology. The aim of
this article is to describe the way in which May conceives Kierkegaard as a
“psychologist”, based on the analysis of existentialism and its coincidence
with psychoanalysis in the diagnosis of the “crisis of the modern individual”. For doing so, the concepts of anxiety and existence are taken as
the main thematic lines of description.En el primer estudio sistemático sobre la psicología de Kierkegaard, Kierkegaard´s Psychology (1972), escrito en danés por Kresten Nordentoft, el autor considera que el primer intento de presentar las teorías psicológicas de Kierkegaard fue realizado por Rollo May en The Meaning of Anxiety (1950). Además de esta obra, en 1958, junto con Ernest Angel y Henri Ellenberguer, May edita Existence. A new dimension in Psychiatry and Psychology. El objetivo de este artículo consiste en describir el modo en que May concibe a Kierkegaard como “psicólogo”, a partir del análisis del existencialismo y su coincidencia con el psicoanálisis en el diagnóstico de la “crisis del individuo moderno”.

Multifaceted Aspects of HIV-1 Nucleocapsid Inhibition by TAR-Targeting Peptidyl-Anthraquinones Bearing Terminal Aromatic Moieties
No full text2,6-dipeptidyl-anthraquinones are polycyclic planar systems substituted at opposite ring positions by short aminoacyl side chains. Derivatives with positively charged terminal amino acids showed in vitro inhibition of HIV-1 nucleocapsid (NC) protein correlating with threading intercalation through nucleic acid substrates. We found that the variation of the terminal amino acid into an aromatic moiety has profound effects on the NC inhibition of TAR–RNA melting, granting enhanced interaction with the protein. While all compounds showed appreciable NC and TAR binding, they exhibited different strengths driven by the length of the peptidyl side chains and by the stereochemistry of the terminal tyrosine. Unexpectedly, the best inhibitors of NC-induced TAR melting, characterized by the D- configuration of tyrosine, were able to form ternary complexes without competing with TAR–NC recognition sites, as shown by native mass spectrometry experiments. Furthermore, the hydrophobicity of the terminal residue enhances membrane permeation, with positive implications for further studies on these NC–TAR-targeted compounds
