Apophatic Elements in the Theory and Practice of Psychoanalysis: Pseudo-Dionysius and C.G. Jung
No full textThis thesis identifies apophatic elements in the theory and practice of psychoanalysis through an examination of Pseudo-Dionysius and C.G. Jung. Pseudo-Dionysius brought together Greek and Biblical currents of negative theology and the via negativa. The apophatic concepts and metaphors which appear in the work of Pseudo-Dionysius are identified. The psychology of Jung can be read as a continuation and extension of the apophatic tradition. The presence of neoplatonic themes in Jung’s work is discussed, as well as his references to Pseudo-Dionysius. There is a thorough examination of Jung’s discussion of opposites, including his reception of Nicholas of Cusa’s concept of the coincidence of opposites. The role of the transcendent function in Jung’s psychology is reviewed. The work of contemporary scholars of religion, philosophers and Jungian theorists are compared to Jung’s using the lens of apophasis. There is an exploration of ways in which motifs in Pseudo-Dionysius’ Ecclesiatical Hierarchy resonate with contemporary psychoanalytic psychotherapy. This study demonstrates that apophatic motifs saturate Jung’s work. It provides a platform for research into apophasis in the wider field of psychoanalysis

C. G. Jung and Hermann Hesse: Art, therapy, and sources of creativity
No full textDůvěrný vztah Hermanna Hesse k hlubinné psychologii, založený na osobním kontaktu s C. G. Jungem a jeho žákem J. B. Langem, je známým tématem z dějin literatury i psychoterapie minulého století. Předchozí studie však byly napsány ještě v době, kdy nebylo veřejnosti přístupné Jungovo stěžejní dílo – Červená kniha. Kniha je podána jako středověký rukopis, kde důležitou roli nehraje jen slovo, ale také obrazy, které Jung sám maloval. V tomto článku se zamýšlím nad tím, nakolik lze Hesseho texty, především jeho novelu Demian, využít k přesnějšímu poznání Jungových myšlenek a zejména k jeho přístupu k práci s obrazem v rámci terapeutického procesu v době, kdy Červená kniha vznikala. Kromě toho chci analyzovat hypotetické obrazové zdroje, z nichž Jung mohl při ilustrování Červené knihy vycházet. Těmito zdroji by mohlo být zejména beuronské umění, které Jung mohl znát jak z vlastní zkušenosti, tak prostřednictvím knižních publikací, ale také fotografií či pohlednic. Právě rozsáhlá obrazová kultura doby „tiskového kapitalismu“ mohla poskytnout obrazovou inspiraci jak Jungovi, tak Hessemu.An intimate relationship of Hermann Hesse to analytical psychology, based on his personal contact with C. G. Jung and his disciple J. B. Lang, belongs to the well-known topics from the history both of literature and of psychotherapy of the past century. The foregoing studies were, however, written in the time when Jung´s pivotal work, The Red Book, was not available to the public. The Book was written as a medieval manuscript where an important role is played not only by words but also by pictures which were painted by Jung himself. In this article I deal with the question how far it is possible to use Hesse´s texts, especially his novel Demian, for better understanding of Jung´s ideas, in particular his approach to images in the framework of the therapeutic process at the time when The Red Book was written. Besides, I will analyze the hypothetical pictorial sources which could have been used by Jung when writing The Red Book. These sources could have been the works of the Beuron school which could be known to Jung either from his own experience or from photos and postcards. The extensive visual culture of the time of the “print capitalism” could supply the visual inspiration both to Jung, and to Hesse.

Tracking Virus-Specific CD4+ T Cells during and after Acute Hepatitis C Virus Infection
No full textBackground. CD4+ T cell help is critical in maintaining antiviral immune responses and such help has been shown to be sustained in acute resolving hepatitis C. In contrast, in evolving chronic hepatitis C CD4+ T cell helper responses appear to be absent or short-lived, using functional assays. Methodology/Prencipal Findings. Here we used a novel HLA-DR1 tetramer containing a highly targeted CD4+ T cell epitope from the hepatitis C virus non-structural protein 4 to track number and phenotype of hepatitis C virus specific CD4+ T cells in a cohort of seven HLA-DR1 positive patients with acute hepatitis C in comparison to patients with chronic or resolved hepatitis C. We observed peptide-specific T cells in all seven patients with acute hepatitis C regardless of outcome at frequencies up to 0.65% of CD4+ T cells. Among patients who transiently controlled virus replication we observed loss of function, and/or physical deletion of tetramer+ CD4+ T cells before viral recrudescence. In some patients with chronic hepatitis C very low numbers of tetramer+ cells were detectable in peripheral blood, compared to robust responses detected in spontaneous resolvers. Importantly we did not observe escape mutations in this key CD4+ T cell epitope in patients with evolving chronic hepatitis C. Conclusions/Significance. During acute hepatitis C a CD4+ T cell response against this epitope is readily induced in most, if not all, HLA-DR1 + patients. This antiviral T cell population becomes functionally impaired or is deleted early in the course of disease in those where viremia persists
Measurement of the ratio of branching fractions B(B0→K∗0γ )/B(B0s→φγ ) and the directCP asymmetry inB 0→K∗0γ
No full textThe ratio of branching fractions of the radiative B decays B0→K⁎0γ and B0s→ϕγ has been measured using an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb−1 of pp collision data collected by the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of s√=7TeV. The value obtained is
B(B0→K⁎0γ)B(B0s→ϕγ)=1.23±0.06(stat.)±0.04(syst.)±0.10(fs/fd),
where the first uncertainty is statistical, the second is the experimental systematic uncertainty and the third is associated with the ratio of fragmentation fractions fs/fd. Using the world average value for B(B0→K⁎0γ), the branching fraction B(B0s→ϕγ) is measured to be (3.5±0.4)×10−5.
The direct CP asymmetry in B0→K⁎0γ decays has also been measured with the same data and found to be
ACP(B0→K⁎0γ)=(0.8±1.7(stat.)±0.9(syst.))%.
Both measurements are the most precise to date and are in agreement with the previous experimental results and theoretical expectations
Juncus kuohii Jung, 2013, sp. nov.
No full textJuncus kuohii M.-J. Jung, sp. nov. (Figs. 1 A–J & 3) TYPE:— TAIWAN. Nantou Hsien: Jen-ai Hsiang, Hohuan Hostel, 121° 17'01" E, 24° 08'33" N, 3210 m, 13 September 2012, M.- J. Jung 5955 (holotype TAIF!; isotypes HAST!, TNU!). Juncus kuohii is similar to J. fauriensis in appearance, but can be differentiated by more cataphylls at the base of the plant, the sheath apex with or without inconspicuous auricles, and the dark brownish outer tepals with light or dark central band and castaneous to dark brownish side. Perennial, 10–40 cm tall, caespitose; rhizome short, horizontal, to 2 cm long; culms terete, rather stout, base bulb-like, nodes 1 or 2; flowering culm 1-noded. Cataphylls 2–5, basal, to 15 cm long, to 2 mm wide, pluritubulose, imperfectly septate, pale greenish to brownish tinged with purplish margin. Cauline leaves 1–2; sheath pale greenish, margin hyaline, membranaceous; auricles inconspicuous or not present, oblong when present, hyaline, membranaceous, to 1 mm long; blade linear, flat, pluritubulose, imperfectly septate, apex obtuse to acute, base narrower than sheath apex, pale greenish to pale brownish, to 6 cm long, to 2 mm wide. Inflorescence terminal, racemose, composed of 3–6 obconical head of 3–6 flowers, on a peduncle 0.5–4 cm long. Lower bract leaf-like, linear, apex acute, to 4 cm long, to 2 mm wide, nearly equal to inflorescence in length. Bract narrowly ovate, 5–5.5 mm long, apex acuminate and mucronate, dark brownish, inconspicuously 3-nerved, margins hyaline, membranaceous; pedicel to 2 mm long, glabrous. Perianth parts 6, equal or nearly equal in length; outer tepals 3, lanceolate to narrowly ovate, apex acute to acuminate, mucronate, 4.5–4.7 mm long, central part pale or dark brownish, sides castaneous to dark brownish, margin membranaceous and hyaline, veinless; inner tepals 3, oblong, apex round, totally dark brownish, veinless, 3.5–3.7 mm long. Stamens 6; filament to 1 mm long, anther ca. 1.1 mm long. Pistil 1, ovary ca. 2.5 mm long, ca. 1.5 mm wide; style to 0.5 mm long, stigma 3-lobed, to 1 mm long. Capsule trigonous, ellipsoid, unilocular, 2.5–3.5 mm long, dark brownish. Habitat, distribution and IUCN Red List category: — Juncus kuohii M.- J. Jung occurs in grassland in a wetland area, where there is full sun, in a ditch on the ridge at high elevation (about 3210 m) of central Taiwan (Fig. 2). This species grows into a dense clump. It occurs with Carex nubigena D. Don (1823: 455) and Primula miyabeana Ito & Kawakamii (1911: 1). Only one population was found, and its distribution is less than 1 km 2. According to the IUCN Red List criteria (IUCN 2001), J. kuohii should be categorized as Critically Endangered (CR). Etymology: —The author dedicates this new Juncus species to Dr. Chang-Sheng Kuoh, the agrostologist and former vice-professor of Department of Life Sciences, National Cheng-Kung University. The specific epithet recognizes his keen interest and substantial contribution to the study of Taiwanese dicotyledonous and monocotyledonous families and his significant role in editing the Flora of Taiwan covering both the native and naturalized flora. Morphological comparison: — Juncus kuohii is similar in appearance to another Juncus species in section Ozophyllum native to northeastern Asia (Japan to Kamschatca Peninsula): J. fauriensis, comprising two subspecies. However, several diagnostic characters separating these three taxa (Table 1) were found after relevant vouchers and literature (Buchenau 1906, Kudo 1922, Kirschner 2002) were examined. Juncus kuohii is more similar to J. fauriensis subsp. kamschatcensis (Buchenau 1906: 159) Novikov (1990: 122) than to subsp. fauriensis, especially in floral characters (Table 1). Following the classification of Kirschner (2002), J. kuohii would be classified under subgenus Juncus section Ozophyllum. (Buchenau) Novikov, and J. kuohii M.-J. Jung.
