Sexual abuse in childhood and the experience of resolving process
Full text linkSpolne zlorabe so vsa dejanja, povezana s spolnostjo, ki jih oseba čuti kot prisilo. Gre za nezakonita dejanja, ki kršijo etične, moralne in socialne norme. Osrednja tematika magistrskega dela je doživljanje t. i. odnosa odrešenja. Le-ta je namreč najbolj pripomogel k razreševanju posameznikove travme, ki jo je doživel v obliki spolne zlorabe v otroštvu. Z vprašalniki, opravljenimi po fenomenološki psihološki metodi dela, je avtorica pridobila vpogled v doživljanje procesa predelovanja travme pri žrtvah spolnih zlorab. Rezultati so bili interpretirani s perspektive avtorice, ki jih je povezala z dojemanjem drugih avtorjev in znanstvenimi spoznanji. Odrešenjski odnosi, po katerih žrtve spolnih zlorab hrepenijo, so najbolj osnovni, pa vendar zelo celoviti. Največja želja zlorabljenega posameznika je, da bi ga slišali, mu verjeli, razumeli, kakšno moč ima zloraba nanj, in mu kasneje ob predelovanju negativnih občutij stali ob strani. Za predelovanje travme je pogosto potrebna strokovna pomoč, vendar lahko vsak odnos posameznika zunaj terapije izredno pripomore k razreševanju negativnih občutkov in izboljšanju njegovega vsakodnevnega delovanja.Sexual abuse are all acts related to sexuality that people feel as coercion. Sexual abuse violates ethical, moral and social norms and is against the law. The main theme of the author\u27s work is the experience of the relationship – the relationship of salvation – which helped the individual to eliminate and resolve the trauma that the victim had experienced in the form of sexual abuse in childhood. With questionnaires, based on phenomenological psychological method of work, the author obtained an insight into the experience of the process resolving trauma of sexual abuse. The results are interpreted from the perspective of the author, which links them with the perception of other authors and scientific knowledge. The relationships of salvation are so basic, yet very comprehensive. The greatest desires of the abused individuals are to hear them, to believe them and to understand the power of the abuse, and later, having a support through the resolving process. Expert assistance is often needed for trauma treatment, but any relationship that individuals have outside the therapy can greatly contribute to resolving negative feelings and improving their everyday

'A date with Barbara': paracosms of the self in biographies of Barbara Newhall Follett
No full textIn 1927, 13-year-old Barbara Newhall Follett published her first book, the critically acclaimed novel, The House Without Windows and Eepersip's Life There.
Twelve years later, on December 7, 1939, 25-year-old Barbara quarrelled with her husband and left her apartment in Boston with $30 in her pocket, and a notebook. She was never seen again.
The House Without Windows is set in a paracosm (Farksolia) she invented, and ends with the metamorphosis of the titular character into a 'fairy-a wood nymph … invisible for ever to all mortals, save those few who have minds to believe, eyes to see'.
In Barbara's (auto)biography, The Unconscious Autobiography of a Child Genius (1966), written by Harold Grier McCurdy 'in collaboration with Helen Follett' (Barbara's mother), the authors wonder: 'Can we be far wrong in substituting Barbara's name for Eepersip's in the closing scenes of [House Without Windows]?
In this paper, I grapple with the formal and ethical challenges of writing about Barbara Newhall Follett, and the ways her family and others have approached the problem of writing her unresolved life story: a child raised and educated in solitude, a celebrated 'natural' child author, a young woman whose disappearance remains unsolved. The paper will explore the ways in which adults write the stories of children's lives, as nostalgia and fable, as fairytale and paracosmic narrative, and the ways in which Barbara's biographers have, consciously and unconsciously, created biographical concordances, or paracosms of the self, in seeking to make meaning of her life's story
