After completing the High School for Daughters, she attended Vaci Utcai Gimnazium in Budapest, even though it was unusual at the time for a woman to continue formal education. Budapest was of great influence on her life and career.[1] She met the influential Hungarian psychoanalyst Sándor Ferenczi, became fascinated by the concept of the unconscious, and was encouraged to read Sigmund Freud.[2] In September 1916, Schönberger began Art History studies at the University of Budapest, but in January 1917 she switched to Medical School.

Even though its pitch structure may appear rather straight- forward with its octatonic scale and the primary tonal center in C, and with referential (quasi-tonic) chords derived from the harmonic series, I intend to highlight intricate narrative trajectories and dramatic conflicts between various tonal centers (treated as actors/characters). These narratives can be related to certain archetypal plots, with the *1 Author contact information: [email protected] 131 New Sound 54, II/2019 conclusion that there exists ambiguity between the tragic and the ironic archetype. On a higher plane, similar conflict/interplay/ambiguity exists between different principles of pitch organization, i.e. the octatonic and functionally tonal. The unresolved ambi- guities and simultaneity of conflicting interpretations are examined from the psycho- analytic perspective, which postulates isomorphism between musical structures and processes and the processes unfolding in the unconscious mind. Finally, the effect of these narratives, especially the overwhelming impact induced by the excerpt from Mozart’s piano concerto is linked with the idea of sublime as conceived by Kant, but also including other approaches (Burke, Lyotard etc.).

  • Music to Be Used in Treating Mental Retardation and Mental Illness 1
    Running Head: MUSIC TO BE USED IN TREATING MENTAL RETARDATION AND MENTAL ILLNESS 1 Music to Be Used in Treating Mental Retardation and Mental Illness Jordan Mitchell Helena College Introduction to Psychology 100 Professor Curtis Peterson MUSIC TO BE USED IN TREATING MENTAL RETARDATION AND MENTAL ILLNESS 2 Mental retardation and mental illness have been forces for study for centuries. Doctors and psychologists alike have studied these things extensively. A plethora of studies, theories, hypotheses, treatments, and advances in the fields of medicine and psychology have been made and examined because of them. From doctors to scholars, mental retardation and illness have led to a myriad of possible treatment solutions formulated around them. I, like the many scholars and experts, seek to find a solution to these abnormalities. This paper will examine the meanings, causes, facets, and effects of mental retardation and illness on both medicine and psychology; it will also examine the effect of music, as well as the effects it has on the human brain. These examinations will subsequently be used to propose plausible treatments. Medicine and Mental Abnormality Webster’s New World Medical Dictionary defines “mental retardation” as: “The condition of having an IQ measured as below 70 to 75 and significant delays or lacks in at least two areas of adaptive skills” (Shiel and Stöppler). While this offers an informative, basic definition, it still only scratches the surface of what the conditions entail. These abnormalities range from simple, easy-to-handle conditions such as some forms of Asperger syndrome, a type of autism in which strange levels of focus and attention are observed, as well as inappropriate social communication (“Asperger Syndrome”).

  • Beyond Music and Beyond Words: a Psychoanalytic Inquiry
    STUDIJE O MUZIČKOJ UMETNOSTI/STUDIES ON MUSIC Miloš Zatkalik UDC 78.01 Univerzitet umetnosti u Beogradu doi:10.5937/ZbAkUm1801089Z Fakultet muzičke umetnosti Original scientific paper Aleksandar Kontić Visoka škola likovnih i primenjenih umetnosti u Beogradu. Beyond music and beyond words: A psychoanalytic inquiry Abstract. Relationships between language and music have always been lively and dynamic, from their syncretic unity in rituals, to setting text to music, verbal accounts of musical works, musicalization of literature, to abundance of linguistic and literary metaphors in discourse about music. Both language and music unfold in time; both possess a hierarchy of elements that are combined according to a set of rules. This paper will first indicate some linguistic (primarily syntactic) concepts that inform music theory. An analogy can also be established between the Chomskyan concept of the deep structure of language and Schenkerian Ursatz. Music, however, is not always organized along the lines of syntactic hierarchy. Music is also capable of simultaneity in a way inaccessible to language. In order to negotiate this ambiguous relationship between music and language, we invoke the psychoanalytic model of the mind. It postulates that the archaic experience of the world is associated with the auditory sphere. This auditory, pre-verbal mode of conceiving the world will gradually yield to subsequent developmental phases: the visual, and then verbal communication. The deep structure of music is necessarily analogous to verbal structures. However, owing to its pre-verbal origin, music is also organized according to the more archaic modes of mental functioning. For instance: the precepts of logic do not apply; music allows condensation much more readily than language.

    Research Paper IJBARR Impact Factor: 3.072 E- ISSN -2347-856X ISSN -2348-0653 MUSIC IS AN ART AND SCIENCE Prof. P.Thenmozhi Associate Professor and Head, Department of Home Science, Seethalakshmi Ramaswami College, Tiruchirappalli,,India. Music is an art form whose medium is sound and silence. Its common elements are pitch (science which governs melody and harmony), rhythm (and its associated concepts tempo, meter, and articulation), dynamics, and the sonic qualities of timbre and texture. The word derives from Greek μουσική (mousike; "art of the Muses").The creation, performance, significance, and even the definition of music vary according to culture and social context. Music ranges from strictly organized compositions (and their recreation in performance), through improvisational music to aleatoric forms. Within the arts, music may be classified as a performing art, a fine art, and auditory art. It may also be divided among art music and folk music. There is also a strong connection between music and mathematics (Talas-counts). Music may be played and heard live, may be part of a dramatic work or film, or may be recorded. Music is a miniature of the harmony of the whole universe, for the harmony of the universe is life itself, and humans, being a miniature of the universe, show harmonious and inharmonious chords in their pulsations, in the beat of their hearts, in their vibration, rhythm and tone. Their health or illness, their joy or discomfort, all show the music or lack of music in their life.Tanjore is to Carnatic Music where Germany is to Western Music. Music is the language of our soul and the soul is the residence of our spirituality.

    JORNAL de PSICANÁLISE 51(95), 259-272. 2018 A literatura na construção da linguagem do analista1 Maria Luiza Salomão,2 São Paulo Resumo: Ao refletir sobre a construção da linguagem analítica, tomo o conceito de Ferro (2008), que vê nos relatos do paciente uma narrativa: enfatiza a escuta do como o paciente narra, e não o conteúdo propriamente dito (sintomas). Reflito sobre como Freud, em seus historiais clínicos, concede-se liberdade para criar uma narrativa sobre seus pacientes, criando conceitos iluminadores da prática psicanalítica. Dou como exemplo o conceito de cena primária, presente em seu trabalho com o paciente russo Sergei Pankejeff (Freud, 1918/2010), o Homem dos Lobos, que rejeita ter tido a experiência descrita por Freud, dizendo ser uma invenção do pai da psicanálise. Freud, ao comunicar suas descobertas, constrói, audaz, uma linguagem e um léxico, que permite ao leitor um desdobramento fértil de ideias e de percepções. Ao transmitir sua experiência analítica, não cuida de seguir literalmente o relato do paciente, mas cria uma narrativa que permite ir além do vivido na dupla, construindo conceitos com base em sua potência investigativa e imaginativa. Considero, neste texto, a leitura de textos psicanalíticos como experiências emocionais, semelhantes às leituras que faço de poesias e de prosas literárias. Reflito brevemente sobre as vicissitudes que os analistas enfrentam na transmissão de suas experiências clínicas nos encontros entre pares; assim como na interferência da personalidade do analista na experiência e no relato da experiência da dupla analítica. Palavras-chave: narrativa psicanalítica, construção da linguagem psicanalítica, leituras psicanalíticas Leio a literatura psicanalítica como leio poesia e escrita literária.
