It draws on John Schlapobersky’s engagement as a practitioner and the words and experience of people in groups facing psychotherapy’s key challenges – understanding and change. It provides a manual of practice for therapists’ use including detailed descriptions of groups at work; accounts of therapists’ experience and the issues they face in themselves and their groups. It is devoted to the group-analytic model and brings the other psychody- namic models into a comparative discussion to create an integrated and coherent approach. The book is divided into three sections: Foundations – aimed at practitioners using groups of any kind and working at every level providing supportive psychotherapy and groups for psychosis, trauma, people at risk, the elderly and children; The Group-Analytic Model – defines the group-analytic model at a basic and advanced level; The Dynamics of Change – aimed at group analysts, psychotherapists and psychologists providing short-term psychotherapy and long-term group analysis. The book is illustrated with figures, tables and clinical vignettes including incisive, instruc- tive commentaries to explain the concepts in use. It is intended for those seeking psycho- therapy to resolve personal problems or find new sources of meaning; for policy-makers in mental health; and for students of different models of psychotherapy and the psychosocial field. The comparative discussion about methods and models of practice will be of interest to the wider mental health and psychotherapy fields. The author draws together the inherited wisdom of group analysis since Foulkes’s time Downloaded by [New York University] at 13:03 29 November 2016 and makes his own lasting contribution. From the Couch to the Circle will be an invalu- able, accessible resource for psychotherapists, psychoanalysts, psychologists, family thera- pists, academics, mental health practitioners and teachers in psychotherapy. John R. Schlapobersky is a Training Analyst, Supervisor and Teacher at the Institute of Group Analysis, London and Research Fellow, Birkbeck, University of London. He is in private practice at the Bloomsbury Psychotherapy Practice and works with individuals, couples and groups. He has trained generations of group analysts, teaches internationally and has many publications. This book is the professional life’s work of a leading British group analyst. The role of a conductor in a group-analytic group has always appeared . similar to that of a poet or writer in the community . receptive to the current problems of his time and creative in expressing them . to bring them nearer to the consciousness of those concerned. (Foulkes 1975, 1986:157) Group-analytic psychotherapy offers an incomparable instrument for under- standing the group mind or psychology of the individual in the group . (and though) much weaker . than psychoanalysis will need to build a more substantial theoretical superstructure out of the process of communication, of mirroring, of configuration and of translation. (Anthony 1978:10) Downloaded by [New York University] at 13:03 29 November 2016 From the Couch to the Circle Incredibly rich in clinical vignettes, steeped in heart, mind and scholarship and faithful to how group therapy heals, Schlapobersky’s From Couch to Circle beau- tifully depicts how ‘the troubled group that each individual has within’ is played out among the other group members. A simple testimonial cannot do justice to this monumental effort that is destined to become a classic in the field. Prof Jerry Gans MD, DLFAGPA, Harvard Medical School, Distinguished Life Fellow, American Group Psychotherapy Association. Author, Difficult Topics in Group Psychotherapy This unique publication offers the next fine turning point in group education and practice. It covers the wide range of methodology and the complexity of group experience moving from one stage of disciplined work to the next buoyed with intellectual excitement and a deft touch of humor. It draws fluently upon the three ingredients of group: process, theory and practice and will delight Modern Ana- lysts encouraging both new entrants and the most experienced practitioners. Sta- tistics, theory and typology are used with wit and daring as John takes us from the most personal narratives in case studies to varied interpretations of theory offering vivid contrasts between schools of analytic investigation. Few books can achieve the dynamic pace and thrilling results that he uses to carry the reader from one chapter to another. Phyllis F. Cohen, PhD; FAGPA; National Chair, Group Foundation for Advancing Mental Health; Former Chair Center for Group Studies, New York; American Board for Accreditation in Psychoanalysis; Downloaded by [New York University] at 13:03 29 November 2016 Former Chair, Center for Group Studies John has amassed a rich harvest in the skills by which he applies group analytic theory and technique – a narrative art. Science is in the tabulations, careful catego- rization of diagnoses, treatment results, and illuminating figures. This book will interest and inform readers seeking an introduction and mature practitioners who want to revise their own experience and ideas. Rarely do we read a single author text written with the authority that derives from such rich experience as a practitioner and teacher who enjoys and is able to utilize the work of his students. The writing of former patients gives the final stamp of authority to his work in ‘The last word’. Malcolm Pines, MRCPsych., Founder, Institute of Group Analysis London, Formerly Consultant Psychotherapist, Maudsley Hospital, St. George’s Hospital, Tavistock Clinic. Author, Circular Reflections Everyone working with groups will benefit from this book from whichever ‘school’ they come and at whatever level of experience. It is a mine of informa- tion about group analytic ideas and how to use them presented accessibly and with an appreciation of their complexity. Theoretical material is compelling and enlightening. The massive strength of the book is the case material that drives it with engaging and often moving examples and incisive, consistently instructive commentaries. John shows acute clinical sensitivity and virtues as a teacher, deploying the concepts to make sense of clinical material . and using clini- cal material recursively to flesh out the theoretical concepts . a terrific way to work. Prof Stephen Frosh PhD, Professor of Psychosocial Studies, Birkbeck, University of London. Author, Hauntings: Psychoanalysis and Ghostly Transmissions John’s masterful exposition of Foulksian group analysis and other models gives us their underlying theories, principles and clinical applications in a jargon-free, beautiful language. There shines through the man the writer is: intellectually inquisitive, emotionally engaged and deeply humane in his contact with and care for his patients. This spirit exemplifies a passage by Foulkes quoting a patient saying, ‘What is essential is not what you do but who you are.’ The book extends this spirit for experienced and new practitioners and for students who will find it especially useful. It is relevant and accessible to a wide audience of professionals including teachers, social workers, administrators and – dare one hope – politi- cians. Their reactions would be as welcome as those of John’s former patients in ‘The last word’.

Co-author, Group-Analytic Psychotherapy: A Meeting of Minds Downloaded by [New York University] at 13:03 29 November 2016 In his wonderfully well-written textbook John Schlapobersky does a great service for the field of group psychotherapy – a remarkable synthesis of accrued clinical wisdom, cutting-edge knowledge and thoughtful clinical application. The author builds articulate, eloquent bridges between individual and group psychotherapy; between members and leaders within the therapy group; between European and North American models of group psychotherapy and, most importantly, between depth theory and accessible technique. There is no better resource that brings together the worlds of group analysis and group psychotherapy. Prof Molyn Leszcz MD, FRCPC, DFAGPA. Professor and Vice-Chair, University of Toronto Department of Psychiatry, Co-author with Irvin Yalom, 5th edition, The Theory and Practice of Group Psychotherapy This book provides ‘the state of the art’ in group-analytic practice and think- ing. A most experienced clinician shares his curative approach and interventions through a wide range of clinical examples in different, touching group experi- ences. It is a joy to learn from this master teacher – he is both a model for group therapists and a theoretical innovator. John’s interest in new formulations, new approaches and a humane way of relating to patients will help the reader grow. Students as well as experienced practitioners will find the text, the broad field it covers and the depth of its studies applicable to many of their own challenges in group therapy.

  • Crossmedia Adaptation and the Development of Continuity in the Dc Animated Universe
    “INFINITE EARTHS”: CROSSMEDIA ADAPTATION AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF CONTINUITY IN THE DC ANIMATED UNIVERSE Alex Nader A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2015 Committee: Jeff Brown, Advisor Becca Cragin © 2015 Alexander Nader All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeff Brown, Advisor This thesis examines the process of adapting comic book properties into other visual media. I focus on the DC Animated Universe, the popular adaptation of DC Comics characters and concepts into all-ages programming. This adapted universe started with Batman: The Animated Series and comprised several shows on multiple networks, all of which fit into a shared universe based on their comic book counterparts. The adaptation of these properties is heavily reliant to intertextuality across DC Comics media. The shared universe developed within the television medium acted as an early example of comic book media adapting the idea of shared universes, a process that has been replicated with extreme financial success by DC and Marvel (in various stages of fruition). I address the process of adapting DC Comics properties in television, dividing it into “strict” or “loose” adaptations, as well as derivative adaptations that add new material to the comic book canon. This process was initially slow, exploding after the first series (Batman: The Animated Series) changed networks and Saturday morning cartoons flourished, allowing for more opportunities for producers to create content. References, crossover episodes, and the later series Justice League Unlimited allowed producers to utilize this shared universe to develop otherwise impossible adaptations that often became lasting additions to DC Comics publishing.

  • Duplicity: Exploring the Many Faces of Gotham
    Duplicity: Exploring the many faces of Gotham “And man shall be just that for the overman: a laughing stock or a painful embarrassment.” - Friedrich Nietzsche, Also Sprach Zarathustra The Dark Knight, Christopher Nolan’s follow up to 2005’s convention- busting Batman Begins, has just broken the earlier box office record set by Spiderman 3 with a massive opening weekend haul of $158 million. While the figures say much about this franchise’s impact on the popular imagination, critical reception has also been in a rare instance overwhelmingly concurrent. What is even more telling is that the old and new opening records were both set by superhero movies. Much has already been discussed in the media about the late Heath Ledger’s brave performance and how The Dark Knight is a gritty new template for all future comic-to-movie adaptations, so we won’t go into much more of that here. Instead, let’s take a hard and fast look at absolutes and motives: old, new, black, white and a few in between. The brutality of The Dark Knight is also the brutality of America post-9/11: the inevitable conflict of idealism and reality, a frustrating political comedy of errors, and a rueful Wodehouseian reconciliation of the improbable with the impossible. Even as the film’s convoluted and always engaging plot breaks down some preconceptions about the psychology of the powerful, others are renewed (at times without logical basis) – that politicians are corruptible, that heroes are intrinsically flawed, that what you cannot readily comprehend is evil incarnate – and it isn’t always clear if this is an attempt at subtle irony or a weary concession to formula.

  • Redeveloping the Distillery District, Toronto
    Place Differentiation: Redeveloping the Distillery District, Toronto by Vanessa Kirsty Mathews A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Geography University of Toronto © Copyright by Vanessa Kirsty Mathews 2010 Place Differentiation: Redeveloping the Distillery District, Toronto Doctor of Philosophy Vanessa Kirsty Mathews, 2010 Department of Geography University of Toronto Abstract What role does place differentiation play in contemporary urban redevelopment processes, and how is it constructed, practiced, and governed? Under heightened forms of interurban competition fueled by processes of globalization, there is a desire by place- makers to construct and market a unique sense of place. While there is consensus that place promotion plays a role in reconstructing landscapes, how place differentiation operates – and can be operationalized – in processes of urban redevelopment is under- theorized in the literature. In this thesis, I produce a typology of four strategies of differentiation – negation, coherence, residue, multiplicity – which reside within capital transformations and which require activation by a set of social actors. I situate these ideas via an examination of the redevelopment of the Gooderham and Worts distillery, renamed the Distillery District, which opened to the public in 2003. Under the direction of the private sector, the site was transformed from a space of alcohol production to a space of cultural consumption. The developers used a two pronged approach for the site‟s redevelopment: historic preservation and arts-led regeneration. Using a mixed method approach including textual analysis, in-depth interviews, visual analysis, and site observation, I examine the strategies used to market the Distillery as a distinct place, and the effects of this marketing strategy on the valuation of art, history, and space.

  • ARKHAM ASYLUM 1 Empathizing with Enemies
    Running head: ARKHAM ASYLUM 1 Empathizing with Enemies: Establishing Good Practices for Patient-Provider Communication at Arkham Asylum © Randy Sabourin, Ottawa, Canada, 2016 Key Words: Mental health, popular culture, narrative inquiry, interviews, patient-provider communication ARKHAM ASYLUM 2 Abstract Arkham Asylum is the home of some of popular culture's most notorious super villains. The neglect and inadequate care these villains receive mirrors a real world context in which mental illness is surrounded by stigma, misunderstanding, and poor rehabilitation rates. Patients like the Joker present complex mental health narratives. These extreme characters would likely be high profile subjects for real-world researchers. This study explores the niches between the usual action-packed escapades on the surface of Batman stories. By pulling back the curtain over the routine treatment of Arkham Asylum’s patients (also known as inmates), the researcher presents a set of good practices for improving their care through more effective communication. A rich data set of recorded audio interviews from the video game Batman: Arkham Asylum serves as the foundation for this set of good practices tailored to the needs of the fictional facility. Narrative inquiry is used to pull these recommendations from the data. Current real world mental health policies and good practices for patient-provider communication, grounded in existing literature, provide the framework within which the researcher compares the fictional world. Based on the narrative elements found in the data, this study recommends an empathy- driven and preventative approach to treating Gotham’s criminally insane population.

  • Approaching Algorithmic Power Luke Munn
    Approaching Algorithmic Power Luke Munn A thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) at the Institute for Culture & Society, Western Sydney University February 2019 Contemporary power manifests in the algorithmic. Emerging quite recently as an object of study within media and communications, cultural research, gender and race studies, and urban geography, the algorithm often seems ungraspable. Framed as code, it becomes proprietary property, black-boxed and inaccessible. Framed as a totality, its becomes overwhelmingly complex, incomprehensible in its operations. Framed as a procedure, it becomes a technique to be optimised, bracketing out the political. In struggling to adequately grasp the algorithmic as an object of study, to unravel its mechanisms and materialities, these framings offer limited insight into how algorithmic power is initiated and maintained. This thesis instead argues for an alternative approach: firstly, that the algorithmic is coordinated by a coherent internal logic, a knowledge-structure that understands the world in particular ways; second, that the algorithmic is enacted through control, a material and therefore observable performance which purposively influences people and things towards a predetermined outcome; and third, that this complex totality of architectures and operations can be productively analysed as strategic sociotechnical clusters of machines. This method of inquiry is developed with and tested against four contemporary examples: Uber, Airbnb, Amazon Alexa, and Palantir Gotham. Highly profitable, widely adopted and globally operational, they exemplify the algorithmic shift from whiteboard to world. But if the world is productive, it is also precarious, consisting of frictional spaces and antagonistic subjects. Force cannot be assumed as unilinear, but is incessantly negotiated—operations of parsing data and processing tasks forming broader operations that strive to establish subjectivities and shape relations.
