Harvest: Book III of the Trilogy Renaissance (eBook, ePUB)

Healing the Great Divide

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The Book of Job is relevant to this third trilogy book, Harvest, because dialogue, even if antagonistic, is part of the growth process and matures us out of our problems and into an awareness of broader concerns. The pitfall to writing an autobiography is retaining perspective. Too easily, the writer can slip into self-flattery and lose objectivity. Carl Yung chose the Book of Job to draw his patients out of their self-absorption into full maturity as responsible adults. For psychological healing to occur through therapeutics, Sigmund Fraud's dream analysis encouraged revelation but also self-absorption. Fraud and Yung worked together. Their parting was over the relationship between a mother and son.

Fraud averred the maternal relationship centered around the incestuous Oedipus Complex. Yung said the connection is spiritual. First, of course, to achieve healing, we must dig deep into our past and identify issues that contribute to our psychological makeup. That is self-absorbing. However, complete emotional and psychological healing happens when we put our psychological issues behind us. We become well when we grow out of dwelling on our past and take responsibility for who we are in the present.

Autorenporträt

Barry Woods Johnston graduated in architecture from Georgia Tech, studied two years at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, served in Vietnam as a Combat Artist, then pursued European methods of professional training as a sculptor, working in Florence, Italy, between 1970 and 1972 and in Pietrasanta, Italy, at the Tommasi Foundry between 1985 to 1988. Johnston's art career includes prestigious peer-reviewed awards from the National Sculpture Society, Allied Artists of America, Salmagundi Club, National Arts Club, and National Academy of Design. Johnston's sculptures can be found in museums in the U.S., Italy, Holland, and China.Art critic Steve Mirabella once wrote: "The sculpture of Barry Woods Johnston is destined to speak to future generations as powerfully as it does to his own. Having learned from the past, he emotionally absorbs the present and thinks towards the future. He is a modern Renaissance man with talents ranging from architecture, classical piano, drawing, painting, composing, and philosophy to athletics." Invited to participate in the Berlin International Amateur Piano Competition in 2008 and 2010 and awarded 15 patents for his inventions, artists and engineers have likened him to Leonardo da Vinci. His heat engine invention will bring Combined Heat to Power, CHP generation of electricity, into the mainstream.
