This paper describes the transplantation of psychoanalysis from Europe to Los Angeles and the similarities and differences in followers, cultural attitudes, institutional organization, and patient symptoms. Psychoanalysis in both places attracted psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, artists, writers, and movie people, all committed to "modernism" and cultural change. But special Americ...

All knowledge belongs to narrative knowledge, and also local knowledge. Post-modernism can be defined as “elimination of grand narrative”, so in the world of post-modernism, validity of knowledge has become an issue. Local knowledge emphasizes that generation and justification of knowledge has its local features, so it has no way to surpass the dilemma of cultural relativism. Theoretically, in ...

The ‘visual attractiveness’ of a building façade refers to the extent which it provokes an immediate or ‘pre-attentive’ physiological response. Two factors that can shape this response are complexity’ and ‘strength attraction’. former innate capacity draw viewer's eye, latter its hold gaze. In article two computational methods – fractal dimension analysis visual attention simulation explored fo...

We prove, assuming Greenberg’s conjecture, that the ordinary eigencurve is Gorenstein at an intersection point between the Eisenstein family and the cuspidal locus. As a corollary, we obtain new results on Sharifi’s conjecture. This result is achieved by constructing a universal ordinary pseudodeformation ring and proving an R = T result.

the notion of vague ideals in pseudo mv-algebras is introduced,and several properties are investigated. conditions for a vague set to be avague ideal are provided. conditions for a vague ideal to be implicative aregiven. characterizations of (implicative, prime) vague ideals are discussed.the smallest vague ideal containing a given vague set is established. primeand implicative extension proper...

We further study the filter theory of pseudo-BL algebras.We give some equivalent conditions of filter, normal filter and Boolean filter. We introduce the notion of pseudo MV-filter, pseudo-G filter and characterize Boolean algebras, pseudo-MV algebras and pseudo Gödel algebras (i.e. Gödel algebras) in pseudo-BL algebras. We establish the connections between BCC-algebras, pseudo-BCK algebras, ps...

We consider two SUSY-breaking hidden sectors which decouple when their respective couplings to the visible particles are switched off. In such a scenario one expects to find two light fermions: the Goldstino and the pseudo-Goldstino. While the former remains massless in the rigid limit, the latter becomes massive due to radiative effects which we analyze from several different points of view. T...

he therapies of Rivers and Yealland represented the two modes of English psychiatric modernism which would affect women both inside and outside the asylum from the 1920s to the 1960s: psychoanalysis, which offered the twentieth century's most influential theory of femininity and female sexuality; and traditional medical psychiatry, which made rapid advances in scientific knowledge and technolog...
