Sommario/riassunto |
|
This provocative book examines the representation of characters of mixed African and European descent in the works of African American and European American writers of the 19th century. The importance of mulatto figures as agents of ideological exchange in the American literary tradition has yet to receive sustained critical attention. Going beyond Sterling Brown's melodramatic stereotype of the mulatto as ""tragic figure,"" Cassandra Jackson's close study of nine works of fiction shows how the mulatto |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Brief and acute psychotic disorders with a short duration and a generally good prognosis have long intrigued psychiatrists. Although |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
they are included in internationally accepted diagnostic systems, understanding of these disorders remains minimal. This book is the first comprehensive overview of the clinical features, biology, course and long-term outcome of brief and acute psychoses. The authors review the world literature on the topic and they also present data from their own longitudinal study - the most complete investigation of this group of disorders so far conducted. The book concludes with considerations of the nosological status of brief and acute psychoses and their impact on our understanding of the continuum of psychotic and affective disorders. |
