Nevertheless, we use it in many contexts to discipline others, impede personal development, regulate participation in communities, and instil in others commonly accepted norms and values. All these uses of shame suggest to some that it is a phenomenon with positive attributes, despite its darker sides. Many who study shame do so from the vantage point of a single scholarly discipline. This book is an exception. Its authors approach shame from multiple perspectives, seeking a more nuanced picture of its various roles in human life and its impact on social interaction. This book explores shame from an interdisciplinary perspective that looks into psychology, philosophy, evolutionary theory, theology and religious studies, and moral theory. The theoretical insights are then applied to understand shame's workings in relation to embodiment, religion, and morality. Hence, Shame's Unwelcome Interruption and Responsive Movements. Body, Religion, Morality - an Interdisciplinary Study will be of value to anyone who is interested in approaching shame from a comprehensive, scholarly perspective.Shame’s Unwelcome Interruption and Responsive Movements Shame’s Unwelcome Interruption and Responsive Movements Self-perceptionSelf-perception.158.1Henriksen Jan-Olav1269140Mesel TerjeNjHacINjHaclBOOK9910476898403321Shame's Unwelcome Interruption and Responsive Movements3013974UNINA05123nam 2201045 a 450 991078317280332120230124181549.01-4175-2263-197866133039361-283-30393-00-520-93679-510.1525/9780520936799(CKB)1000000000008115(EBL)224219(OCoLC)475930187(SSID)ssj0000262505(PQKBManifestationID)11225314(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000262505(PQKBWorkID)10270932(PQKB)11477722(MiAaPQ)EBC224219(DE-B1597)520372(OCoLC)55857253(DE-B1597)9780520936799(Au-PeEL)EBL224219(CaPaEBR)ebr10058526(CaONFJC)MIL330393(EXLCZ)99100000000000811520020227d2003 ub 0engurun#---|u||utxtccrThe trouble with nature[electronic resource] sex in science and popular culture /Roger N.

Lancaster provides the definitive rebuttal of evolutionary just-so stories about men, women, and the nature of desire in this spirited exposé of the heterosexual fables that pervade popular culture, from prime-time sitcoms to scientific theories about the so-called gay gene. Lancaster links the recent resurgence of biological explanations for gender norms, sexual desires, and human nature in general with the current pitched battles over sexual politics. Ideas about a "hardwired" and immutable human nature are circulating at a pivotal moment in human history, he argues, one in which dramatic changes in gender roles and an unprecedented normalization of lesbian and gay relationships are challenging received notions and commonly held convictions on every front. The Trouble with Nature takes on major media sources-the New York Times, Newsweek-and widely ballyhooed scientific studies and ideas to show how journalists, scientists, and others invoke the rhetoric of science to support political positions in the absence of any real evidence. Lancaster also provides a novel and dramatic analysis of the social, historical, and political backdrop for changing discourses on "nature," including an incisive critique of the failures of queer theory to understand the social conflicts of the moment. By showing how reductivist explanations for sexual orientation lean on essentialist ideas about gender, Lancaster invites us to think more deeply and creatively about human acts and social relations.Sex in popular cultureScience newsPseudoscienceSexual orientationPhysiological aspectsbiological explanations.expose.gay and lesbian.gender and sexuality.gender norms.gender roles.heterosexual fables.history of sexuality.human nature.journalists.lgbtq.men and women.nature.nonfiction.popular culture.primetime sitcoms.science.scientific studies.scientific theories.scientists.sex.sexual desire.sexual normalization.sexual orientation.sexual politics.sexual relationships.social history.social relations.social sciences.textbooks.Sex in popular culture.Science news.Pseudoscience.Sexual orientationPhysiological aspects.306.7Lancaster Roger N1479751MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910783172803321The trouble with nature3779840UNINA
