Description

Explore the profound nature of gentleness in this thought-provoking work from Fordham University Press. Often misunderstood as simple or passive, gentleness is presented here as a symbolic force with the ability to transform both beings and things. This book examines how gentleness functions as an active passivity, capable of becoming a significant force of symbolic resistance within the realms of ethics and politics. Through a deep look at the thresholds of birth and death, the text investigates the different degrees of intensity that gentleness holds. It connects this unique power to the concept of potential, as understood by the ancients. For readers interested in psychology, psychotherapy, and applied psychology, this book offers a new way to view the transformative power of being gentle in a complex world. It moves beyond surface-level definitions to reveal the secret, life-giving transformations that gentleness can bring to the human experience.
