For guidelines, see the "Submissions" page: http://www.janushead.org/jhguidelines.cfm ~*~*~*~ JANUS HEAD RECOMMENDS Two new publications by Robert D. Romanyshyn: WAYS OF THE HEART: Essays Toward an Imaginal Psychology http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0971367116/janushead "Each of the essays of this book explores the intricacies of the currents of the heart, developing the vocabulary for one's own voice rather than the speaking for soul that characterizes most psychology. The life of the soul in this book shines through the intersecting labyrinths of phenomenology, depth psychology, and poetry. Perhaps the most important of the disciplines for this work is phenomenology because it assures that our author never falls into theorizing about the world but is committed to letting the inner qualities of the things of the world speak for themselves. The fundamental tenant of this book is that we are here to learn to listen." Robert Sardello, Director, The School of Spiritual Psychology "Every time I read the work of Robert Romanyshyn I am touched by his honesty, imagination, originality and depth of vision. His psychological insight and poetic sensibility resonate with the force and profundity of a man who lives a full and soulful life." Stanton Marlon, Ph.D., ABPP Director, C.G. Jung Institute Analyst Training Program of Pittsburgh, and Author and editor of "Salt and the Alchemical Soul" and "Fire in the Stone: The Alchemy of Desire" MIRROR AND METAPHOR: Images and Stories of Psychological Life http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0971367108/janushead "This brilliant and lucid book, now available in the second edition, takes us into genuinely new territory. It revises our ideas of psychology and science, and it offers original thoughts on metaphor. It is a text thwich anyone seriously itnerested in the broader reaches of psychology should read, and from which every reader will profit." Edward S. Casey, Professor of Philosophy, SUNY at Stony Brook "In this provocative book, Robert Romanyshyn writes of metaphor with the precision and sensitivity of both philosopher and poet. His argument for the essentially paradoxical nature of experience is a powerful antidote to the literalism of our day." Louise Cowan, Professor Emeritus of Literature, University of Dallas "There are less than a handful of individuals who have the capacity to bring truly creative thought to the field of psychology and whose writing on the subject is both original and therapeutic. Robert Romanyshyn is one of those individuals. His writing keeps soul open, flexible, mobile, and able to resonate with depth." Robert Sardello, Author of "Love and the World" "Romanyshyn explores the assumptions regarding person, others, body, and world, that are the cornerstones of scientific psychology, and he compellingly dissolves these in terms of the metaphors of our cultural history. In doing so he articulates the irreducibly metaphorical character of psychological life and opens the possibility of a phenomenological depth psychology. This little book is a classic in phenomenological psychology and metabletics; it is essential reading for anyone concerned with the meaning and direction of psychology." Roger Brooke, Ph.D. Professor of Psychology, Duquesne University, and author of "Jung and Phenomenology" ~*~*~*~ Thank you, The Editors
