CZY BRANDON SULLIVAN POWINIEN SIĘ WSTYDZIĆ? GRANICA MIĘDZY PATOLOGIĄ A ŻYCIEM
Journal Title: Kultura i Społeczeństwo - Year 2018, Vol 62, Issue 2
Abstract
THE BORDER BETWEEN PATHOLOGY AND LIFE This article contains an attempt to determine the role of psychotherapy in constructing contemporary intimate relations in the postmodernist culture of individualism. The author bases her reflections on the hero of Steve McQueen’s film Shame. The movie’s protagonist, Brandon Sullivan, and his sister, are metaphors of such relations. The author asks whether psychotherapy, in desiring to help create proper models of attachment, contributes to the pathologization of contemporary ties and their culture, and whether it is a source of suffering where there should be room to respect free choice.
