Abstract
This paper discusses how libido becomes invested in learning according to Klein and critically assesses her account. Four of the five subjects from Klein' study are used to demonstrate the impact that their castration fear and sexual symbolic meanings, as depicted by Klein, have on the child's ability to adapt to school and the tasks which they are to perform there. It concludes that the libido becomes invested in learning according to Klein through the role of sublimation.
From the Paper
"In her paper 'The Role Of The School In The Libidinal Development Of Children' (1924: 312-331), Melanie Klien claims that through psychoanalysis she discovered that her five subjects (Felix, Fritz, Grete, Ernst and Lisa) expressed an aversion to school and the tasks that would be undertaken whilst in attendance. Klein attributed this aversion to the castration fear. To the children, school presented as a rigid, strict environment, completely dissimilar to the feminine, nurturing environment provided by the mother at home. This created anxiety for the child and unlocking their unconscious revealed the extent to which sublimated libidinal instincts influenced this aversion (1924: 312). "

Abstract
This paper is about the underlying themes of Naomi Klein?s best-selling "No Logo" (2000), the ?book that became a movement? ? a passionate anti-globalization manifesto. The paper looks at the underlying themes of Fordism and post-Fordism, consumer culture and globalization, and analyzes Klein?s arguments while drawing on a variety of sources, both literary, -- William Gibson, Aldous Huxley and George Orwell, and academic --Kennedy & Cohen plus contrasting Klein?s socialist agenda with libertarian principles.
From the Paper
"In No Logo, Naomi Klein analyses the effects of modern advertising on Western society and culture in the late 90s. She argues, for the most part, against its far-reaching effects on everyday life, as well as on the ethical issues associated with the move to a post-Fordist society, where production takes place in third world countries under what is, in effect, 19th century conditions."

Abstract
Kleine-Levin Syndrome is a rare sleep disorder. Its characteristics include excessive sleep (hypersomnolence which can reach up to twenty hours per day), compulsive over-eating and a highly uninhibited sex drive. While awake, individuals with KLS can be irritable, demonstrate a lack of emotional response and can be quite lethargic. Confusion, disorientation and hallucinations also accompany the disease. The cyclical effects of KLS may be present for days and weeks and generally taper off in frequency and intensity as sufferers age. While no precise cause has been identified, KLS is suspected to be an inherited autosomal dominant genetic trait. What is possible, is that the KLS symptoms are related to a malfunctioning hypothalamus. It is the purpose of this paper to examine the symptoms, treatment and effects of Kleine-Levin Syndrome on its sufferers.

"Introduction
Calvin Klein's fashion house participates in a number of different markets, including fragrances, men's and women's clothing (jeans, casual wear, formal wear and intimate apparel) and shoes. His marketing campaigns are noted for their ability to shock, and sometimes for their ambiguous messages. Despite the controversy which surrounds his marketing (or perhaps because of it), Klein has built a fashion empire known around the world. This research considers the Calvin Klein organization, its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats, and three of its target markets, and how it markets to those segments. Finally, recommendations are made about how the company might continue to market successfully to these segments in the future.

From the Paper
"This research examines the manner in which six theorists of object relations conceptualize the ego defense known as splitting. The research will set forth the background for the object-relations treatment of the splitting defense and then discuss the views of each theorist in turn.
The concept of ego-defenses has been connected to psychoanalytical theory almost from the earliest days of the discipline. Freud cites the psychopathology implicit when "the boundary lines between the ego and the external world become uncertain or in which they are actually drawn incorrectly . . . subject to disturbances[,] and the boundaries of the ego are not constant" (Freud, 1961, p. 13). Kernberg (1986, p. 352) refers to Freud's link of ego splitting to pathology, as well as his definition of ego splitting as "the co-existence of two..."

Abstract
The research sets forth the background for the object-relations treatment of the splitting defense and then discusses the views of each theorist in turn. The theorist mentioned are Melanie Klein, Michael Balint, D.W. Winnicott, W.R.D. Fairbairn, Wilfred Bion and Edith Jacobson.
From the Paper
"The concept of ego-defenses has been connected to psychoanalytical theory almost from the earliest days of the discipline. Freud cites the psychopathology implicit when "the boundary lines between the ego and the external world become uncertain or in which they are actually drawn incorrectly . . . subject to disturbances[,] and the boundaries of the ego are not constant" (Freud, 1961, p. 13). Kernberg (1986, p. 352) refers to Freud's link of ego splitting to pathology, as well as his definition of ego splitting as "the co-existence of two contradictory dispositions throughout life . . . which did not influence each other." The Freudian notion of splitting is also connected to the Freudian structural hypothesis, or designation of the ego as the conscious mediator between the id (unconscious drives) and superego (social/parental regulator of life). While the Freudian conception of the ego has not been strictly adhered to by subsequent generations of psychology theorists, the notion that ego functions are more process than constant entity and entail the whole range of psychological conflicts, has survived. In object-relations psychology, a common thread of theoretical discussion is the quality and content of connections and distinctions between the ego and its myriad "objects" of perception (accurate or not), scrutiny, or encounter, whether these objects are material structures, social structures, or other human beings."

Emily Dickinson, 2007.
This paper examines the life and poetry of Emily Dickinson, a quiet and reclusive female.
1,783 words (approx. 7.1 pages), 6 sources, MLA, $ 57.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper discusses how the style and content of Dickinson's poems are unique to her life-long torment and struggle with pain, sadness and depression. The paper describes Dickinson's lack of a relationship with her mother and lack of interaction with anyone else. The paper looks at the psychological theories of Melanie Klein and Julia Kristeva who attribute Dickinson's poetic greatness to her lack of an emotional bond with her mother while still a child. The paper concludes that if Emily Dickinson would have had a strong mother-daughter bond, or if she had been a mother herself, her poetic style and content would have been radically different.
From the Paper
"Although all humans experience feelings of pain, sadness and depression, females experience these emotions at a different level then males. The reason for this discrepancy is varied and may include such factors as the status of women in society, the role of motherhood, and differing hormonal balances. This role of pain, sadness and depression greatly influences the way women see the world and interact with it. Furthermore, it greatly effects their emotional and artistic expressions."
"One of the great poets of our time is Emily Dickinson, a quiet and reclusive female. Her poetry stands out from her male counterparts of her era because of its unique style and ability to express these gendered emotions of pain, sadness and depression."

Object Relations, 2006.

Abstract
This paper discusses how Klein, unlike Freud, believed that the death instinct was developed at birth as a means of destroying elements in the environment that created tension. Freud, by contrast, believed that the death instinct was developed over time and was not possible from birth. Yet, Klein argued that every human being was capable of existing with two primary forms of emotion. The paper further discusses how these forms consisted of loving and caring, which were opposed by envy, hate and destruction. Klein believed that the death instinct was related to good and bad objects. Klein used the concept of the mother who breast feeds her infant as an example of how the death instinct is formulated in infancy, and therefore, becomes a natural process in the human emotional realm. The infant views the breast as a warm source of nourishment that if fulfilling, making the object good.
