Il Nostro Inquilino Segreto: Psicologia e Psicoterapia della Coscienza
(Our Secret Tenant: Psychology and Psychotherapy of Consciousness)
Alessandro Salvini and Roberto Bottini (eds.) (Ponte alle Grazie) (in Italian)
In this book are the contributions of an international group of scholars, constituted of researchers and clinicians inspired by the work of Julian Jaynes. The authors explore the plurality of the possible configurations of consciousness in its relationship with language and action. Consciousness isn’t something that exists ‘by itself’, a psychic object, but the name we give to a class of interactive operations. Among which, for example, the reflex of the relationships we entertain with our selves, with others, and with the world — a systemic ‘dialogue’ that contributes to shape the different ways of being and feeling conscious.

La Natura Diacronica della Coscienza
(The Diachronic Nature of Consciousness)
Julian Jaynes (Adelphi) (in Italian)
In poche, densissime, appassionate pagine, la tesi molto poco ortodossa su cui si fonda l’intera opera di Jaynes: la coscienza non è data da sempre, e per sempre, ma – come tutto – ha una storia.
