Anton Boisen: Madness, Mysticism, and the Origins of Clinical Pastoral Education, Paperback - Sean J. Labat

Detalii:

In Anton Boisen: Madness, Mysticism, and the Origins of Clinical Pastoral Education, Sean J. LaBat provides a critical re-assessment of Anton Boisens life and work. Based in thorough archival research, LaBat argues that Boisen, who suffered from intermittent severe mental illness, was a creative visionary, a mystic who re-imagined pastoral care and envisioned possibilities for the institutionalized other than shame and stigma. He shows how Boisen elucidated new possibilities in patient-centered health care, community care for the mentally ill, and reconciliation and dialogue between religion and science. Boisen explored the borderland of madness and mysticism, illness and inspiration, and practiced an interdisciplinary approach to his craft that is surprisingly modern and more relevant to the practice of medicine and the practice of religion than ever before.Sean J. LaBat is a clinical staff chaplain at Central Virginia Veterans Administration Medical Center in Richmond, Virginia.Book specifications:Dimensions: 229 x 152Author: Sean J.
