Tekst poświęcony jest roli rytuału i sztuki w pokonywaniu jednostkowego cierpienia i społecznych kryzysów. Choć niepopularny we współczesnej kulturze analgetyków, nastawionej na uzyskiwanie szybkich efektów, proces rytualny (jak pokazują za Turnerem Maria Mendel i Tomasz Szkudlarek), jest w swej istocie tożsamy z doświadczeniem kryzysu. Przechodzenie rytuałów ma więc potencjał transgresji, przekraczania sytuacji trudnych dla jednostek oraz społeczeństw. Omawiam to na przykładach przemian narracji porodowych oraz sposobów radzenia sobie z traumą przez Martina Millera, syna słynnej psychoterapeutki Alice Miller. Inną cechą współczesnej kultury jest odrzucenie sacrum, co pokazuję na przykładzie usuwania teozoficznych wątków z biografii Marii Montessori i marginalizowania szkół waldorfskich Rudolfa Steinera, które wyrastają z kryzysu zachodniej racjonalności. Odtwarzane i zapośredniczone przez sztukę rytuały, wykorzystywane są w szkołach waldorfskich w celach wychowawczych i rozwojowych i zgodnie powyższymi teoriami mogą mieć potencjał pokonywania kryzysów związanych z dojrzewaniem.

In the following article Benjamin Lloyd uses the work of the noted Swiss psychologist Alice Miller to propose a new archetype – ‘the wounded actor’, a person in the throes of a narcissistic disorder, as defined by Miller in her book The Drama of the Gifted Child. He suggests that conventional actor training will not help the wounded actor, but that the re-introduction of spirituality into the acting-class curriculum may do so. In this light he looks at Stanislavsky's writings about spirituality, focusing on the chapter in An Actor Prepares called ‘Communion’. Linking Stanislavsky's spirituality to the writings and thought of Leo Tolstoy, he explores the reasons why the spiritual nature of Stanislavsky's work has not been generally explored in the West, and suggests some ways in which acting teachers may introduce spiritual concerns into their curricula. Benjamin Lloyd teaches at Villanova University. His The Actor's Way: a Journal of Self-Discovery in Letters is due for publication later this year by Allworth Press, New York, and he is currently facilitating a workshop on possible intersections between Quaker spiritual practice and theatre-making called ‘Revival: Meetings for Theatre’.

This edition of the journal sees the launch of a new regular trainee-orientated section. Over the course of a rolling five-year cycle we will be publishing a series of articles which will cover the ‘Emergency Presentations’, ‘The Top 20 Common Medical Presentations’, ‘Other Important Presentations’ and ‘Practical Procedures’ outlined in the curriculum for Acute Internal Medicine 2009. Articles will take the form of a problem-based review that uses a brief clinical case (real or fictional) and its development to illustrate the assessment, differential diagnosis and management of the common presentations to Acute Medicine. We hope these reviews will highlight recent evidence-based guidelines and provide readers with clinically useful ‘pearls and pitfalls’ from specialist experience that can be easily applied to future practice. Although many of these reviews will be commissioned directly by the editors of the journal, if you do have a particular interest in producing a review relating to a specific curriculum topic, please contact me at [email protected]. Similarly, I would welcome any early feedback relating to the content and format of this new journal section. This edition features reviews of the management of GI bleeding and paraplegia which I hope will be of interest to readers of various levels of seniority. Dr Joe Wileman has also produced a ‘Journal Watch’ section, which we plan to repeat in future editions (again contact me directly if you are interested in undertaking this for a future edition) and there is a ‘trainee update’ from Alice Miller.

The paper aims to recall the most important works and theory of Alice Miller – the psychotherapist, who devoted her entire professional life to exposing violence hidden under the guise of upbringing. The study briefly introduces the biography of Alice Miller, which became available to readers only after her death, thanks to the book of her son. The next part discusses the views of Alice Miller regarding upbringing and the impact of children's experiences and suppressing feelings associated with them on violence in interpersonal relationships
