Identification (literature)

From Wikipedia

Identification refers to the automatic, subconscious psychological process in which an individual becomes like or closely associates themselves with another person by adopting one or more of the others' perceived personality traits, physical attributes, or some other aspect of their identity. The concept of identification was founded by psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud in the 1920’s, and has since been expanded on and applied in psychology, social studies, media studies, and literary and film criticism. In literature, identification most often refers to the audience identifying with a fictional character, however it can also be employed as a narrative device whereby one character identifies with another character within the text itself.

On April 20, 1950, CIA Director Roscoe Hillenkoetter approved BLUEBIRD

Not long afterward, his representative arranged to inspect the Nuremberg Tribunal records to see if they contained anything useful to BLUEBIRD.

According to a CIA psychologist who looked over the German research, the Agency did not find much of specific help. "It was a real horror story, but we learned what human beings were capable of," he recalls.

"There were some experiments on pain, but they were so mixed up with sadism as not to be useful.... How the victim coped was very interesting."

"Requiem For Methuselah" [ Star Trek ]

Original Airdate: 14 Feb, 1969

MCCOY: Instant tissue regeneration coupled with some perfect form of biological renewal. You learned that you were immortal and

FLINT: And to conceal it. To live some portion of a life, to pretend to age and then move on before my nature was suspected.









2001: A Space Odyssey (by Arthur C. Clarke, Amazon Kindle version) Chapter 21

There was a chorus of "good-byes," and the vision screen went blank. How strange to think, Poole told himself, that all this had happened more than an hour ago; by now his family would have dispersed again and its members would be miles from home. But in a way that time lag, though it could be frustrating, was also a blessing in disguise. Like every man of his age, Poole took it for granted that he could talk instantly, to anyone on Earth, whenever he pleased. Now that was no longer true, the psychological impact was profound. He had moved into a new dimension of remoteness, and almost all emotional links had been stretched beyond the yield point.

Daily Princetonian, Volume 38, Number 11, 13 March 1914

MENTAL PROCESSES ARE RESULT OF MECHANISMS

Says Dr. Stewart Paton in His Fourth Lecture on Study of Human Activities

The fourth of Dr. Stewart Paton's lectures on the Study of Human Activities in relation to Social, Educational and Ethical Problems was delivered yesterday afternoon in Guyot Hall. The particular aspect of the general topic presented was "Synthetic and Inhibitory Mental Mechanisms."

In introducing the subject Dr. Paton defined and discussed the two fundamental processes of all mental activity namely the synthetic and inhibitory. All our most complicated mental processes are the result of these mechanisms, so that what we call sense-perception, intelligence and volition are really the product of these. When we come to the study of such an intricate problem as the will, we greatly simplify the difficulty if we forget that there is any such specific function. It is in reality a complex of many functions.

Mistaken Idea of Justice

Unfortunately all our ideas of justice have been based upon what we think people ought to be rather than on what they actually are, so that our whole penal system rests largely upon retribution rather than on any attempt to assist the individual to find the level at which he is capable of adjusting his life, and to train him in the acquirement of good habits of self-adjustment.

A similar condition prevails in educational methods as is notably evidenced in many systems of examination in which the effort is apparently directed toward discovering the mass of information the student has acquired rather than toward ascertaining with what success the student is solving the problem of the adjustment of himself to his environment and conditions.

"The Paradise Syndrome" [ Star Trek ]

Original Airdate: Oct 4, 1968

KIRK: It's only the wind and the thunder.

MIRAMANEE: I act like a stupid child. I have nothing to fear. You are here. (she looks outside) It is time.

KIRK: Time?

MIRAMANEE: To go to the temple. The people will be waiting.

KIRK: Why?

MIRAMANEE: To save them.

KIRK: But it's only the wind. The wind can't harm them.

MIRAMANEE: The wind is only the beginning. Soon the sky will darken, the lake will go wild, and the earth will tremble. Only you can save us.

Captain KIRK: But I can't do anything about the wind or the sky.

MIRAMANEE: If we don't go now, it will be too late. You must go inside the temple and make the blue flame come out.

Captain KIRK: I don't know how to get inside the temple.

MIRAMANEE: But you are a god.
