Literature in the field of mental health?
Manage episode 379868328 series 2986174
I proposed that books allow the individual to learn from their reading experiences and bibliotherapy to be the focus of therapy and self-reflection.
Photography was suggested as a tool for conveying emotion and channels for self-expression. Then, like a vision, I observed a review by Andrew Pettigrew, which combined both aspects together.
The premise of this work was a historical and cultural insight into the Second World War. It demonstrates the power of literature as a deadly weapon during combat, and a War correspondent is still present in any civil or military conflict today.
Hitler’s vision board was the little black book he used to plan and aspire for World domination. He recognised only too well that books could stir patriotic feelings, encourage resistance, and could either aid or hinder the War effort.
This was the time before the mobile phone, television, and the birth of the personal computer were nothing more than a twinkle in your grandfather’s eye.
Newspapers played a crucial role during the Second World War in information dissemination and shaping public opinion. They were powerful communication mediums, serving as the primary news source for the general population.
My late mother told me how her big sister would walk her to school. Ensuring she had all the essentials like her notebook, pencil case, lunch box containing jam sandwich and the compulsory Gas Mask before leaving the house.
I wonder what she would have thought about face covering during COVID-19; she probably had said, "I've seen it all before".
Meanwhile, the photograph of the bombed Holland House Library is particularly surreal. Amongst the devastation, there is hope. Are the suited gentlemen portraying the British stiff upper lip?
After all, the building could be replaced after the War, but the literature remains for those returning home from the frontline and trenches to admire. Even without words, it was able to shape public opinion.
