Theorizing menstruation
Authors: Owen Lara 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This chapter explores feminist theory to show the ways in which capitalism and feminism have shaped menstrual experience through both conflict and collusion and why it took mainstream feminism fifty years to engage with menstruation. It also introduces the socioeconomic concepts that frame the new research data in this book. The first half of the chapter examines the underlying beliefs and agendas—the politics—behind the tangled relationship of liberalism and feminism with the patriarchal power dynamics that are the backbone of menstrual oppression and delineates how other streams of feminism have variously ignored or conceptualized menstruation over the past half century. The second half of the chapter introduces a new socioeconomic theoretical framework for understanding menstrual organization, drawn from concepts such as women’s transgression, enclosure, and respectability, developing the work of two feminist theorists: Silvia Federici and Beverley Skeggs. This new framework can be summed up through the motif of the menstrual commons, understood in terms of menstruation as common experience and menstrual innovation as source of egalitarian redistribution. The menstrual commons gives us a way to understand both the resistance to the dismantling of menstrual stigma and the liberation this dismantling represents—because menstrual stigma and its mechanisms of mobilization are both classed and sexed, influencing boundaries, capitals, and labour.
Habitus and ethos in the remaking of menstruation
Authors: Owen Lara 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Historically it has been seen as ‘proper’ and ‘moral’ to dissemble around menstruation, to pretend it is not happening, to go along with its structural absence. In both case studies detailed in this book, this longstanding moral position was challenged and changed. In its place, it became a matter of individual and organizational pride to talk about menstruation openly, to be more sustainable, more competent, and more kind through introducing new practices. Furthermore, this new version of a moral code, of a public good, was intrinsically linked to social, economic, cultural, and symbolic capitals that enhanced local, national, and international status and were entangled with situational status. This chapter explores how this disruption of conventional silencing through respectability codes was supported and enabled in the two case studies. A main finding was that a new configuration surrounding the menstruating body was supported in the workplace study by a shared community ethos of solidarity held by the organization, and in the cup study by a shared community ethos that centred environmentalism and convenience-based feminism as primary values. Adoption of the menstrual innovation concerned was supported by agreement with a bundle of values, in a peer group in a specific context. This combination of supportive ethos (values) embedded within a distinct habitus (situated position) enabled the process of uptake and had the effect of opening up conversation and allowing kind, considerate and non-shaming dialogue, in a marked departure from the silencing and stigma of old.
Deepening solidarity and expanding permissions
Authors: Owen Lara 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This chapter explores ways in which menstrual innovations deepened solidarity and extended permissions in both studies. When staff in the workplace study developed the concept of the permission field to describe the organizational changes wrought by the menstrual policy, they were vividly expressing the lived sense of a boundary shift. They were in effect using the language of the commons, the original field for grazing and meeting that was open to all. The new permission field extended to non-menstruating staff, who also felt more permission to ‘bring their bodies to work’. The perceived needs of the body became easier to articulate and allow for. Such articulation extended not only into organizational meetings and discussions, but to international mainstream media. In the cup study, participants did not have the same level of interpersonal solidarity as operated at Coexist. However, despite this lack of direct organizational support to extend normative permissions, such was the power of the shift in perception brought about by engaging with the menstrual cup, and the support they garnered from friends, online groups, and non-menstruating partners and families, that participants also experienced a change in the permission field, feeling part of a social context that was radical and expanded. These changes to permissions included the perception that they were now permitted to have less work to do surrounding menstruation, including less anxiety in its management. They spoke of having an altered embodied experience of their own blood and anatomy, which was liberating and extended their sense of embodied rightness.
The Homeric Doloneia
Authors: Tsagalis Christos C. 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
The Doloneia is the most controversial book of the Iliad, its authenticity having been doubted since antiquity. Modern scholars are divided between those who regard it as a major interpolation by a later poet who was trained in the technique of epic composition and those who see it as the earliest manifestation of the very ancient theme of lochos. However, the first claim assumes the stylistic homogeneity of book 10, while the second sweeps out dictional and thematic difficulties by attributing them to the theme of ambush that is weakly represented in the extant corpus of archaic Greek epic. By applying sophisticated interpretive tools such as intratextual association, intertextual allusion, and oral neoanalysis, this book maintains that Iliad 10 is thematically consonant with the rest of the Iliad and that it has evolved from an earlier Iliadic version after the addition of the Rhesus episode, which did not circulate as an independent composition but formed part of lost oral epic poetry with cyclic features that focused on the events after the death of Achilles.
Putative Clues for the Hector-Version of Iliad 10
Authors: Tsagalis Christos C. 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Chapter 5 surveys the text of the Iliad, the ancient scholia, and the Mythographus Homericus for traces of the earlier form of such a plotline. As far as Iliadic evidence is concerned, six passages are examined that allude to a version in which Hector was the target of the spying mission. The fact that these references cover a wide range of text, from book 8 to book 24, shows that the earlier version had been part of the Iliadic epic tradition for a considerable amount of time and that it had established itself as a significant part of the plot. Traces of a Hector-version can also be found in the ancient scholia and the Mythographus Homericus. A case is made for ancient references to such a putative version—a case adduced after careful examination of the Homeric text.
Station and Orientation
Authors: Fowler Elizabeth 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Chapter 2 completes Part One by expanding Chapter 1’s treatment of Chaucer’s gate to an architectural exploration of the garden-temple complex, an ancient and global type of landscape built for pilgrimage, with a hortus conclusus [enclosed garden] at its center. Poems too are stations and borrow their ductus from such complexes: Seamus Heaney’s “Lightenings viii,” set at the monastic site Clonmacnoise, invokes several different meanings of “station,” pertaining to both place and bodily action, inviting readers to an experience of the marvelous. A pilgrim at Clonmacnoise similarly undertakes scripted spiritual exercises so as to arrive at a place and a state. Poems considered here as stations that evoke the familiar configuration of a well and thorn tree include Heaney’s “Clearances VIII,” focused on mourning; the fourteenth- or fifteenth-century verse copied into a manuscript at Magdalen College, Oxford, “At a sprynge wel”; John Donne’s “Twicknam garden,” which offers readers injury and balm through the undertaking of an erotic pilgrimage; and Heaney’s “The Wishing Tree.” All embody a ductility created with linguistic deixis as well as with the customs of landscape use. Stations are instruments of access; art habituates the bodily experience of those who take up its invitations, bringing us to new states of being in a mixed, performative, and orienting spatiality.
“A!”
Authors: Fowler Elizabeth 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Part Three, Virtual Pleasure and Pain, concerns other crucial ways art moves us: through ductile appeals to our senses and emotions. Chapter 5 begins by considering Antonio’s sadness (in Middle English “sadness” is sensation and demeanor rather than emotion) at the opening of The Merchant of Venice, resisting the pressure from friends and critics to diagnose its causes and classify it as an emotion. The play invites us to stay in the prediagnostic state of mere sensation and its multiple possibilities as long as possible. In Chaucer’s Knight’s Tale, Palamon’s sensational cry, “A!”, initiates a similar debate as to how his utterance and state should be interpreted. He rejects diagnosis and insists on “romynge,” and, below his prison in the walled garden, so does the object of his vision, Emelye. The roaming they practice is incited and nurtured by their built environments. The gap between bodily experience and language exposed by such poets may be deplorable, in that we are never able truly to describe our experiences to others, but that gap crucially drives the never-ending process of making language accountable to all our various, evolving needs. A primary function of art’s revelation of that gap is to invite us to learn to move more freely within it, seeking satisfaction.
The Reformation of the Senses
Authors: Fowler Elizabeth 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Poetry both provokes direct sensory experience and entangles that experience with the abstract, linguistic representation of the emotions. George Herbert’s lyric “Deniall” exemplifies how verse can exploit the gap between sensation and meaning, drawing us into the posture and practice of hearing (even as we speak) and creating a receptiveness to the sacred. Chaucer’s “Second Nun’s Tale” operates similarly but at a more ambitious scale, tying the reader’s virtual pilgrimage (to the church of Saint Cecelia in Trastevere, Rome) to a radical, historical transformation of the senses that comes to require new familial, political, and religious arrangements. This disruptive, alien poem is an instrument for becoming committed to extreme, paradoxical practices of sensory suppression and inflammation: bloody cleanliness, chaste marriage, domestic ecclesiology, and decapitated bodily integrity. Such poetry reveals the capacity of art, by means of virtual sensation, to reform our understanding of sensory experience and to intervene in the history of the emotions. This chapter concludes Part Three, Virtual Pleasure and Pain. The groundwork of an account of art’s habituation is laid down in these first three parts and will be built upon more complexly in Part Five, after Part Four’s study of elegy.
Psychedelics and moral psychology: the case of forgiveness
Authors: Chopra Samir , Letheby Chris 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Several authors have recently suggested that classic psychedelics might be safe and effective agents of moral enhancement. This raises the question: can we learn anything interesting about the nature of moral experience from a close examination of transformative psychedelic experiences? The interdisciplinary enterprise of philosophical psychopathology attempts to learn about the structure and function of the ‘ordinary’ mind by studying the radically altered mind. By analogy, this chapter argues that we can gain knowledge about the everyday moral life by studying extraordinary experiences of altered moral cognition and experience. A specific class of cases is examined: experiences of forgiveness induced by psychedelics. It is argued that close attention to such experiences reveals the importance of thought/emotion coherence and dissonance in the moral life and vindicates some heterodox ideas about moral phenomenology and psychology.
Why Did Bouazizi Kill Himself?
Authors: Bargu Banu 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This chapter interprets “Why Did Banerjee Kill Himself?” by poet Nazım Hikmet to shed light on a parallel question: Why did Mohammed Bouazizi kill himself? It juxtaposes the deaths of the fictional Banerjee and real Bouazizi to reveal the radical distance between them: while both die by their own hand and have been presented as “martyrs” of revolution, Bouazizi’s context is characterized by the absence of the Hegelo-Marxist philosophy of history, which thoroughly permeates Hikmet’s representation of Banerjee. This contrast, marking a shift from an early twentieth-century moment defined by revolutionary mass mobilizations by the oppressed peoples of the “East” to contemporary self-destructive performances emanating from the “Global South,” sets the stage for the challenge of the book: to interpret the meanings and political implications of disembodiment in the absence of a teleology of history or the success of a collective movement that may vindicate it, even if retroactively.
Corporeal Critique
Authors: Bargu Banu 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This chapter moves from the metaphysics of the subject to the “underground history” of the body (i.e., the somatic history of suffering delineated by Horkheimer and Adorno as the crucial problem for materialism but left unwritten by them). Engaging a constellation of thinkers who have sought to theorize the body not only as the site of suffering but also as the source of resistance, the chapter develops the concept of “corporeal critique.” This concept denotes a broad category of embodied practices that enact defiance and refusal in response to and beyond the Eurocentric frame of subjectivity. Bringing Marcel Mauss, Helmuth Plessner, and Franz Fanon into conversation, the chapter theorizes bodily agency under conditions of crisis, especially crisis precipitated by the violence of colonial domination. It argues for a conception of expressive agency vested in the body, a conception that cannot be captured by intentional, instrumental accounts of agency.
Globetrotting Mormon Women Artists and the Art of Travel, 1900–1950
Authors: Belnap Heather 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This chapter knits a rich history of Latter-day Saint women artists who traveled internationally to develop their skills. These women carved out territory in a male-dominated profession to contribute to the shared image of LDS doctrine and scripture during the first half of the twentieth century. The chapter analyzes the nexus of gender, travel, and artistic production to show how Minerva Teichert, Rose Hartwell, Olive Belnap Jenson, Flora Fisher, Mabel Frazer, and Verla Birrell, among others, fashioned individual identities while contributing to the world of Mormon art. The case of each artist provides a distinctive account of foundational efforts to shape Latter-day Saint identity, and consequently gender and class.
Latter-day Saint Temple Design: Aspirations of Grandeur and Tempering Restraints
Authors: Probert Josh Edward 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This chapter situates temple-building as a core artistic expression of Latter-day Saints that provides not only a space for the Lord to manifest himself but also a means by which the Saints work out a hybrid sentiment of republican frugality and Protestant heritage. Temples exhibit an underlying tension between the aesthetic interests of this frugality and earlier visions of ornamentation in the Latter-day Saint faith. These influences served to tame Joseph Smith’s palatial vision of temples’ potential. While never quite reveling in opulence, temples are nonetheless material manifestations of a desire to signify salvation in the next life, while performing religiosity, good taste, and social standing in this one.
Mormon Art and Architecture in Mexico
Authors: Janzen Rebecca 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This chapter addresses how artwork and photography in Mexico showcases the tension between American and Mormon cultural norms, particularly as they are negotiated by Latter-day Saints in Mexico. The chapter observes dress, buildings, and art within photographs and in artistic renderings to note how Mexican Latter-day Saints proudly displayed Indigenous tradition while adopting new religious and cultural forms from American Mormonism. For some the conversion to Mormonism might have signaled economic and social opportunities. For others it offered a contested space to work out the integration of different traditions. Photography provided a space to work out this negotiation, while capturing and recording the very same efforts for future viewers.
George Dibble and Modernism in Utah
Authors: Nelson Glen 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This chapter turns to Mormonism’s fraught relationship with midcentury modernism through the lens of Utah artist George Dibble. The chapter offers a case study in community consciousness, by which any monolithic understanding of Mormon art unravels to show that complicated conversations surrounding artistic identity are in constant tension with institutional authority and social attitudes. This cultural approach analyzes the artworks themselves, but moves beyond them to widen our understanding of the ways art is embedded in local contexts. The ways modernism could be seen as a pejorative or even a death knell for Latter-day Saint artists shed light on how a seminal work acquired by an institution could end up in a trash can.
Group Work PracticeAn Overview
Authors: Knight Carolyn 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This chapter describes the status of group work education, which has seen a steady decline despite the widespread use of the group modality. This underscores the urgent need for this book. The nature of mutual aid—which is unique to group work and is the foundation of its benefits—is explained. Group workers have two sets of clients—the group as a whole and each member—and they understand that they must attend to the behaviors of each. The practitioner’s primary role is to encourage members to support and learn from one another. The author identifies distinct group types and the different ways in which mutual aid is promoted and accomplished in each. The author also discusses the trauma-informed (TI) conceptualization and its relevance for group work practice. This modality is ideally suited to promoting TI principles, which include trust, safety, empowerment, and sensitivity to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Group Work with Fathers Who Are Incarcerated or in Residential Treatment
Authors: Greif Geoffrey L. 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This chapter describes a four-session group work model for fathers who are incarcerated or are in a residential treatment or rehabilitation facility. This model is based on more than 10 years of work with these populations. The first session focuses on introductions and a description from each member about their parenting situation. In the second session, the fathers are asked to describe their family situation growing up, with a focus on what worked for them and what they wished to pass on to their children. The third session centers on their relationships with the women in their life in relation to childrearing. The final session revolves around the messages that society puts out about men’s and women’s roles. Common themes that arise are offered, as are ways to intervene in a group context.
Group Work in a Shelter with Parents Experiencing Homelessness
Authors: Knight Carolyn 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
In this chapter, the author describes group work in a shelter for parents who are homeless. Two different organizational contexts are examined. In one, residents of a 30-day emergency shelter are required to attend daily group meetings, and in the other, residents of a 90-day shelter are required to attend a once-a-week open discussion group if they are in the shelter at the time of the meeting. Common themes that emerge are identified and include members’ experiences with previous trauma, community violence, and systemic marginalization, as well as their frustration and anger at the lack of resources. The author also describes strategies the leader can employ to promote members’ resilience and empowerment, to address members’ concerns about the leader’s ability to be helpful, and to manage disruptive interpersonal dynamics that surface in the group.
Group Work with Asian and Asian American Family Caregivers of Individuals with Dementia
Authors: Lee Youjung , Cook Kelley 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Older immigrant populations are growing rapidly, and the number of family members serving as caregivers for these older adults is increasing as well. This chapter presents approaches to working with immigrant family caregivers of individuals with dementia, focusing on Asian and Asian American family members. Multifaceted needs of these caregivers, ways to provide a culturally responsive psychoeducational support group, and common themes that mental health practitioners need to understand when working with this population are discussed. The proposed support group for immigrant family caregivers includes reviewing information about dementia and treatment, dementia caregiving skills, stress management, and positive aspects of dementia family caregiving. Unique characteristics of the Asian family caregivers that need to be addressed are reviewed, including each immigrant family’s acculturation level, language proficiency, immigration status, and the impact of the Coronavirus. Approaches to termination and evaluation of the group work with Asian immigrant caregivers are presented.
Group Work with Children Who Have Experienced Sexual Abuse
Authors: Offermann Betsy , Beltran Monica , Rollo Cynthia , Davis Sara 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
In this chapter the authors describe group work with children impacted by sexual abuse, addresses clinical and cultural considerations, and identifies common themes and trauma-informed strategies. Group participation normalizes members’ experiences to decrease feelings of isolation, social stigmatization, powerlessness, and betrayal. The authors provide information about the structure of the group, developmental considerations, assessment, issues associated with diversity, equity, and inclusion, therapist stance, co-leadership, termination, and challenges group leaders may face in facilitating this group. Detailed descriptions and clinical examples of structured group interventions are included to increase readers’ understanding of children’s responses to sexual abuse and techniques to build coping skills, promote better communication, and empower members while maintaining a group culture of safety.
The Rainbow Club
Authors: Ovadia Alissa Greif , Baum Jennifer , Mills Ellen , Stewart Lauren , Wheeler Christin 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This chapter describes the authors’ experiences facilitating a Rainbow Club group in an elementary school. Rainbow Clubs are groups in elementary schools for students who are LGBTQ+, or who have LGBTQ+ parents, guardians, or other family members, and allies in the LGBTQ+ community. The goal of these clubs is to create a supportive and affirming space for all students and to help make the school community inclusive and safe for students who identify as LGBTQ+ and/or who have family members who identify as LGBTQ+. Clubs also aim to educate all students on LGBTQ+ rights and to teach allies how to be positive supporters. In this chapter, the authors describe how the group functions and offer a blueprint for other schools to follow.
