Psychology as a Science of the Soul: Evangelos Christou’s The Logos of the Soul (1963)
After Evangelos Christou (1923-1956) studied philosophy at King's College, Cambridge, with Wittgenstein and others, he earned a doctorate at the Jung Institute in Zürich. He then returned home to Alexandria, near which he died in a car crash. The Logos of the Soul, published posthumously, argued for a psychology that would be neither a natural scientific psychology, devoted to causal analyses, nor a philosophical discipline that analysed mental e…
The theory and practice of Thomas Verner Moore’s Catholic psychiatry and psychotherapy
Thomas Verner Moore (1877-1969), a Catholic priest, psychologist, and psychiatrist, developed a Catholic psychiatry in the first half of the 20th century. Following a brief description of Moore's life, this article develops his psychiatric theory, beginning with its grounding in Thomistic philosophical thought. The relationship between reason and faith, the place of the soul in psychological theory, and a central role for Catholic moral teaching …
The Sound of a Small Whisper: Ordinary Religious Experience
An ordinary religious experience does not entail an overwhelming sense of the Divine; it is not a “numinous” experience. It is instead easily ignored. In a phenomenological psychological inquiry into such a religious experience, both the noema, the “what” experienced, and the noesis, the mode of givenness of the experience, manifested themselves in distinctive ways. The paper examines a simple experience of having been guided in making a decision…
Imprimi potest: Roman Catholic censoring of psychology and psychoanalysis in the early 20th century
Because he was a Jesuit, Irish-born Edward Boyd Barrett (1883–1966) had to submit his writing to Jesuit censors, who were charged with making sure that nothing in the documents was contrary to Roman Catholic faith and morals. Drawing upon archival records, this article shows the complexities of the censorship process in the early 20th century. Boyd Barrett’s Motive Force and Motivation-Tracks (1911), an experimental study in will-psychology compl…
Willpower
Willpower has returned to contemporary psychology, drawing on ordinary speech, but the status of the will in psychology is not settled. Avoiding this antinomy of the will by proposing that willpower is an interactive kind (Hacking, 1999), this paper examines the significations of willpower as it developed in American culture and appeared in American newspapers from the 1850s to 1970. Willpower has diverse significations: self-control, resolutenes…
Intimacies of psychology and religion
Historical intersections of psychology, religion, and politics in national contexts
Various types of psychology have come into existence in and have been interacting with a plurality of contexts, contexts that have been radically varying in different states or nations. One important factor in the development of psychology has been the multiple relationships to the Christian religion, whether understood as an institution, a worldview, or a form of personal spirituality. The articles in this issue focus on the intertwinements betw…
Out of the ghetto: Integrating Catholics into mainstream psychology in the United States after World War II
The American Catholic Psychological Association (ACPA) was a voluntary association that formed and then transformed itself during a distinctive period of American history. Socially, American Catholics were primed to emerge from what they called their "ghetto," as this formerly largely immigrant group began to enter the economic and social mainstream. Institutions of higher education and psychology were recipients, moreover, of federal funding in …
Neoscholastic psychology revisited
Beginning around 1879, a Neoscholastic psychology developed, an experimental psychology with a soul. Opposed to materialism, it sought to renew Scholastic philosophy by incorporating the findings of the natural sciences. Neoscholastic psychology is an important chapter in the history of the relationships between science and religion in the 20th century. Neoscholastic psychology was both experimental and philosophical. This article presents the ma…
An encounter between psychology and religion: Humanistic psychology and the Immaculate Heart of Mary nuns
In the 1960s, humanistic psychology changed the relationship between psychology and religion by actively asserting the value of individual experience and self-expression. This was particularly evident in the encounter group movement. Beginning in 1967, Carl Rogers conducted a series of encounter groups, in order to promote "self-directed change in an educational system," for the Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, a religious order in Califo…
Pain as Symptom, Pain as Sign
This article proposes a theoretical contribution to critical health psychology. Charles Sanders Peirce's semiotics provide health psychology and related fields with an analytic that centers interest at the intersection where the co-constitution of reified categories occurs. I begin with the terms symptom and sign as used in medical contexts. Symptoms and signs can be reinterpreted, drawing on the Heideggerian notion of 'attunement', and upon Peir…
Introspective psychology, pure and applied: Henry Rutgers Marshall on pain and pleasure
Introspective psychology, pure and applied: Henry Rutgers Marshall on pain and pleasure
Henry Rutgers Marshal (1852-1927), architect and psychologist, in his aesthetic theory opposed the severing of pain from pleasure in neurological theories in the 1890s. He held that pain and pleasure are poles of the same quale of experience. Marshall's was an introspective psychology, which he used in his architectural criticism and support of the City Beautiful ideal. The practice of introspection educated him, making him a better judge of pers…

Augustinian Psychology
Pain in the Vernacular: Psychological and Physical
A hermeneuticalphenomenological analysis of 42 narratives of pain in everyday life leads to the conclusion that psychological pain is pain. Psychological and physical pain have similar phenomenological structures. Both are felt bodily performances that entail at least temporarily a disabling of a potentiality for action. Pain is a performance of affliction of a person in a social situation. The category of psychological and physical pains arises …

The Psychology and Management of Pain: Gate Control as Theory and Symbol
The theory and treatment of pain have undergone major changes since 1950. Significant has been the gate control theory of pain, first described in 1965. This theory symbolizes a new epistemology and praxis of pain by redefining pain as a process. The redefinition legitimated new treatment possibilities for pain, making all of a patient's existence fair game for professional management. Social uses of the new psychology of pain are examined, in th…
