共時性（Co-Temporalities）

「共時性」的概念建立在一個洞見之上：時間是一種文化建構，因此是相對的，依賴於具體的社會情境。從這一視角來看，時間性從單一性轉變為多樣性，受不同競爭或合作因素影響，從而決定「共時性」如何互動與共存。特別是在都市空間中，不同時間性往往會產生衝突與變遷，並伴隨著不同群體與國家機構所經歷的交錯節奏。「共時性」使研究者能夠掌握城市中這些複雜的時間動態，進而更好地理解城市性與時間的關係。

「共時性」的概念是以「共空間性」為模型，後者由萊維在2003年提出，以描述空間的多層次性。萊維通過「空間間性」的概念，闡述了不同現實間的重疊與互動。同樣地，「共時性」提供了一種分析方法，來探討時間維度中的「共空間性」，即城市中不同時間性與時間實踐的重疊。這一方法建立在「共時性」必須「發生於某地」的假設之上，因此，時間具有多重層次或結構，並且這些層次可以共存。在城市空間中，這一點尤為明顯，不同群體以不同的方式經歷著各種時間形態。

這一方法部分受到亨利·列斐伏爾（Henri Lefebvre）的城市節奏分析的影響（Lefebvre，1992，遺作出版）。列斐伏爾致力於分析城市空間的節奏，以及這些節奏如何影響居民的日常生活。他與妻子兼合作者凱薩琳·瑞居利耶（Catherine Régulier）共同研究了時間、空間、建築與街道運動的交錯（Lefebvre & Régulier，1986）。

在更具解構性的意義上，米歇爾·傅柯（Michel Foucault）在1970年代的《規訓與懲罰》（Discipline and Punish: The Birth of the Prison）中已指出，時間如何在現代社會（如監獄、軍隊、學校）中被規範、刻印與結構化。傅柯的門生吉爾·德勒茲（Gilles Deleuze）在《控制社會的後記》（Postscript on the Societies of Control）一文中進一步發展這一概念，認為在後規訓社會（即日益社會技術化的現代城市中），時間作為控制因素已經變得可調節、可操縱，使個體從啟蒙哲學中的「完整主體」，變為可操控的「分割個體」（dividual）（Deleuze，1992）。

從宗教研究的角度來看，「共時性」也可借鑒查爾斯·泰勒（Charles Taylor，2007）的觀點，即世俗性本身就是一種時間形態。然而，現代化並非均質或同質的，甚至並非必然非宗教化。因此，正如埃森斯塔特（Shmuel N. Eisenstadt，2003）所言，「多重現代性」可以同時存在，並在全球城市化空間與多元城市中上演，有時和諧共存，有時則發生衝突。

換言之，「共時性」作為「共空間性」的補充概念，將時間維度納入對重疊空間的分析之中。畢竟，正如愛因斯坦所教導的，時間與空間可以被擴展、壓縮、扭曲與變形，受物質、建築、城市、身體、污染以及生命運動的影響。(Source: Erfurt-ness by Sara Keller · Published August 19, 2019 · Updated April 10, 2024)

APP Iconada: Vocative Object vs Evocative Object

The terms "vocative object" and "evocative object" pertain to distinct but related concepts often discussed in literature, cognitive poetics, and phenomenology. Here’s a breakdown of their differences:

Vocative Object  （呼唤型物項）

Definition: A "vocative object" refers to something that directly addresses or calls upon the subject, often implying an intentional or direct engagement. The term "vocative" comes from the Latin vocare, meaning "to call." In literary or cognitive terms, it represents objects that summon attention or dialogue with the observer, almost as if they possess a voice or agency.

Function: Vocative objects engage in a sort of conversation with the subject; they compel a response. They are often imbued with a sense of urgency or immediacy, demanding recognition or interaction.

Examples

Letters in ancient poetry that seem to directly address the reader or another character, serving as active agents in communication.

Religious icons or artifacts that "call" to the faithful, not just as symbols but as entities asking for interaction.

A mirror reflecting one's image, metaphorically "speaking" back to the observer.

2. Evocative Object （引發情感的念物、情動物、喚起性物件、回味無窮的物體、觸動心靈的造物、引發共鳴的物品）

Definition: An "evocative object" is something that elicits feelings, memories, or associations within the subject. The term "evocative" comes from the Latin evocare, meaning "to call forth." These objects don't directly engage the subject but rather provoke an inner response, often emotional or imaginative.

Function: Evocative objects trigger a deeper, often subconscious, response that may include nostalgia, inspiration, or a sense of wonder. They don’t "speak" to the observer but rather act as catalysts for personal or collective memory and emotion.

Examples

A childhood toy that brings back memories of early years.

A photograph that evokes a specific time, place, or emotional state.

Natural objects like seashells or stones that stir a sense of place or personal reflection.

Key Differences

Engagement vs. Provocation

Vocative objects actively engage or call out to the observer, establishing a direct connection.

Evocative objects provoke internal responses without direct engagement, often relying on the observer's personal context or experiences.

Agency

Vocative objects possess an agency that suggests they are "speaking" or interacting with the observer.

Evocative objects have no such agency; they do not "speak" but instead "suggest" or "trigger" responses.

Nature of Response

Vocative objects elicit a communicative or dialogical response.

Evocative objects elicit an emotional, imaginative, or reflective response.

These distinctions highlight how objects can influence human perception and interaction differently, either through direct engagement or by quietly stirring inner worlds.

APP Iconada: Conation & Affects

The concepts of Conation and Affects both engage with how human beings interact with the world, but they emphasize different aspects of human experience. Here's a comparative breakdown of the two:

Conation

Definition: Conation refers to the aspect of mental life related to motivation, intention, will, and purposeful action. It encompasses the drive to act, make decisions, pursue goals, and engage with the world in a directed way. In psychological terms, it is often seen alongside cognition (thinking) and affection (feeling) as one of the three primary functions of the mind.

Focus: Conation focuses on the motivational dimension of behavior—how intentions and desires translate into actions. It deals with agency, goaldirected behavior, and the will to influence or change circumstances.

Example: A student deciding to study late into the night to prepare for an exam demonstrates conation. This drive is not just about feeling or thinking but actively choosing to pursue a goal.

Affects

Definition: Affects refer to the emotional experiences, feelings, or states of being that influence how we perceive and respond to the world. Affects encompass both shortterm emotional reactions (like joy, anger, or sadness) and more sustained emotional states.

Focus: Affects are concerned with the emotional and experiential aspects of human life—how we feel, respond emotionally, and are affected by internal and external stimuli. Affect is more about the immediacy of emotional responses rather than deliberate action.

Example: Feeling anxious before a public speaking event is an affective response. This anxiety shapes how one perceives the situation but doesn’t necessarily involve action unless linked with a conative aspect (like avoiding the event).

Key Differences

1. Domain: Conation relates to the will and purposeful actions; affects pertain to feelings and emotional states.

2. Function: Conation drives actions and decisions; affects influence perception and emotional responses.

3. Outcome: Conation results in goaldirected behavior; affects result in emotional experiences that can modify behavior but are not directly about action.

4. Temporal Aspect: Conation is often future-oriented (planning, striving); affects are often present-oriented (immediate emotional response).

Interaction

Conation and affects often work together; for example, an affective state like fear can influence conative decisions (avoiding a risky situation), and strong conative intentions (like determination) can modulate affects (lessening the impact of fear).

Understanding these distinctions helps to clarify how motivations and emotions shape human behavior in complex and interconnected ways.

APP Iconada： "theory of calling" & Julia Kristeva 1

[A: Affects P: Percepts P: Powers]

In the psychoanalytic sense, the "theory of calling" can be connected toJulia Kristeva's philosophy, particularly through her exploration of the relationship between the individual’s inner world (the unconscious) and the external social and linguistic structures (the symbolic order).

To understand this connection, it's essential to consider how Kristeva's ideas on language, subjectivity, and the semiotic/symbolic dichotomy relate to the concept of a "calling" or vocation.

The Semiotic and the Symbolic

Kristeva’s Semiotic: In Kristeva's theory, the semiotic is associated with the prelinguistic, bodily drives, and rhythms. It is the domain of emotions, the unconscious, and the instinctual. The semiotic is often repressed or regulated by the symbolic order, which is the realm of structured language, social norms, and laws.

The Symbolic: The symbolic is where identity, meaning, and social order are constructed through language and culture. It is the domain in which the individual finds a place within society by adhering to its rules and norms.

Calling as Semiotic and Symbolic: The concept of a "calling" can be seen as a dynamic interaction between the semiotic and symbolic realms. A calling often arises from deep, unconscious drives (semiotic) and is expressed or realized within the social and linguistic structures of society (symbolic). It can be understood as the individual’s attempt to align their deep inner desires and potentials with an external social role or vocation.

Desire and Drive

Unconscious Desire: In psychoanalytic terms, a calling could be seen as an expression of unconscious desires, which Kristeva associates with the semiotic. These desires may seek expression in a particular vocation or life path, driving the individual toward a certain type of work or creative endeavor.

Sublimation: Kristeva, influenced by Freud, would view the process of sublimation as key here. A calling could be seen as a form of sublimation, where unconscious drives and desires are channeled into socially acceptable and personally fulfilling activities, such as art, religion, or a profession. This process allows the individual to express their inner world while still operating within the symbolic order.

The Subject in Process

Kristeva’s Concept of the Subject in Process: Kristeva introduces the idea of the subject in process, emphasizing that subjectivity is never fixed but is always in a state of becoming, shaped by the constant interplay between the semiotic and symbolic. A calling can be understood within this framework as a key aspect of this process of becoming. It represents a way for the subject to navigate the tensions between their inner desires and the demands of the external world.

Comment by 家 在這裡 on September 20, 2024 at 10:17pm

Identity and Transformation: A calling can also be seen as a moment of transformation where the individual’s identity is reshaped or redefined. For Kristeva, identity is not static but fluid, and a calling might represent a significant shift or evolution in this ongoing process of identity formation.

Abjection and Transgression

Abjection: Kristeva’s concept of abjection involves the confrontation with what is excluded from the symbolic order—the chaotic, the bodily, the maternal, the semiotic. A calling might involve confronting these abject elements, integrating them into one’s life and work. For example, artists and creators often feel called to explore themes or ideas that are taboo or outside societal norms, bringing the abject into the symbolic through their work.

Transgression: A calling can also be seen as a form of transgression, where the individual pushes the boundaries of the symbolic order to include new meanings, roles, or identities. This transgressive aspect is central to Kristeva’s idea of poetic language, where language itself becomes a site of resistance and transformation.

The Maternal and the Feminine

The Maternal: Kristeva’s work on the maternal and the feminine, particularly in her exploration of the semiotic, can also relate to the idea of a calling. The maternal is associated with the presymbolic, the source of life and creativity, and often represents a powerful, unconscious force that drives individuals towards certain paths or vocations.

The Feminine as Creative Force: Kristeva’s association of the feminine with the semiotic can be linked to the idea of a calling as a creative force. The calling could be seen as the individual’s attempt to articulate and give form to these deep, often unarticulated desires and creative energies, aligning them with a socially recognized role or vocation.

Connecting the "Theory of Calling" with Kristeva’s Philosophy

In summary, the "theory of calling" in a psychoanalytic sense can be connected to Kristeva’s philosophy through several key concepts:

Semiotic Drives: A calling might originate from the semiotic realm, driven by unconscious desires and creative energies that seek expression in the symbolic order.

Sublimation and Identity: A calling could be seen as a sublimated expression of these drives, where the individual finds a socially acceptable outlet for their deepest desires, shaping their identity in the process.

Subject in Process: Kristeva’s notion of the subject in process highlights how a calling might represent a key moment in the ongoing formation and transformation of identity.

Abjection and Transgression: A calling may involve confronting abject elements or transgressing symbolic boundaries, integrating what is excluded or repressed into one’s life and work.

Through these connections, Kristeva’s philosophy provides a nuanced framework for understanding a calling as a complex interplay between the unconscious and the social, the semiotic and the symbolic.

APP Iconada： "theory of calling" & Julia Kristeva 2

[A: Affects P: Percepts P: Powers]

The concept of a "theory of calling" within psychoanalysis generally pertains to understanding an individual's sense of vocation, purpose, or intrinsic drive to pursue a particular path in life. This involves exploring the unconscious motivations, desires, and conflicts that shape one's professional and personal commitments. When examining how this theory connects withJulia Kristeva's philosophy, several key intersections emerge, particularly through her concepts of subjectivity, the semiotic and symbolic, and the formation of identity.

Subjectivity and the Formation of Identity

Theory of Calling—Focuses on how individuals develop a sense of purpose or vocation. Explores the internal motivations and unconscious factors that drive one's professional and personal choices.

Kristeva's Philosophy— Subjectivity: Kristeva emphasizes that subjectivity is not a fixed entity but is continuously shaped through interactions with language, culture, and the unconscious. Interplay of Semiotic and Symbolic: She posits that our identities are formed through the dynamic interaction between the semiotic (prelinguistic, emotional drives) and the symbolic (structured language, societal norms).

Connection:  The "theory of calling" aligns with Kristeva's view that an individual's sense of purpose is a product of both unconscious drives (semiotic) and societal structures (symbolic). Understanding one's calling involves navigating and integrating these two dimensions to form a coherent sense of self and purpose.

Semiotic Drives and Intrinsic Motivation

Theory of Calling— Intrinsic motivation and passion are seen as key drivers behind an individual's vocation.  These motivations often stem from deepseated, sometimes unconscious, desires and needs.

Kristeva's Philosophy— Semiotic: Represents the realm of drives, emotions, and bodily expressions that precede structured language.  Role in Creativity and Innovation: The semiotic is crucial for creative processes, allowing for the emergence of new meanings and expressions beyond conventional structures.

Connection: The intrinsic motivations central to the "theory of calling" can be understood through Kristeva's concept of the semiotic. These drives push individuals toward creative and meaningful pursuits, often challenging societal norms and contributing to personal and cultural innovation.

Language, Communication, and Expressing the Calling

Theory of Calling— Communication about one's vocation involves articulating personal values, goals, and motivations. Language plays a crucial role in shaping and expressing one's sense of purpose.

Kristeva's Philosophy—Symbolic Order: Language structures our reality and social interactions, providing the framework within which we express and negotiate our identities.  Intertextuality: The idea that texts (or expressions) are influenced by and connected to other texts, reflecting the complex nature of meaningmaking.

Connection: Articulating one's calling requires navigating the symbolic order of language to express semiotic drives. Kristeva's notion of intertextuality suggests that our understanding and expression of our vocation are influenced by broader cultural narratives and discourses, highlighting the interconnectedness of individual purpose and societal context.

Conflict and Negotiation Between Semiotic and Symbolic

Theory of Calling:  Individuals may experience internal conflicts when their intrinsic motivations (semiotic) clash with societal expectations or norms (symbolic).  Resolving these conflicts is essential for achieving a sense of fulfillment and authenticity in one's vocation.

Comment by 家 在這裡 on September 20, 2024 at 10:06pm

Kristeva's Philosophy— Tension Between Semiotic and Symbolic: Kristeva highlights the ongoing negotiation between the disruptive, fluid semiotic forces and the stabilizing, structured symbolic order.  Abjection and BoundaryPushing: The semiotic can challenge and destabilize established norms, leading to creative transformations but also potential conflicts.

Connection: The "theory of calling" embodies the tension Kristeva describes, where individuals must reconcile their internal drives with external expectations. This negotiation process is crucial for developing a unique and authentic sense of purpose, reflecting Kristeva's emphasis on the dynamic interplay between different aspects of subjectivity.

Creativity and Transformation

Theory of Calling: Pursuing one's vocation often involves creative expression and the transformation of personal and professional landscapes.  Creativity is seen as a pathway to fulfilling one's sense of purpose.

Kristeva's Philosophy— Revolution in Poetic Language: Kristeva explores how avantgarde and poetic language disrupt conventional structures, allowing for new forms of expression and meaning. Creativity as Liberation: The semiotic dimension fosters innovation and the breaking of boundaries, essential for cultural and personal transformation.

Connection：The creative aspects of pursuing a calling resonate with Kristeva's ideas on how semiotic forces drive innovation and transformation. Engaging in creative endeavors as part of one's vocation aligns with her belief in the liberating potential of the semiotic to challenge and redefine existing structures.

Ethics and Subjective Freedom

Theory of Calling: Emphasizes personal fulfillment and ethical alignment with one's work. Encourages individuals to pursue paths that resonate with their deepest values and desires.

Kristeva's Philosophy— Affirmative Ethics: Kristeva advocates for embracing difference, creativity, and the fluid nature of subjectivity as ethical imperatives. Subjective Freedom: The ability to continually redefine oneself and one's purposes in response to changing internal and external conditions.

Connection:  The ethical dimension of the "theory of calling" is mirrored in Kristeva's affirmative ethics, which prioritize personal authenticity and the continuous evolution of identity. Pursuing a calling, therefore, becomes not just a professional endeavor but an ethical journey towards selfrealization and creative expression.

Summary

The "theory of calling" in psychoanalysis and Julia Kristeva's philosophy intersect through their shared focus on the dynamic interplay between internal drives and external structures in shaping identity and purpose. Kristeva's concepts of the semiotic and symbolic provide a nuanced framework for understanding the unconscious motivations and societal influences that underpin an individual's sense of vocation.

Furthermore, her emphasis on creativity, subjectivity, and the transformative potential of language aligns closely with the pursuit of a meaningful and authentic calling. By integrating Kristeva's insights, the "theory of calling" can be enriched with a deeper understanding of how personal purpose is negotiated, expressed, and actualized within the broader cultural and linguistic context.

爱垦 APP：情动叙事

研究叙事的感性（情动）意义涉及到多个学术领域，包括文学、文化研究、心理学、认知科学等领域。近年来，以下五个课题受到较多关注，并有一些新发现：

情感转向与叙事的情感作用：随着“情感 / 情动转向”（Affective Turn）的发展，学者们越来越重视叙事中情感的传递与共鸣。研究发现，叙事既是信息传递的工具，也是情感体验的媒介，影响了受众的感知和认知，尤其是如何通过情感叙事触发人们的同理心和情感认同。

叙事疗法与自我认同构建：叙事疗法的研究显示，通过个人叙述自己的故事，个体能够重新组织自我认知与身份。学者们发现，叙事不仅可以治愈心理创伤，还能在创造意义、塑造个体自我认同方面发挥作用，特别是如何通过重塑叙事帮助人们克服生活中的困境。

地方感性与叙事地理学：段义孚的“地方感性”理论对叙事的空间感知影响研究有很大贡献。叙事地理学研究发现，叙事不仅反映了故事的时间进程，还与空间体验紧密相连，塑造了人们对地方的情感归属和文化认同，尤其在地方文创和旅游叙事中，这一研究有了较大的突破。

叙事与集体记忆的共创：在社会学和文化研究中，集体记忆和叙事的关系成为研究热点。通过集体叙事，群体能够共同创造并传递他们的历史记忆和文化经验。学者们研究了叙事如何在不同文化背景下，帮助群体维持和重塑其共同记忆，尤其在数字化时代，叙事共创的形式不断演变。

认知叙事学与情感认知的关系：认知叙事学（Cognitive Narratology）研究表明，叙事不仅影响情感体验，还与认知过程高度关联。通过叙事，人们能够理解复杂的情感和心理状态。近年来的研究表明，叙事的结构和内容可以影响个体的情感理解，特别是在文学作品和影视作品中的人物情感刻画对观众或读者情感反应的影响。

这些课题都揭示了叙事不仅仅是传递信息的方式，更是一种复杂的感性体验工具，通过情感、空间、记忆和认知的交织来塑造个体和集体经验。
