This book was released on 2022-05-03 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in paperback, a romantic love story by the great Brazilian writer Lóri, a primary school teacher, is isolated and nervous, comfortable with children but unable to connect to adults. When she meets Ulisses, a professor of philosophy, an opportunity opens: a chance to escape the shipwreck of introspection and embrace the love, including the sexual love, of a man. Her attempt, as Sheila Heti writes in her afterword, is not only “to love and to be loved,” but also “to be worthy of life itself.” Published in 1968, An Apprenticeship is Clarice Lispector’s attempt to reinvent herself following the exhausting effort of her metaphysical masterpiece The Passion According to G. H. Here, in this unconventional love story, she explores the ways in which people try to bridge the gaps between them, and the result, unusual in her work, surprised many readers and became a bestseller. Some appreciated its accessibility; others denounced it as sexist or superficial. To both admirers and critics, the olympian Clarice gave a typically elliptical answer: “I humanized myself,” she said. “The book reflects that.”

[Bloom] is a supple, clear writer, and his parade of counterintuitive claims about pleasure is beguiling.”—NPR Why is an artistic masterpiece worth millions more than a convincing forgery? Pleasure works in mysterious ways, as Paul Bloom reveals in this investigation of what we desire and why. Drawing on a wealth of surprising studies, Bloom investigates pleasures noble and seamy, lofty and mundane, to reveal that our enjoyment of a given thing is determined not by what we can see and touch but by our beliefs about that thing’s history, origin, and deeper nature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Want to Really Satisfy a Woman? Then read on...Based on empirical evidence, women in same sex encounters report more pleasure and satisfaction. According to the groundbreaking Shere Hite report on Female Sexuality (described as one of the 100 key books of our time by the Times) 52% of women in the UK ALWAYS orgasm when with a woman!! In Australia and New Zealand that's even higher! 60 % and 61% respectively. Furthermore when asked 'are you curious or would you like to try a sexual relationship with a woman'. . ...71% of UK women said yes! And in Australia and New Zealand its 78% and 80%.Furthermore ancient texts advocate the immense sexual potential of women, in fact in 15AD a spiritual leader in the East declared that when God was giving out sexual desire one tenth went to men, and a whopping nine tenths went to women! Through it all, one truth has remained - women inherently know how to please and satisfy women in a way that, until now, has received little recognition. The Kama Sutra, Ananga Ranga, The Perfumed Garden, and The Tao have all touched upon these areas, but none have fully explored the process and learning to be gained by women who love women.Intense desire, coupled with a not so fulfilling bedroom life, means a tide of sexual frustration sweeping many women!However the situation is not as bleak as it seems. In discussions with numerous bisexual and lesbian women a number of factors have been isolated which may hold the key to bringing pleasure and satisfaction to many women.- Develop a great appreciation of your partners body. Large, small, simply show your appreciation in words or touch, make her feel truly admired. - Facilitate relaxation. In other words take the time to relax the lady in your life - talk, give her a massage, rub her hands, play some music. Remember relaxation precedes arousal - therefore the more relaxed the lady, the greater will be her arousal, and response to your touch.- Increase your foreplay repertoire! For many couples there seem to be degree of focus on two strategic points. By expanding your vision to include often neglected areas such as the neck, back, forehead, eyes, hips, hands - you will be able to provide greater stimulation to her body, and increase arousal. Just make sure you keep this up for at least 20 - 30 minutes to create the desired effect.- Holistic seduction : Vary the stimulation when seducing your love object. Find out her likes and dislikes, interests, hobbies, and talk about them. Make her really feel listened to.. Now use your body language, words, questions, and atmosphere to create the seduction. Your body language should be open and relaxed; your words gentle and pleasing to the mind; the tone of your voice - deep, gentle and steady; slowly steer your line of questioning to sensual topics - i.e. her favorite food, types of massage she likes, the forms of art she admires. This will stimulate her inherent sensuality.- Holistic lovemaking : involve her mind, body and soul. The central idea here is to fundamentally create a sense of connection. By creating this feeling, you will be involving her mind, body and soul in the process, and thereby increase her response to you and her pleasure. Tantric exercise such as simply looking into each other's eyes - creates an intense bond, and fires neurons in the brain responsible for making us feel grounded, protected, and valued. Lye face to face, or sit face to face and simply gaze into each other's eyes. A variation of this is to sit, lie, or stand face to face (with eyes closed and foreheads touching) and simply feel the connection. Once you are familiar with these exercises try co-ordinating your breathing, to create an even greater feeling of connection.- Discover her body, find out her preferences! Is she a G-Spot or clitoral woman? Taylor you positions to give her - her favorite stimulation. As a general rule - positions which stimulate the clitoris are usually face to face, and those tha

Download or read book The Autonomy of Pleasure written by James A. Steintrager and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2016-02-16 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What would happen if pleasure were made the organizing principle for social relations and sexual pleasure ruled over all? Radical French libertines experimented clandestinely with this idea during the Enlightenment. In explicit novels, dialogues, poems, and engravings, they wrenched pleasure free from religion and morality, from politics, aesthetics, anatomy, and finally reason itself, and imagined how such a world would be desirable, legitimate, rapturous—and potentially horrific. Laying out the logic and willful illogic of radical libertinage, this book ties the Enlightenment engagement with sexual license to the expansion of print, empiricism, the revival of skepticism, the fashionable arts and lifestyles of the Ancien Régime, and the rise and decline of absolutism. It examines the consequences of imagining sexual pleasure as sovereign power and a law unto itself across a range of topics, including sodomy, the science of sexual difference, political philosophy, aesthetics, and race. It also analyzes the roots of radical claims for pleasure in earlier licentious satire and their echoes in appeals for sexual liberation in the 1960s and beyond.

Book excerpt: A timely and expansive survey of a groundbreaking American art movement that overturned aesthetic hierarchies in a riot of color and ornamentation The Pattern and Decoration movement emerged in the 1970s as an embrace of long-dismissed art forms associated with the decorative. Pioneering artists such as Miriam Schapiro (1923-2015), Joyce Kozloff (b. 1942), Robert Kushner (b. 1949), and others appropriated patterns, frequently from non-Western decorative arts, to produce intricate, often dizzying or gaudy designs in media ranging from painting, sculpture, and collage to ceramics, installation art, and performance. This dazzling book showcases an astonishing array of works by more than 40 artists from across the United States, examining the movement's defiant adoption of art forms traditionally viewed as feminine, craft-based, or otherwise inferior to fine art. In addition to offering an overview of the Pattern and Decoration movement as it is commonly recognized, this volume considers artists of the period who are not typically associated with the movement. Rethinking the significance of patterns and the decorative in postwar American art, this panoramic view provides new insights into abstraction, feminism, and installation art. Essays explore the movement's feminist methods and values, including Miriam Schapiro's "femmage" practice; its impact on contemporary abstract painting; and its relationship to postmodern architecture and design. Artist biographies, an exhibition history, and reprints of historically significant writings further establish With Pleasure as the most expansive publication on the subject.
