Beschreibung
Can psychotherapy transcend linguistic boundaries, or does it always reveal itself within the horizon of its language of origin. Grounded in Wittgenstein's approach to language and meaning, this book offers an Oriental perspective on Occidental concepts, aiming to establish a globally inclusive understanding of psychotherapy. The Color Spectrum of Concepts (CSC) is presented in this book to address the challenges of meaning-making across diverse languages in psychotherapy. It facilitates interlingual understanding by visualizing conceptual definitions and comparing the positions of signified concepts in various languages as topoi on a color spectrum. CSC was initially developed within the framework of a dissertation written by Enila Ataie at SFU and supervised by Alfred Pritz, who played a significant role in shaping the Austrian Psychotherapy Act (PthG), which established high standards for the exercise of psychotherapy as a distinct profession, and Carlos Watzka, co-author of Dämonen, which was awarded Science Book of the Year 2025 in the field of Humanities, Social Sciences, and Cultural Studies in Austria. The innovative approach of the Color Spectrum of Concepts was reviewed and recognized by Gerhard Burda, a psychoanalyst, philosopher, and writer, as well as by Paolo Raile, a psychotherapist, psychotherapy researcher, and cultural theorist. By considering varied interpretations of widely accepted psychotherapeutic interventions around the world within an integrative hermeneutic framework, this work aims to lay a theoretical foundation for a more globally attuned approach to psychotherapy and invites readers to reflect on the evolving role of Globalized Psychotherapy in an increasingly interconnected world.
