d'être of these examinations is ethical, even theological, and can be posed as
a question: How can one live the good life in the face of our modern existence,
of which stress is a part? So despite the historical, even historicist, cast to
the work in this book, I am concerned with what is natural in a metaphysical
sense to men and women. It is another example of the double vision to
consider together the historicity and the nature of human existence. I hope
that my book does justice to the importance of this project.


NOTES
1. Marshall Berman, All That Is Solid Melts into Air: The Experience of Modernity
( New York: Simon & Schuster, 1982).
2. I am thinking here of depth psychology and its kin, the only psychology worthy
of the name because it considers as real the soul of mail. For references to J. H. van den Berg
, see Things ( Pittsburgh: Duquesne University Press, 1970), The Changing
Nature of Man ( New York: Norton, 1961), and Divided Existence and Complex Society
( Pittsburgh: Duquesne University Press, 1974). For Gaston Bachelard, a good be-
ginning is The Poetics of Space ( Boston: Beacon Press, 1964). For this extraverted turn
in psychology, see Robert Romanyshyn, "Psychological Language and the Voice of
Things", Dragonflies: Studies in Imaginal Psychology 1, no. 2 (Spring 1979), 73-79.
3. I have already explored this notion in The Windows of Soul (Lewisburg, PA:
Bucknell University Press, 1983.
