1940s - Others: Encyclopedia II - Anti-psychiatry - Origins of anti-psychiatry

The term "anti-psychiatry" was first used by David Cooper in 1967, though opposition to either psychiatry in general, or its practices, predates this coinage; surrealism's opposition to psychiatry predates it by decades. R. D. Laing, a psychiatrist, has been very influential; another psychiatrist, Thomas Szasz, is equally important, but both rejected the label "anti-psychiatry". Other critics of psychiatry often associated with the anti-psychiatry movement include Dr. Peter Breggin, Dr. Elliott Valenstein, Bruce Levine, Douglas C. Smith and ...

1940s - Others: Encyclopedia II - Electronic organ - The 1950s and 1960s

Electronic organ - The spinet organ. Following World War II, most electronic home organs were built in a configuration usually called a spinet organ, which first appeared in 1949. These compact and relatively inexpensive instruments became the natural successors to the reed organs. They were marketed as competitors of home pianos and often aimed at would-be home organists who were already pianists (hence the name "spinet," a small upright piano). The instrument's design reflected this concept: the spinet organ ph ...

1940s - Others: QUAOAR by sign   A generational indicator   (and a look at the Indigos)    

The newly-discovered planet, Quaoar, is an astrological key to identifying and understanding generational influences, particularly the Indigo children for whom Quaoar is a key defining astrological planet.

 

Like the other outer planets (Uranus, Neptune, Pluto), astrological interpretation of Quaoar by zodiac sign will be a generational indicator rather than a personal energy in the natal chart. In so doing, Quaoar begins by providing a fascinating rear-view mirror to look at 20th Century generations.

1940s - Others: Encyclopedia II - Gas mask - Sexual fetish

A small but significant number of people, particularly in the United Kingdom, have a sexual fetish about gas masks. It has been hypothesized that this may be because of childhood behavioral imprinting when these devices were issued in World War II. However, this does not explain those who share this fetish who were not children during World War II. One possibility is that gas masks are for them part of a wider rubber fetishism, or that the dehumanized appearance of a person wearing a gas mask ...

1940s - Others: Encyclopedia II - Jean-Luc Picard - Personal life and interests

At the outset, a little attention needs to be paid to Picard's "Frenchness" as in fact portrayed by a (very) British actor. One may at least speculate that Paramount was actively intent on pleasing both British and French Trekkers (there are many of both) at one and the same time. Indeed, it seems more than likely that British fans of the show (subconsciously at least) disregard the Frenchness entirely and regard Picard as "one of their own". The makers do little to dissuade them from this, since, while the factual details of J-L P's life-hi ...
