Asylums; essays on the social situation of mental patients and other inmates by
Erving Goffman(
Book
)
176 editions published between 1961 and 2017 in 5 languages and held by 2,873 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
The author defines a "total institution" as a place of residence and work where a large number of like-situated, individuals, cut off from the wider society for an appreciable period of time, together lead an enclosed, formally administered round of life. Prisons serve as a clear example, providing we appreciate that what is prison-like about prisons is found in institutions whose members have broken no laws. This volume deals with total institutions in general and, mental hospitals, in particular. The main focus is, on the world of the inmate, not the world of the staff. A chief concern is to develop a sociological version of the structure of the self. Each of the essays in this book were intended to focus on the same issue--the inmate's situation in an institutional context

Interaction ritual; essays on face-to-face behavior by
Erving Goffman(
Book
)
91 editions published between 1967 and 2008 in English and Undetermined and held by 2,159 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Sex, smoking, and social stratification are three very different social phenomena. And yet, argues sociologist Randall Collins, they and much else in our social lives are driven by a common force: interaction rituals. Interaction Ritual Chains is a major work of sociological theory that attempts to develop a "radical microsociology." It proposes that successful rituals create symbols of group membership and pump up individuals with emotional energy, while failed rituals drain emotional energy. Each person flows from situation to situation, drawn to those interactions where their cultural capital gives them the best emotional energy payoff. Thinking, too, can be explained by the internalization of conversations within the flow of situations; individual selves are thoroughly and continually social, constructed from the outside in

Forms of talk by
Erving Goffman(
Book
)
65 editions published between 1981 and 2016 in 3 languages and held by 1,743 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Forms of Talk extends Erving Goffman's interactional analyses of face-to-face communication to ordinary conversations and vebal exchanges. In this, his most sociolinguistic work, Goffman relates to certain forms of talk some of the issues that concerned him in his work on frame analysis. This book brings together five of Goffman's essays: "Replies and Responses," "Response Cries," "Footing," "The Lecture," and "Radio Talk." Of lasting value in Goffman's work is his insistence that behavior - verbal or nonverbal - be examined along with the context of that behavior. In all of these classic essays, there is a "topic" at hand for discussion and analysis. In addition, as those familiar with Goffman's work have come to expect, there is the wider context in which the topic can be viewed and related to other topics - a characteristic move of Goffman's that has made his work so necessary for students of interaction in many disciplines. -- Back cover

Behavior in public places; notes on the social organization of gatherings by
Erving Goffman(
Book
)
76 editions published between 1903 and 2008 in 3 languages and held by 1,717 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
The purpose of this book is to develop a framework capable of dealing with an almost neglected area of social reality, behavior in public and semipublic places. [The author] feels that the distinct features of face-to-face interaction, richness of information flow, and facilitation of feedback, have enough structuring significance to provide an analytical rationale for its separate treatment. It is to his credit that this 'model' takes advantage of already existing and well-defined terminology, while introducing only a few new and relatively unfamiliar concepts

26 editions published between 1975 and 2015 in French and held by 339 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Il y a le stigmate d'infamie, tel la fleur de lys gravée au fer rouge sur l'épaule des galériens. Il y a les stigmates sacrés qui frappent les mystiques. Il y a les stigmates que laissent la maladie ou l'accident. Il y a les stigmates de l'alcoolisme et ceux qu'inflige l'emploi des drogues. Il y a la peau du Noir, l'étoile du juif, les façons de l'homosexuel. Il y a enfin le dossier de police du militant et, plus généralement, ce que l'on sait de quelqu'un qui a fait ou été quelque chose, et "ces gens-là, vous savez..." Le point commun de tout cela ? Marquer une différence et assigner une place : une différence entre ceux qui se disent "normaux" et les hommes qui ne le sont pas tout à fait

Asiles : etudes sur la condition sociale des malades mentaux et autres reclus by
Erving Goffman(
Book
)
27 editions published between 1962 and 2013 in French and Undetermined and held by 313 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
4e de couv.: Avant de devenir professeur de sociologie à l'Université de Berkeley, Erving Goffman s'est fait, trois années durant, l'ethnologue scrupuleux des malades mentaux internés dans les hôpitaux psychiatriques. Il présente dans Asiles une interprétation en profondeur de la vie hospitalière qui situe les pratiques thérapeutiques quotidiennes dans leur cadre le plus objectif, celui d'une "institution totalitaire", c'est-à-dire d'un établissement investi, comme la prison ou le camp de concentration par exemple, de la fonction ambiguë de neutraliser ou de réadapter à l'ordre social un type particulièrement inquiétant de déviants. La tension, et souvent la contradiction, qui existe entre l'exigence thérapeutique et ces impératifs de sécurité et de contrôle social rend compte du mode conflictuel de l'existence asilaire et des malentendus de la vie quotidienne au sein de l'hôpital. Par-delà les troubles de sa subjectivité, le malade mental est ainsi aliéné au second degré, parce que la maladie est institutionnalisée dans un espace social qui lui impose les déterminations majeures de la servitude
