Narcissism
Narcissism is a self-centered personality style characterized as having an excessive interest in one's physical appearance or image and an excessive preoccupation with one's own needs, often at the expense of others. Narcissism exists on a continuum that ranges from normal to abnormal personality expression. While there exists normal, healthy levels of narcissism in humans, there are also more extreme levels of narcissism, being seen particularly in people who are self-absorbed, or people who have a pathological mental illness like narcissistic personality disorder. It is one of the traits featured in the dark triad, along with Machiavellianism (psychology), Machiavellianism and subclinical psychopathy. History of thought The term "narcissism" comes from the Roman poet Ovid's ''Metamorphoses'', written in the year 8 AD. Book III of the poem tells the mythical story of a handsome young man, Narcissus (mythology), Narcissus, who spurns the advances of many potential lovers. ...

Narcissus Bulbocodium
''Narcissus bulbocodium'', the petticoat daffodil or hoop-petticoat daffodil, is a species of flowering plant in the family Amaryllidaceae, native to southern and western France, Portugal, and Spain. Some sources say that the species is also native to Morocco, but this is based on populations formerly thought to be varieties of ''N. bulbocodium'' but now regarded as separate species. Description ''Narcissus bulbocodium'' is a variable, small, hardy bulbous perennial, growing to tall, with grass-like leaves, and deep yellow trumpet-shaped flowers in mid-Spring. The flower is unusual in that the central trumpet (corona) is exceptionally large in relation to the outer section (perianth) consisting of tiny pointed segments. The specific epithet ''bulbocodium'' means "woolly bulb". At 12 mm it has the smallest floral diameter amongst ''Narcissus''. Hybrids ''Narcissus bulbocodium'' is a parent of several hybrids, including:- *''N.'' × ''abilioi'' Fern.Casas (''N. bulbocodium ...

Narcissistic Leadership
Narcissistic leadership is a leadership style in which the leader is only interested in him/herself. Their priority is themselves – at the expense of their people/group members. This leader exhibits the characteristics of a narcissist: arrogance, dominance and hostility. It is a sufficiently common leadership style that it has acquired its own name. Narcissism is most often described as unhealthy and destructive. It has been described as "driven by unyielding arrogance, self-absorption, and a personal egotistic need for power and admiration". Narcissism and groups A study published in the journal ''Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin'' suggests that when a group is without a leader, a narcissist is likely to take charge. Researchers have found that people who score high in narcissism tend to take control of leaderless groups. Freud considered "the ''narcissistic'' type... especially suited to act as a support for others, to take on the role of leaders and to... impress ot ...

Narcissistic Rage And Narcissistic Injury
Narcissistic injury, also known as "narcissistic wound" or "wounded ego" are emotional traumas that overwhelm an individual's defense mechanisms and devastate their pride and self worth. In some cases the shame or disgrace is so significant that the individual can never again truly feel good about who they are and this is sometimes referred to as a "narcissistic scar"." Freud maintained that "losses in love" and "losses associated with failure" often leave behind injury to an individual's self-regard. Treatment Adam Phillips has argued that, contrary to what common sense might expect, therapeutic cure involves the patient being encouraged to re-experience "a terrible narcissistic wound" – the child's experience of exclusion by the parental alliance – in order to come to terms with, and learn again, the diminishing loss of omnipotence entailed by the basic "facts of life". Signals of Narcissistic Injury A narcissistic injury will oftentimes not be noticeable at first sight. N ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Narcissistic Number
In number theory, a narcissistic number 1 F_ : \mathbb \rightarrow \mathbb to be the following: : F_(n) = \sum_^ d_i^k. where k = \lfloor \log_ \rfloor + 1 is the number of digits in the number in base b, and : d_i = \frac is the value of each digit of the number. A natural number n is a narcissistic number if it is a fixed point for F_, which occurs if F_(n) = n. The natural numbers 0 \leq n 0: digit_count = digit_count + 1 y = y // b total = 0 while x > 0: total = total + pow(x % b, digit_count) x = x // b return total def ppdif_cycle(x, b): seen = [] while x not in seen: seen.append(x) x = ppdif(x, b) cycle = [] while x not in cycle: cycle.append(x) x = ppdif(x, b) return cycle The following Python program determines whether the integer entered is a Narcissistic / Armstrong number or not. def no_of_digits(num): i = 0 while num > 0: num //= 10 i+=1 retu ...

Narcissus In Culture
Narcissi are widely celebrated in art and literature. Commonly called daffodil or jonquil, the plant is associated with a number of themes in different cultures, ranging from death to good fortune. Its early blooms are invoked as a symbol of Spring, and associated religious festivals such as Easter, with the Lent lilies or Easter bells amongst its common names. The appearance of the wild flowers in spring is also associated with festivals in many places. While prized for its ornamental value, there is also an ancient cultural association with death, at least for pure white forms. Historically the narcissus has appeared in written and visual arts since antiquity, being found in graves from Ancient Egypt. In classical Graeco-Roman literature the narcissus is associated with both the myth of the youth who was turned into a flower of that time, and with the Goddess Persephone, snatched into the underworld as she gathered their blooms. Narcissi were said to grow in meadows in the un ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Narcissus Pseudonarcissus
''Narcissus pseudonarcissus'' (commonly known as wild daffodil or Lent lily) (Welsh: Cennin Pedr) is a perennial flowering plant. This species has pale yellow tepals, with a darker central trumpet. The long, narrow leaves are slightly greyish green in colour and rise from the base of the stem. The plant grows from a bulb. The flowers produce seeds, which when germinated, take five to seven years to produce a flowering plant. (Sexual seed reproduction mixes the traits of both parent flowers, so if garden hybrid cultivars are planted close to wild populations of ''Narcissus pseudonarcissus'', there is a danger that the new seedlings, having hybrid vigour, could out-compete the wild plants.) Distribution The species is native to Western Europe from Spain and Portugal east to Germany and north to England and Wales. It is commonly grown in gardens and populations have become established in the Balkans, Australia, New Zealand, the Caucasus, Madeira, British Columbia, Ontario, Newf ...

''Narcissus papyraceus'' (from ''papyrus'' and ''aceus''; meaning paper-like), one of a few species known as paperwhite, is a perennial bulbous plant native to the Mediterranean region, from Greece to Portugal plus Morocco and Algeria. The species is considered naturalized in the Azores, Corsica, Texas, California and Louisiana. The white flowers are borne in bunches and are strongly fragrant. It is frequently grown as a house plant, often forced to flower at Christmas.

Healthy Narcissism
Healthy narcissism is a positive sense of self that is in alignment with the greater good. The concept of healthy narcissism was first coined by Paul Federn and gained prominence in the 1970s through the research of Heinz Kohut and Otto Kernberg. It developed slowly out of the psychoanalytic tradition, and became popular in the late twentieth century. The concept of healthy narcissism is used in clinical psychology and popular psychology as an aid to self-assertion and success. It has indeed been suggested that it is useful to think of a continuum of narcissism, ranging from deficient to healthy to pathological, with stable narcissism and destructive narcissism as stopping-points in between. Sigmund Freud on normal narcissism Freud considered narcissism a natural part of the human makeup that, taken to extremes, prevents people from having meaningful relationships.Sigmund Freud, ''On Metapsychology'' (PFL 11) p. 82–3Simon Crompton, ''All About Me'' (London 2007) He disting ...
