The crisis of the heart: Women's self- and God representations as factors in the recovery from cardiac illness.
Griesel, Johanna Maria.

The crisis of the heart: Women's self- and God representations as factors in the recovery from cardiac illness. - 269 p.

Adviser: Donald Capps.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Princeton Theological Seminary, 2001.

This dissertation argues that there is a noticeable change in a woman's God representation and self-representation after cardiac surgery. The initial diagnosis usually causes despair, but this often changes into hope and trust that surgery may improve the quality of life. Thus, women face this life-threatening surgery with considerable anxiety, while they also remain hopeful that it will be life-sustaining.

520 $a This dissertation argues that there is a noticeable change in a woman's God representation and self-representation after cardiac surgery. The initial diagnosis usually causes despair, but this often changes into hope and trust that surgery may improve the quality of life. Thus, women face this life-threatening surgery with considerable anxiety, while they also remain hopeful that it will be life-sustaining.
520 $a The fact that seemingly similar circumstances lead one patient to comfort and acceptance, while another experiences those events as upsetting and threatening, sparked my interest. It led to the assumption that it could be traced back to their God representation and self-representation formed in early childhood.
520 $a I have chosen both psychological and theological literature to support, and augment this basic thesis. I show that the empirical research of Antoine Vergote and Alvaro Tamayo and the case studies of Ana-Maria Rizzuto and John McDargh provide a strong argument for the importance of the self- and God representation throughout the cycle of life. The theological views of Paul Tillich on faith and Elizabeth Moltmann-Wendel on embodiment provide a theological support for my argument. The views of social psychologist Kenneth Pargament support my thesis by showing that religion, while not simply a way of coping, can be fully involved in that process. My own research on women experiencing cardiac surgery tests these theoretical arguments. By means of two extended case studies, I provide empirical support for my view that cardiac surgery, while a serious medical procedure, may lead to a positive change in women's God representation and self-representation, and may therefore play a significant role in the deepening of women's personal faith.
520 $a I conclude that an awareness of the potential changes in God representation and self-representation that may occur in major cardiac surgery may help the chaplain be more responsive to the need of patients to reflect on the psychological and religious changes they experience in and through this life-threatening experience.
