V središču raziskave je pojem katarze, bistvene sestavine uspešnega psihoterapevtskega procesa, kadar je vanj vključena pomoč z umetnostjo. S tem namenom je opravljen pregled literarnih virov, kjer gre za opredelitve katarze v različ-nih geografskih, zgodovinskih in socialnih kontekstih ter kot sestavine terapevtskih pristopov. Cilj raziskave je preko analize obstoječih teoretičnih in praktičnih opredelitev tega pojma, prispevati k jasni opredelitvi pojma katarze ter izpostaviti pomen jasne definicije pojma, ko gre za področje pomoči z umetnostjo.

Abstract

This research focuses on defining the catharsis phenomenon, since it is an essential component to successful outcomes when arts therapies are included in psychological treatments. For this purpose, definitions of catharsis as given in different sources are investigated and the ca-thartic phenomenon is recognised as a concrete event occurring in different geographical areas, his-torical periods and social contexts as well as in a range of different therapies. The final part of the thesis attempts to advance a somewhat clearer and objective view of the inves-tigated phenomenon and presents some possible conclusions regarding the topics in consideration. Through the analysis of various sources regarding catharsis as a theoretical and practical phenome-non, the proposition of this work is to support the importance of catharsis in defining arts therapies.
