| Summary: | This study examines authentic presence. Authentic presence, as identified in the study, comes from a theory of nursing developed by Anne Boykin and Savina Schoenhofer, Nursing as Caring: A Model for Transforming Practice. Authentic presence must be viewed in a philosophical context in order to be fully understood in practice. This analysis of Nursing as Caring reveals philosophical underpinnings in the theory's foundation. The primary texts of Soren Kierkegaard and Gaston Bachelard, both philosophers, are used to develop a foundation upon which is built a preliminary aesthetic framework to guide the examination of authentic presence. It is proposed that this framework reflects the meaning of the essence of abstract concepts and is demonstrated in an analysis of two poetic expressions. | |
