Book Description
Though Freud is one of the towering intellectual figures of the twentieth century, too little attention has been paid to the influence of his Jewish identity upon his life and work, particularly the impact of growing up a Jew in turn-of-the-century Vienna. The 14 essays in this volume explore the ways in which Freud and his followers were embedded in the cultural matrix of Jewish Central and Eastern Europe. Topics include general, sociological, historical, and cultural issues and then turn to the personal: Freud’s education, his Jewish identity, and his thoughts about Judaism. Though a secular and ambivalent Jew, Freud’s emphasis on intellectualism and morality reveal the deep and abiding influence of European Jewish tradition upon his work.

Sigmund Freud and the Jewish Mystical Tradition
Author: David Bakan
Publisher: Courier Corporation
ISBN: 0486437671
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
A pioneering scholarly investigation into the intersection of personality and cultural history, this study asserts that Freudian psychology is rooted in Judaism — particularly, in the mysticism of the Kabbalah. It examines how Freud's Jewish heritage contributed, either consciously or unconsciously, to his psychological theories and clarifies the foundations of modern psychoanalysis.

Judaism in Sigmund Freud's World
Old and Dirty Gods
Author: Pamela Cooper-White
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351816411
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
Freud’s collection of antiquities—his "old and dirty gods"—stood as silent witnesses to the early analysts’ paradoxical fascination and hostility toward religion. Pamela Cooper-White argues that antisemitism, reaching back centuries before the Holocaust, and the acute perspective from the margins that it engendered among the first analysts, stands at the very origins of psychoanalytic theory and practice. The core insight of psychoanalytic thought— that there is always more beneath the surface appearances of reality, and that this "more" is among other things affective, memory-laden and psychological—cannot fail to have had something to do with the experiences of the first Jewish analysts in their position of marginality and oppression in Habsburg-Catholic Vienna of the 20th century. The book concludes with some parallels between the decades leading to the Holocaust and the current political situation in the U.S. and Europe, and their implications for psychoanalytic practice today. Covering Pfister, Reik, Rank, and Spielrein as well as Freud, Cooper-White sets out how the first analysts’ position as Europe’s religious and racial "Other" shaped the development of psychoanalysis, and how these tensions continue to affect psychoanalysis today. Old and Dirty Gods will be of great interest to psychoanalysts as well as religious studies scholars.

A Dangerous Legacy
Author: Hans Reijzer
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429896034
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
On 23rd July 1908 Sigmund Freud wrote to his colleague Karl Abraham: "Rest assured that if my name were Oberhuber an obviously non-Jewish name, in spite of everything my innovations would have met with far less resistance."From its beginning, psychoanalysis has been seen as a Jewish affair, and psychoanalysts have always been afraid of ending up in the position of the Jew - that of the outsider. In A Dangerous Legacy: Judaism and Psychoanalysis Hans Reijzer examines how psychoanalysts have managed that fear, in the recent past and in the present. During his research, which led him to Vienna, Paris, Amsterdam, London, Jerusalem, Hamburg, and Durban, Reijzer encountered malicious as well as enlightening statements, situations, and incidents. A Dangerous Legacy is a striking study of an interesting area of research. Reijzer's conclusion is surprising: stereotypes about Jews are a factor not only in the everyday world but also in the psychoanalytic world as soon as Jews take part in it.

Migration und Innovation um 1900
Author: Elisabeth Röhrlich
Publisher: Böhlau Verlag Wien
ISBN: 3205202589
Category : History
Languages : de
Pages : 530
Book Description
In den Jahrzehnten um 1900 entwickelte sich Wien zu einer der größten Städte Europas. Die Zuwanderung aus allen Teilen der Habsburgermonarchie bedingte jene Diversität, welche die Großstadt Wien erst zur Metropole werden ließ. Viele Protagonisten des kulturellen Booms der Jahrhundertwende waren Zuwanderer der ersten und zweiten Generation. Der Band versammelt Beiträge von österreichischen und internationalen Forschern und Forscherinnen, die sich dem Zusammenhang von Migration und Innovation während der Wiener Jahrhundertwende widmen. Sie beleuchten die diversen Entwicklungen in Kunst, Kultur, Theater, Musik, Wissenschaft, Wirtschaft und Politik und geben detaillierte Einblicke in die unterschiedlichen Zuwanderungsgeschichten, welche das Fin de Siècle prägten. Dabei werden Fragen von Identitätskonstruktionen, Netzwerken und kulturellen Transfers neu in den Blick genommen.
