Erich Fromm Libri

Un classico della psicologia questo Escape from Freedom, pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1941. Secondo Fromm, ciascun essere umano abbisogna di un orientamento nel mondo, di una sorta di mappa, di un insieme di spiegazioni che giustifichino la sua esistenza. E questo il francofortese fa in tutti i suoi libri, proponendosi come guida sicura e offrendo un sistema di riferimento articolato che permette al lettore di approfondire la conoscenza di se stesso, degli altri e della società in cui vive. In questo saggio, che forse è il più famoso e importante, spiega come la libertà sia un grande valore, ma anche un peso insostenibile per la maggioranza degli uomini, che cercano così di fuggire alla responsabilità, rifugiandosi nel sadomasochismo, nell'autoritarismo o nel conformismo. Questa frequente e diffusa fuga dalla libertà spiega gli inquietanti totalitarismi del Novecento.

È la prevalenza della modalità esistenziale dell'avere che per Fromm ha determinato la situazione dell'uomo contemporaneo, ridotto a ingranaggio della macchina burocratica, manipolato nei gusti, nelle opinioni, nei sentimenti dai governi, dall'industria, dai mass media; costretto a vivere in un ambiente degradato, con lo spettro incombente del conflitto nucleare. Fromm delinea quindi le caratteristiche di un'esistenza incentrata sulla modalità dell'essere, in quanto attività autenticamente produttiva e creativa, che offra all'individuo e alla società la possibilità di realizzare un nuovo e più autentico umanesimo.

"I malati sono sani. E i sani, in realtà, sono malati". In questa tesi paradossale e provocatoria, Fromm ha riassunto decenni di studi sulla normalità, di cui questo libro è il risultato. Servendosi dei concetti di "carattere sociale" Fromm sviluppa qui una patologia della normalità che vuole essere anche un punto di partenza per quella visione umanistica dell'uomo di cui lo stesso Fromm è stato il grande propugnatore: il volume, pubblicato dopo la morte dell'autore, riunisce scritti e conferenze sull'argomento dal 1953 al 1974.

«Ogni tentativo di comprendere l’uomo deve fare i conti con le sue tre componenti: il bagaglio biologico e istintuale, le influenze della società in cui vive e i problemi etico-religiosi che deve affrontare». In questa prospettiva di indagine così sinteticamente illustrata, le due opere qui raccolte costituiscono nel loro insieme una presentazione sistematica del pensiero di Erich Fromm. In Personalità, libertà, amore, il grande psicoanalista espone le sue idee e i risultati delle sue ricerche: da quelle sulla personalità produttiva e improduttiva a quelle sull’alienazione, dall’esistenzialismo alle tecniche di psicoterapia. Ne La missione di Sigmund Freud, Fromm si confronta con la figura del suo maestro, con il suo insegnamento, con la sua straordinaria eredità.

Amare non significa possedere in maniera esclusiva, limitare la libertà del partner o escludersi dalla vita del mondo; al contrario l'amore può aprirsi all'intero universo, spalancando inattese prospettive. Un trattato sull'amore che insegna a sviluppare la propria personalità e raggiungere la pienezza affettiva.

Chi è l'uomo? "La vita consiste nel nascere continuamente. Ma è una tragedia che la maggior parte di noi muoia prima di aver iniziato a vivere." Erich Fromm ha dedicato la sua vita a rispondere a domande fondamentali sull'esistenza umana. Per lui, la domanda "Chi è l'uomo?" porta direttamente al cuore del problema. I contributi in questo volume si basano su conferenze e conversazioni trasmesse inizialmente in radio, e trasmettono i pensieri fondamentali di Fromm su questioni sociali e psicologiche. L'alto grado di autenticità e la potenza del linguaggio rivelano quanto Fromm fosse permeato da una profonda comprensione e amore per l'umanità. "Il vero pentimento e la vergogna ad esso associata sono l'unica esperienza umana in grado di impedire che lo stesso crimine venga ripetuto. In loro assenza, si ha l'impressione che il crimine non sia mai stato commesso... Da millenni, l'uomo vive in un sistema in cui il vincitore non deve pentirsi, poiché il potere è equiparato al diritto."

Contro la brama del possesso, contro l'avidità del potere, lo spreco, la violenza, la prospettiva di un diverso atteggiamento verso la natura e la società, basato sull'altruismo e sull'amore. L'opera più significativa di Erich Fromm (1900-80).

Dr Fromm considers The Heart of Man a counterpart to The Art of Loving. The present volume reveals the other face of Janus, however, as he's concerned here essentially with the nature of evil--& by the converse of its definition, good--& the human capacity for it. He equates evil with tendencies toward death, the regression to the prehuman mass against the good of progressing toward life & true humanness. He sees necrophilia, extreme narcissism & incestuous symbiosis as the "syndrome of decay." Persons are free to choose between evil & good, but previous choices have effects: the more choices made against life, the harder it is to avoid a hardened heart, to turn back. Yet this is almost always possible. In a social context, he observes the influence of a Hitler or Stalin & analyzes their appeal. More clinical than The Art of Loving, this will mainly be of interest in terms of its religious-phychological equation. It appears as the 12th volume in the Religious Perspectives series.--Kirkus (edited) Religious Perspectives--Ruth Nanda Anshen Foreword Man--Wolf or Sheep?

The book is a key to understanding Marx. Few thinkers have been as misunderstood as Karl Marx, and few ideas have been as misused as socialism. In this work, psychoanalyst Erich Fromm provides an in-depth introduction to the thinking of the young, humanistic philosopher. Fromm illustrates that Marx envisioned a human being who finds fulfillment in liberation from societal constraints. Marx's early writings depict a humanistic real utopia that has been perverted in the context of existing socialism. Fromm's original edition made these early writings accessible to the American public for the first time. In the introduction, Fromm clarifies many misunderstandings and misinterpretations of Marx, shedding light on his views and values regarding the concept of humanity. These insights are crucial for understanding the recent history of East and West and remain relevant in light of contemporary conflicts.

First published in 1968, the year of international-student confrontation and revolution, this classic challenges readers to choose which of two roads humankind ought to the one, leading to a completely mechanized society with the individual a helpless cog in a machine bent on mass destruction; or the second, being the path of humanism and hope.

In a world in which violence in every form seems to be increasing, Erich Fromm has treated this problem with deep perception in the most original and far-reaching work of his brilliant career. Fromm asks: what is there in the conditions of human existence to lead man to the orgies of destruction and violence in which he has indulged? By drawing on the findings of anthropology, palaeontogy, psychology and history; and including striking character analyses of Stalin, Hitler and Himmler, he shows how the failure to use our capacity for love and reason results in the development of the reverse: we wish to control life absolutely, or to destroy it.

It was Erich Fromm's conviction that psychoanalysis needs to retain Freud's essential insight into the unconscious while replacing his mechanistic-materialistic philosophy with a humanistic one. In this book, never before published in English, Fromm presents such a revision of psychoanalysis, one that is both humanistic and dialectical. The Revision of Psychoanalysis is Fromm's long-expected account of his own personal way of understanding and practicing psychoanalysis. Of special interest to today's readers are his continuing efforts to understand the meaning of sexuality, his critique of Herbert Marcuse's vision of psychoanalysis, and the implications of a Freudian analytical social psychology for the reform of social arrangements. The book is essential reading for psychologists and for social and political theorists in many disciplines. For psychoanalysts, it provides Fromm's most provocative and unique recommendations for the revision of psychoanalysis.

Erich Fromm fought long and hard for the rights and freedoms of the individual. He also recognized that fundamental to this pursuit is the promotion of self-knowledge. In encouraging people to analyze their own behavior, Fromm identified the crucial link between psychology and ethics that underpins all our actions. Moreover, he saw in this a way out of the meaningless impasse which he regarded as the plight of the modern human race. The task that Fromm sets himself, therefore, in Man for Himself is no less than to identify "what man is, how he ought to live, and how the tremendous energies within man can be released and used productively." The resulting book is ample witness to Fromm's success. It makes for exciting, illuminating, even life-changing reading.

A classic from one of the masters of psychotherapy, Erich Fromm.[Bokinfo].

This critique of contemporary capitalism established Fromm as one of the most controversial political thinkers of his generation, and was originally published to wide acclaim and even wider disapproval. schovat popis

In this classic work a noted psychoanalyst assesses the persistent tension between traditional religion and the underlying philosophy of psychoanalysis, which many believe regards the satisfaction of instinctive and material wishes as the sole aim of life.

First published in 1962, this is Erich Fromm's personal reflection on the overarching influence of Freud and Marx on his own life work.

"By the acclaimed psychologist ... Erich Fromm's On Disobedience persuasively examines how saying 'no' to power is essential to individual meaning and the preservation of a free society."--Back cover

Renowned psychoanalyst Erich Fromm investigates the universal language of symbols, expressed through dream and myths, and how it illuminates our humanity In this study, Erich Fromm opens up the world of symbolic language, “the one foreign language that each of us must learn.” Understanding symbols, he posits, helps us reach the hidden layers of our individual personalities, as well as connect with our common human experiences. By grasping the symbolic language of dreams, Fromm explains, we can then also understand the deeper wisdom of myths, art, and literature. This also gives us access to what we, and our society, usually repress. Fromm shares the history of dream interpretations, and demonstrates his analysis of many types of dreams.

Fromm's penetrating critique of Freud's contributions to modern thought enumerates his greatest discoveries while analyzing the ways in which these discoveries were narrowed and distorted by Freud's philosophical and personal premises

s/t: A Radical Interpretation of the Old Testament & Its Tradition

Collects the renowned psychoanalyst's lectures and writings on problematic relations between men and women

Examines the sociological factors influencing the evolution of psychoanalysis and discusses the relation between the theories of Freud and Marx

In the belief that political and economic conditions largely determine the psychological structure of man, Erich Fromm comments in this book on significant events such as the evolution of German politics, the Vietnam War, the Arab-Israeli conflict, terrorism, and many other topics, always considering the sociopsychological factors of action and the moral and human dimension of political decision-making. As Rainer Funk states in the introduction, "To understand the way of thinking, feeling, and acting of a man, one must know his passionate struggles, which are almost always hidden, and which for Erich Fromm are primarily manifestations of a process of identification with the demands of a particular culture, for which the man himself is essentially responsible." Therefore, those familiar with Fromm's thought will not be surprised that throughout his life he has been interested in politics and has participated in it according to his possibilities as a psychoanalyst and social psychologist. This selection of his unpublished writings offers an impression of how Fromm assumed this political responsibility.

Written by a Westerner whose life experience was as a Buddhist monastic, this collection of essays conveys a friendly spirit, in the manner of a wise and practical teacher. (Note: This title was previously published under ISBN 9781928706038. Due to technical issues a new ISBN had to be assigned. Rest assured that both versions of this title are exactly the same.)

Focusing on the author's warm empathy and humanistic perspective, this book offers insights into the author’s interactions with patients rather than delving into psychoanalytic techniques. It presents a compassionate approach to understanding human experiences, making it a valuable read for those interested in psychological perspectives that prioritize emotional connection and understanding.

The author records his unique opinions on child rearing and education, as practiced in the experimental school called Summerhill he has run in England for forty years.

Mada se smatra društvenim kritičarem, Erih From je prije svega bio psihoanalitičar našeg vremena. Ovi spisi spajaju dva aspekta razmišljanja, pokazujući kako on gradi na temelju frojdijanske teorije i kako je modfikuje svojim humanističkim stavovima. Erih From se više od pedeset godina bavio psihoanalizom; više od četrdeset godina bio je aktivan u Njujorku i Meksiko Sitiju kao učitelj, supervizor i predavač na institutima za psihoanalitičku obuku.

Einsichten und Gedanken aus Erich Fromms Werk - aus seiner Tätigkeit als Psychoanalytiker, aus seiner Erfahrung als Mensch.

Эрих Фромм - выдающий мыслитель ХХ века, один из основателей неофрейдизма. Работы Фромма пользуются широчайшей популярностью во всем мире - еще при жизни основные его труды, посвященные этическим и социально-психологическим вопросам природы человека, выдержали десятки переизданий миллионными тиражами. Одна из основополагающих работ Эриха Фромма - "Бегство от свободы" - посвящена психологическим аспектам власти, зависимости и обретения личностей независимости. "Может ли свобода стать бременем, непосильным для человека, чем-то таким, от чего он старается избавиться? Почему для одних свобода - заветная цель, а для других - угроза?". "Не существует ли - кроме врожденного стремления к свободе - и инстинктивной тяги к подчинению?.. Не является ли подчинение источником некоего скрытого удовлетворения; а если так, то в чем состоит его сущность?"

Erich Fromm betrachtet das Alte Testament als ein revolutionäres Werk, das eine zeitlose Vision für die Menschheit bietet. Seine humanistische Interpretation zeigt, wie die Bibel als Beispiel für die Entwicklung menschlicher Kräfte und die Förderung einer friedlichen Welt verstanden werden kann.

Na základě čeho je člověk duševně zdravý? Tak se ptá Erich Fromm ve svých přednáškách z let 1953–1974. To, co je ve společnosti přijato jako normální, může být podle autora ve skutečnosti patologické. V důsledku toho jedinec, který se vyznačuje společensky přijatou patologií, je vnímán jako adaptovaný člen společnosti, a naopak někdo vlastně duševně zdravý může trpět vyloučením do té míry, že se u něj projeví duševní nemoc. A tak je v nemocné společnosti, jež je dnes primárně řízena ekonomickými požadavky, podle Fromma tím zdravým a přizpůsobeným autoritářský, marketingový či nekrofilní charakter. K těmto úvahám přispěl Frommův pobyt v Mexiku, který mu dovolil nutný odstup od průmyslové společnosti soudobých Spojených států amerických. V Mexiku se totiž setkal s lidmi, kteří si dovolují být „líní“ a dávají přednost volnému času před vyděláváním peněz. Fromm zároveň ukazuje, že líný i aktivní je člověk ze svých vnitřních příčin, a tedy nemusí být k aktivitě nucen.

Wissen, was die eigene Person ausmacht. Bewusst aus eigenen Quellen leben. An die seelischen Ressourcen kommen, keine Fassadenexistenz führen, sondern intensiv fühlen: „Freude - das Ergebnis intensiven Lebens“ (E. Fromm).

Эрих Фромм - крупнейший мыслитель XX века, один из великой когорты "философов от психологии" и духовный лидер Франкфуртской социологической школы. Труды Эриха Фромма актуальны, ибо основной темой его исследований было раскрытие человеческой сущности

"Refah Toplumu" diye de adlandırabileceğimiz 20. yüzyılın teknolojik açıdan gelişmiş toplum düzeni, yüzyılın başındaki beklentilerin aksine, insanları mutlu edemedi. O zamanlar daha çok şeye "sahip olmak"ın, insanların ihtiyacı olan her türlü manevi doyumu onlara sağlayacağı düşünülüyordu. Ama görüldü ki, "olmak" ve "mutluluk" ayrı bir kalitedir ve bir yerden sonra "sahip olmak" ve "çok tüketim" ile de ters bir orantı içine girmektedir. Bu nedenle 21. yüzyıl öncesinde insanı gerçek özellikleri ile tanımak ve onun kendi güçlerini geliştirmesine imkan veren bir toplum yapısı kurmak gerekmektedir.

Este libro recoge ideas que fueron expuestas en algunos de los libros anteriores de Erich Fromm e intenta darles mas amplio desarrollo. El autor trata de demostrar que los mayores descubrimientos de Freud, el complejo de Edipo, el narcisismo y el instinto de la muerte, son aun poderosos y significativos.

В своей работе "Душа человека" Эрих Фромм сосредоточил внимание на изучении сущности зла, отмечая, что эта книга является в некотором смысле противоположностью другой, пожалуй, самой известной его книги - "Искусство любить". Рассуждая о природе зла, он приходит к выводу, что стремление властвовать почти всегда перетекает в насилие, и главную опасность для человечества представляют не "садисты и изверги", а обыкновенные люди, в руках которых сосредоточена власть.

Humanismus als konkret erlebter Glaube an den Menschen - das ist Erich Fromms Ideal. In den vorliegenden Schriften aus seinen letzten fünfzehn Lebensjahren formuliert er dieses Ideal neu. Fromm ist einer der bedeutendsten Humanisten des 20. Jahrhunderts und gleichzeitig ein unerbittlicher Kritiker der Industriegesellschaft.

Liebe zum Leben - sich auf das Leben einlassen, ohne es absolutem Sicherheitsdenken unterzuordnen.

Kırk dokuzuncu yıl dönümünde, milyonlarca okuyucuya gizli sevgi yeteneklerini geliştirerek zengin ve üretken bir yaşam sürmeyi gösteren uluslararası bir bestseller olan bu eser, sevginin yalnızca olgunluk, öz bilgi ve cesaretle birleştiği seviyede yaşanabildiğini vurgular. Sevgi, her sanat gibi, pratik ve konsantrasyon gerektirir; aynı zamanda gerçek bir içgörü ve anlayış da talep eder. Erich Fromm, klasik eserinde sevginin tüm yönlerini inceler; yalnızca yanlış kavramlar ve yüksek beklentilerle dolu romantik sevgiyi değil, kardeşlik sevgisini, erotik sevgiyi, öz sevgiyi, Tanrı sevgisini ve ebeveynlerin çocuklarına olan sevgisini de ele alır.

Mit Scharfsicht analysiert der Psychoanalytiker und Sozialphilosoph Erich Fromm die Beziehungen zwischen den Weltmächten Sowjetunion und USA zur Zeit des Kalten Krieges. Ein Dokument seines intensiven politischen Engagements und zugleich das bedeutende Werk des großen Humanisten darüber, was Politik ist und was sie sein könnte.

W "O nieposłuszeństwie" Erich Fromm pisze, że autorytarne dyktatury XX wieku wyprodukowały "człowieka organizacji", który ślepo podąża za dyrektywami, niezależnie od ich obrzydliwości. Jednocześnie w zachodnich demokracjach pojawił się rodzaj konformizmu, wywołany bardziej subtelnymi środkami masowego konsumpcjonizmu. W demokracjach, gdzie władza do wprowadzenia nieodwracalnej destrukcji spoczywa w rękach nielicznych, jednostka musi również zachować zdolność do sprzeciwu i powiedzenia "nie" tym, którzy sprawują władzę. W obliczu tych konformistycznych presji, w jakiejkolwiek formie się pojawiają, nowoczesny człowiek musi dążyć do autentycznego wyrazu, aby zachować swoje najgłębsze poczucie siebie. Fromm dostrzega, że zarówno kapitalizm, jak i totalitarny komunizm zmierzają w kierunku życia negującej biurokracji przemysłowej, i krytykuje jeden system za ignorowanie, a drugi za zdradzenie ideałów prawdziwego humanistycznego socjalizmu, w którym ludzie mają pierwszeństwo przed rzeczami, życie przed własnością, a praca przed kapitałem. "O nieposłuszeństwie" jest dziełem znaczącym XX wieku, które pokolenia czytelników będą traktować jako źródło inspiracji.

Qué significa ser obediente a la naturaleza humana y al objetivo de la sociedad, y desobediente a todo tipo de ideales e ideologías políticas: he aquí el problema central de este conjunto de ensayos, reunidos por el autor poco tiempo antes de su muerte, en 1980, un manifiesto personal que sintetiza las ideas fundamentales de una de los más importantes psicólogos y sociólogos del siglo XX. Fromm expone aquí su concepción de los requerimientos básicos para una vida humana plenamente realizada (necesidades de relación, de enraizamiento, de trascendencia y de identidad), y critica las estructuras sociales que obstaculizan su cumplimiento. Describe cómo las naciones técnicamente avanzadas han logrado un nuevo tipo de individuo -el homo consumens, un hombre consagrado a la posesión y al consumo, pero solitario, aburrido y ansioso: un hombre-organización peligrosamente obediente- y afirma que tanto el capitalismo como el comunismo totalitario se mueven hacia una burocracia industrial negadora de la vida, el primero por ignorar, y el otro por traicionar, los ideales de un socialismo auténticamente humanista en el cual los individuos prevalezcan sobre las cosas, la vida sobre la propiedad y el trabajo sobre el capital.

Eine tiefgreifende Kritik am Materialismus zugunsten eines Lebens mit Sinn. Das Leben im modernen Zeitalter begann, als die Menschen nicht mehr dem Willen der Natur ausgeliefert waren, sondern die Kontrolle über sie übernahmen. Wir bauten Pflanzen an, um nicht mehr auf das Sammeln angewiesen zu sein, und produzierten Flugzeuge, Züge und Autos für den Transport. Mit Fernsehern und Computern müssen wir das Haus nicht mehr verlassen, um die Welt zu sehen. Irgendwo in diesem Prozess ging die natürliche Neigung der Menschheit von einem Sein und dem Ausüben unserer eigenen menschlichen Fähigkeiten und Kräfte zu einem Haben über, indem wir Objekte besitzen und Werkzeuge nutzen, die unsere eigenen Fähigkeiten zum Denken, Fühlen und unabhängig Handeln ersetzen. Fromm argumentiert, dass positive Veränderungen – sowohl sozial als auch wirtschaftlich – aus dem Sein, Lieben und Teilen hervorgehen werden.

Ювілейне видання міжнародного бестселера, яке показало мільйонам читачів, як досягти багатого і продуктивного життя, розвиваючи свої приховані здібності до любові. Більшість людей не здатні любити на єдиному рівні, який справді має значення: любов, що складається з зрілості, самопізнання та мужності. Як і в кожному мистецтві, любов вимагає практики та концентрації, а також щирого усвідомлення і розуміння. У своїй класичній праці Еріх Фромм досліджує любов у всіх її аспектах — не лише романтичну любов, просякнуту хибними уявленнями та високими очікуваннями, але також братню любов, еротичну любов, любов до себе, любов до Бога та любов батьків до своїх дітей.

Cette étude à plusieurs voix sur les nombreux points de contact entre deux écoles de pensée a priori très éloignées l'une de l'autre est présentée ici dans sa septième édition.
