Freud's relationship with his Judaism - his by virtue of his self-
description as a 'fanatical Jew' - was framed by two of his
convictions. He was centered both by his passionate cultural
affiliation and by his atheism. Within these internal guideposts
lay a Jewish life layered by tensions, pleasures, and
identifications. His creation - psychoanalysis - has labored to
honor its Jewish influences. Recent studies of these insights have
contributed to the current interest in listening more carefully to
the individual meanings of analysands' religious life. This lecture
series was designed to introduce to the public both the
similarities and the differences between the psychoanalytic and the
Jewish world views. The contributors are among the thought leaders
of our generation who work at the interface of the intrapsychic and
religious states of mind. We learn how each has influenced the
other and perhaps how each has been enriched by the other. A tour
de force delving into the influence of Freud's Jewish roots on the
development of psychoanalysis.
