WHAT IT MEANS TO GWW UP PREFACE This book should be valuable in
dealing with per sonality problems. It should help young people to
understand themselves, and should be a resource to parents and
teachers, and to all others who deal with children and youth. We
must teach youth to face calmly the facts, the tasks and
difficulties of actual, everyday life and to master them, for it is
not a cold abstract theory or a world-forgetting ideal morality
which we are called upon to transmit to the new generation. Which
means, at the same time, that we must show how one can recognize,
understand, and master ones qwn peculiarities, ones own tasks and
diffi culties. We must teach the art of growing up. That the
practical way of overcoming personality problems is always at the
same time also the ethical way may be a fact tremendously important
from philosophical and religious points of view. For the present we
cannot let it be a determining factor in our psychological problem.
Young people are not able, as a rule, to make the right decision so
long as they perceive moral rightness only on theoretical grounds.
It is true, however, that they learn quickly PREFACE and simply to
take the usable way as soon as they have come to the conviction
that here, in this con crete specific case, it is the only
possible, practical way out In this book only facts and their
connections have been set forth, and certain practical inferences
have been pointed out. Everything else, the discussion of the
premises and the development of the point of view philosophically.,
must be left to the reader. We can and must help young people
understand their experiences and deduce the necessary conclu sions.
But tlieir point of yiewtheir life philosophy, their religio, they,
inust work out for themselves. They cannot be absolved from this
most difficult and most important task in life. We can assist in
the preparation for it, but the final decision in this mat ter each
person must make alone and for himself. Therefore in this book the
endeavor is made, over and again, to induce the reader to think for
himself and to judge these psychological problems for him self. He
shall seek his own point of view, call his own experiences into
council, develop his own judg ment, deepen it and correct it over
and again until in this way he becomes mature, grows up, gains
wisdom. In different countries on the continent, soon after the
appearance of this book, it so happened that sev vi PREFACE eral
teachers began to read it with, their classes. Quite a number of
results, in the form of letters, articles and also applications for
instance to va rious novels and plays, have been collected. It
would be valuable for the psychology of adolescence, and also
possibly of great interest for comparative folk psychology, if
similar results from within the range of Anglo-Saxon culture might
be received. FRITZ KUNKEL, M. D. October, 1936. CONTENTS Preface v
