Demonstrating the connections between contemporary psychoanalysis,
Jewish thought and Jewish history, this volume is a significant
contribution to the traditions of dialogue, debate and
change-within-continuity that epitomize these disciplines. The
authors of this volume explore the cross-disciplinary connections
between psychoanalysis and Jewish thought, while seeking out the
resonance of new meanings, to exemplify the uncanny similarities
that exist between ancient Rabbinic methods of interpretation and
contemporary psychoanalytic theory and methodology, particularly
the centrality of the question and the deconstruction of narrative.
In doing so, this collaboration addresses the bi-directional
influence between, and the relevance of, the Jewish interpretive
tradition and psychoanalysis to provide readers with renewed
insight into key topics such as Biblical text and midrash,
religious traditions, trauma, gender, history, clinical work and
the legacies of the Holocaust on psychoanalytic theory. Creating an
intimate environment for interdisciplinary dialogue, this is an
essential book for students, scholars and clinicians alike, who
seek to understand the continued significance of the multiple
connections between psychoanalysis and Jewish thought.
Inquiry, questioning, and wonder are defining features of both
psychoanalysis and the Jewish tradition. The question invites
inquiry, analysis, discussion, debate, multiple meanings, and
interpretation that continues across the generations. If questions
and inquiry are the mainstay of Jewish scholarship, then it should
not be surprising that they would be central to the psychoanalytic
method developed by Sigmund Freud. The themes taken up in this book
are universal: trauma, traumatic reenactment, intergenerational
transmission of trauma, love, loss, mourning, ritual these subjects
are of particular relevance and concern within Jewish thought and
the history of the Jewish people, and they raise questions of great
relevance to psychoanalysis both theoretically and clinically. In
Answering a Question with a Question: Contemporary Psychoanalysis
and Jewish Thought: A Tradition of Inquiry, Editors, Aron and
Henik, have brought together an international collection of
contemporary scholars and clinicians to address the interface and
mutual influence of Jewish thought and modern psychoanalysis, two
traditions of inquiry.

In the Jewish tradition, it is incumbent upon every generation to
attempt to find meaning in its history. Meaning is co-created
within the context of the inter-subjective field of a meeting of
minds. Psychoanalysis, in some respects like the Jewish tradition
from which it emerged, represents a body of thought about man's
relation to himself and to others, and places great value on the
influence of memory, narrative, and history in creating meaning
within the dyadic relationship of analyst and patient. In
