Description: Moses and Monotheism by Sigmund Freud Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Presents Freuds classic study of the Moses legend and its role in the growth of Judaism and Christianity. Publisher Description This volume contains Freuds speculations on various aspects of religion, on the basis of which he explains certain characteristics of Jewish people in their relations with Christians. From an intensive study of the Moses legend, Freud comes to the startling conclusion that Moses himself was an Egyptian who brought from his native country the religion he gave to the Jews. He accepts the hypothesis that Moses was murdered in the wilderness, but that his memory was cherished by the people and that his religious doctrine ultimately triumphed. Freud develops his general theory of monotheism, which enabled him to throw light on the development of Judaism and Christianity. Author Biography Sigmund Freud was born in 1856 in Moravia; between the ages of four and eighty-two his home was in Vienna: in 1938 Hitlers invasion of Austria forced him to seek asylum in London, where he died in the following year.His career began with several years of brilliant work on the anatomy and physiology of the nervous system. He was almost thirty when, after a period of study under Charcot in Paris, his interests first turned to psychology, and another ten years of clinical work in Vienna(at first in collaboration with Breuer, an older colleague) saw the birth of his creation, psychoanalysis. This began simply as a method of treating neurotic patients by investigating their minds, but it quickly grew into an accumulation of knowledge about the workings of the mind in general, whether sick or healthy. Freud was thus able to demonstrate the normal development of the sexual instinct in childhood and, largely on the basis of an examination of dreams, arrived at his fundamental discovery of the unconscious forces that influence our everyday thoughts and actions. Freuds life was uneventful, but his ideas have shaped not only many specialist disciplines, but the whole intellectual climate of the last half-century Details ISBN 0394700147 ISBN-13 9780394700144 Title Moses and Monotheism Author Sigmund Freud Format Paperback Year 1955 Pages 192 Edition 1st Publisher Random House USA Inc GE_Item_ID:2618337; About Us Grand Eagle Retail is the ideal place for all your shopping needs!
