Description

In the Jewish tradition, it is incumbent upon every generation to attempt to fi nd meaning in its history. Meaning is co-created within the context of the inter-subjective fi eld 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 infl uence of memory, narrative, and history in creating meaning within the dyadic relationship of analyst and patient. In “Answering a Question with a Question: Contemporary Psychoanalysis and Jewish Thought,” 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.
