“MOSES AND MONOTHEISM” Panel Discussion
Special Event at Temple Ahavat Achim (86 Middle St., Gloucester)
Sunday, November 23rd from 1 pm to 2:30 pm
Sigmund Freud was one of the most important thinkers of the 20th century. His discoveries of the make-up of the human psyche, were, in their time, world-shaking.
The animal self, the id, (or, more correctly, the “it”) lives together with a controlling instinct, the super-ego, (or “over I”), which develops as the child develops as is not complete until we mature, and the ego, (or the “I”) the conscious self, which is the human as he knows himself, must work together in the person, to provide a rational, but emotional self. From this knowledge Freud fashioned the science of psychoanalysis.
There are those who choose to view Freud as an atheist. However, Freud himself wrote in his autobiographical sketch “…my parents were Jews, and I have remained a Jew.”
While he was dying of cancer, Freud rushed into print his facit on Judaism, “Moses and Monotheism”. It was to be the last of his many essays. In it he applies the tools of psychoanalysis and the mind of a scientist to theorize about the origins and the monotheistic basis of his Jewish faith, and the Christian faith which followed.
Significantly, Sigmund Freud chose to die, as assisted suicide, on Yom Kippur, 1939. This year is the seventy-fifth anniversary of his death, and we are marking that anniversary by holding a discussion of the radical thoughts contained in “Moses and Monotheism”, albeit two months after the actual anniversary.
The panel discussing the essay, in which the public is encouraged to participate, will consist of Philip Cutter, M.D., a retired psychiatrist, Vincent Panetta, Ph. D., a professor of psychoanalysis, and supervising analyst, and Seth Yorra, Dr. jur., a lawyer and dramatist, who has also received an M.A. as a psychoanalytical counselor.
PLEASE CLICK HERE TO RSVP!
Selections from “Moses and Monotheism” to read in preparation for this selection are available for download or at the TAA office from Natalia, (978) 281-0739.
