Philosophie de la Bible hébraïque et psychanalyse

By Jean-Gérard Bursztein

Book Description

In this thoughtful exploration, Jean-Gérard Bursztein examines a fundamental tension that shapes our contemporary spiritual landscape: the apparent conflict between ancient Jewish wisdom and modern rational thought. Rather than accepting the common assumption that these two worldviews are incompatible, this philosophical investigation seeks to uncover the deeper connections between traditional Jewish teachings and psychoanalytic understanding.

The author challenges the prevailing notion that modernity requires a complete break from religious tradition, questioning whether true innovation actually emerges from such radical separation. Drawing on insights from various contemporary philosophers, Bursztein argues that Jewish tradition, having weathered centuries of secular challenges long before the Enlightenment, offers valuable perspectives on the current crisis facing modern civilization.

This work presents multiple approaches to transcending the polarized view that positions Judaism as outdated in the face of modernity's claims to master reality and meaning. Instead of viewing these perspectives as mutually exclusive, the author proposes a more nuanced understanding that embraces both tradition and innovation in productive tension.

For readers interested in the intersection of spirituality and psychology, this book offers a sophisticated framework for understanding how ancient wisdom traditions can inform contemporary approaches to human consciousness and meaning-making. The text invites thoughtful consideration of how continuity and change might coexist in our spiritual and intellectual development.
