Beschreibung
"e;In a work Freud characterized as "e;brilliant,"e; the author, an acknowledged pioneer in the study of the psychology of religion, analyzes a variety of rituals-couvade, puberty rites, the prayers and religious customs of modern Jews - in order to reconstruct the nature of the original impulses from which ritual is derived. He applies psychoanalytic methods of investigation to some of the most highly valued products of civilization-a task Freud called a "e;scientific duty."e; Connecting the superstitious beliefs of prehistoric times with contemporary practices, Dr. Reik illuminates the significance of modern and ancient religion. The author's lively style, combined with his scholarly documentation, makes this a book that will appeal alike to psychiatrists, psychologists, and students of comparative religion"e;
