I reread this and other works by Reich on occasion. He is pedantic, and also, later in life, decided he was surrounded by idiots (he was half right) and had to do everything himself, like discover the principles of a new energy source based on the human sexuality, to give you an idea! But I think he is very convincing in his manner of moralizing from basic principles, and he relates many of mankind's problems to repression of human sexuality, in a way that is kind of convincing although disturbi...
Από τα καλύτερα βιβλία που έχω διαβάσει πάνω σε αυτή την θεματολογία. Καλύπτει επιτυχώς -πάλι- ο Ράιχ όλες τις πτυχές του ανθρώπου και ε προσωπικό επίπεδο, αλλά και σε ομαδικό 0κοινωνικό. Κατακρίνει την κοινωνία και τους τρόπους που λειτουργεί κάνοντας αρκετούς παραλληλησμούς με τον Χριστό κι αποσαφηνίζοντας κάποιες έννοιες που έχουμε "μπερδέψει" στο μυαλό μας. Μας μεταφράζει τους πραγματικούς σκοπούς της θρησκείας και τα αληθινά λόγια του Χριστού χωρίς κανένα ίχνος φανατισμού και χωρίς να γίνετ...
This book by controversial psychiatrist Wilhelm Reich is unlikely to appeal to traditional Christian believers. Reich theorises that Jesus must have had sex with one or more of the women who surrounded him during his ministry. If Jesus was a naturally loving individual, Reich concludes, he must have exhibited the free genital expression intrinsic to a healthy character structure. Reich was not a traditional believer. He views Jesus as a man whose presence had a profound impact on the world becau...
Wilhelm Reich treats Christ as a universal value rather than a religious character to analyze the history, the dilemma and the potential of human Freedom.
In a way this book is more curious than interesting, but it is remarkable in that Reich somehow intuits a lot of the teachings of Jesus in a very elemental way, even if it remains wrapped up in his fascination with the body. Somehow that should perhaps not surprise us, for the student whom Freud picked over Jung to defend himself and his system against "the rising tide of occultism," as represented by Jung in his mind. With Reich, Freud wanted to erect a sexual rampart against such nefarious inf...
Don't let the fact that Reich turned into something of a nut later in his intellectual career stop you from enjoying his mid-career output. This is a great book containing his most powerful critique of the religious impulse. I'm just going to include some of my notes. I don't know if these are direct quotes or paraphrases. (My comments in brackets.)p 498All lost actual virtues of nature reappear as ideal virtues, to be striven after. With this, the dichotomy between the Devil, who is a perverted...
Ένα άρθρο μου, το οποίο δημοσιεύθηκε στον ‘Αναγνώστη’, την 1.5.2020 και χρησιμοποιεί πολλά στοιχεία από την "Δολοφονία τού Χριστού" του Wilhelm Reich. Ο πραγματικός τίτλος τού άρθρου είναι "Η διαρκής δολοφονία τού Χριστού: “Η δασκάλα τού Πιάνου” (2001), του Μίκαελ Χάνεκε" κι όχι "Η γενεαλογία τού Κακού", με τον οποίο δημοσιεύθηκε στο περιοδικό. Το άρθρο επιχειρεί μία προσέγγιση μέσω της θεωρίας τού μεγάλου Wilhelm Reich (1897-1957), στην ταινία "Η δασκάλα τού πιάνου" (2001), του συμπατριώτη του
Wow read the book and i love it
O título pode sugerir alguma forma de aproximação do tema pela ciência, em detrimento das escrituras sagradas e do aspecto religioso. O autor, o cientista Wilhelm Reich, trata o tema de um ponto de vista provocador que certamente leva em consideração o sentimento pessoal dos envolvidos e também sagrado e religioso. O amor é o centro da questão como pode-se perceber a partir da leitura prosaica dos capítulos do livro. Também a natureza é visualisada e considerada como criação de Deus ou mesmo o p...
