N2 - The lecture series The Causes of Human Aggression and Destructiveness presents the results of research published by Erich Fromm in his book The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness (1973). In the seventh and final lecture, Fromm speaks of specific human kinds of destructiveness beyond defending the interest of survival and other vital interests. Human beings – besides many other competencies – are also able to experience ecstasis in a psycho-spiritual sense as well as in an extraordinary destructive way. Among the forms of ecstatic destructiveness sadism attempts total control and omnipotence while necrophilia is attracted to all that is dead, decaying, not alive and mechanical. The lecture is followed by Fromm's answers to questions from the audience. – The lecture was given by Erich Fromm on the invitation of the Young Men's and Young Women's Hebrew Association at Kaufman Concert Hall.

N2 - The lecture series The Causes of Human Aggression and Destructiveness presents the results of research published by Erich Fromm in his book The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness (1973). In the sixth lecture, Fromm analyzes the defensive or reactive aggression if vital interests are attacked that is common to animal and humans. Nevertheless, there is a decisive difference by what is experienced as vital interest since humans can also imagine a fictitious threat of vital interest. After a reference to dominance-submission patterns in animals, the vital interests of humans and their potential paranoid thinking, but also their reaction to coercion, injustice and frustration are explicated. Of particular interest is the specifically human hostility: not only to stay alive but to stay sane, which is the equivalent of being alive in the mental sense. This particularity holds true if the vital interest of staying sane is represented by and linked to taboos or idols or connected with a narcissistic idealization of oneself, of ideas or ofinstitutions. Finally, Fromm speaks of faked threats to his vital interests due to brainwashing.– The lecture was given by Erich Fromm on the invitation of the Young Men's and Young Women's Hebrew Association at Kaufman Concert Hall.

N2 - The lecture series The Causes of Human Aggression and Destructiveness presents the results of research published by Erich Fromm in his book The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness (1973). In the fifth lecture, Fromm first underlines his psychodynamic perspective: that not the behavior as such but what behavior (also unconsciously) motivates is the point of view to speak of human destructiveness. After criticizing Konrad Lorenz’s hydraulic theory of destructiveness Fromm speaks of humanism as an inhibiting factor to instrumental aggression and of compassion and empathy in the relationship of humans to animals. In addition to playful and instrumental aggression this lecture presents a third type of destructiveness which has no aggressive motivation: organizational destructiveness. Whether or not this type implies aggressive motivation is illustrated by the difference between international wars and civil wars. – The discussion concludes with audience questions. – The lecture was given by Erich Fromm on the invitation of the Young Men's and Young Women's Hebrew Association at Kaufman Concert Hall.

N2 - The lecture series The Causes of Human Aggression and Destructiveness presents the results of research published by Erich Fromm in his book The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness (1973). In the first part of the fourth lecture Fromm discusses the connection between violence and environmental conditions by particularly drawing on Father Wasson's experiences with orphaned and often criminal children. For Fromm humans are not destructive because of their instinctual resp. animal inheritance; on the contrary, they are much more destructive than animals. Hence one has to search for the specific conditions of human existence to explain human destructiveness. According to the conditions one can differentiate between different kinds of human. A first type that is described in this lecture is playful destruction as a destruction without destructive intention – as for instance practiced in Zen Buddhism. A second type of destruction without necessarily having a destructive intention is instrumental destructiveness. In the last part of this lecture Fromm speaks from inhibitory factors to exercise instrumental destruction: Why don't people steal and kill if they want something? – The lecture was given by Erich Fromm on the invitation of the Young Men's and Young Women's Hebrew Association at Kaufman Concert Hall.

N2 - The lecture series The Causes of Human Aggression and Destructiveness presents the results of research published by Erich Fromm in his book The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness (1973). The third lecture begins with a moment of silence for Martin Luther King, who was recently assassinated. In view of this act of violence, Fromm distinguishes between „not hating, not judging, and understanding, on the one hand, and, at the same time, being utterly realistic and unsentimental”. Then Fromm returns to Freud's theory of aggression and the question of how, according to Freud, the potential for aggression can be reduced. This is followed by empirical findings, as described in detail by Fromm in his 1973 book, which contradict Freud's ideas about an aggression instinct. However, comparative aggression research also shows „that man is much more destructive than animals are, that hardly any animal species equals man in viciousness, aggressiveness, destructiveness”. – The lecture was given by Erich Fromm on the invitation of the Young Men's and Young Women's Hebrew Association at Kaufman Concert Hall.

N2 - The lecture series The Causes of Human Aggression and Destructiveness presents the results of research published by Erich Fromm in his book The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness (1973). The first lecture takes a critical look at Freud's theory of the death instinct according to which humans are driven towards death and destruction, and that this manifests outwardly as aggression. A second critical look refers to the theories by Konrad Lorenz published in his book On Aggression (1963), which explores the idea that animals are naturally inclined to fight within their own species for resources. – The lecture was given by Erich Fromm on the invitation of the Young Men's and Young Women's Hebrew Association at Kaufman Concert Hall.

In this lecture, Fromm discusses Freud’s concept of the Oedipus complex. For Fromm the early primary attachment based on an unconditioned (motherly) love is decisive for the development of the child and for mental health. The experience of conditioned (fatherly) love enables the child to cope with separation anxiety and to reach further levels of individuation. At the same time the social structures have an impact on parents and children as well. The lecture The lecture (76’) is followed by Fromm's answers (19’) to questions from the audience.

In this lecture, Fromm examines Freudian and humanistic theories about passionate strivings for human behavior. Freud theorized that humans are fearful, isolated machines governed by the “pleasure principle,” which causes them to act in ways to gain satisfaction for themselves. For Fromm humans are primarily related to the world, to others and to themselves, and frustration and suffering arise when humans are unable to achieve this being related by reason and love.

After addressing audience questions about the previous lecture, Fromm analyzes Sigmund Freud’s concept of the unconscious. Freud viewed the unconscious primarily as something dark that must be kept repressed. For Fromm the unconscious represents all human potentialities – the good and the bad ones –, while what we are aware of is only a small sector social filters permit to come to awareness.

After addressing audience questions about the previous lecture, Fromm analyzes Sigmund Freud’s theories about the unconscious and conscious mind. Freud viewed the unconscious mind as the representation of the dark and unnatural forces that prevent a person from acting rationally and consciousness as >to be aware of being.< Fromm also explains Freud’s interpretation of repression and the effects of repression on the mind. He then describes how the unconscious mind doesn’t truly exist, but rather, is an attribute or form of human experience. The discussion concludes with audience questions.

In the forth lecture on >The Concept of God< Fromm first reminds to the idea of alternativism and the question of sin and repent-ance in Jewish tradition and particularly in the psalms. The second part discusses what God contributes to human history and how the concept of God has developed throughout history. To Moses, God reveals himself as the Nameless One—and any statement about God becomes idolatry. From this follows: Man must make his own history, and God does not interfere in this history with anything that changes man's heart. It's up to man to decide and act.

The third lecture on> The Concept of History< begins with the story of Adam and Eve, which already shows that, for the Hebrew Bi-ble, history is the result of human decisions, even if these are wrong decisions. Histo-ry begins with alienation and aims at another level of unity where man is fully devel-oped and at home in the world. According to the concept of Messianic time man is the maker of history and his own creator. Isaiah describes this new harmony as peace. Of how the times of the Messiah will be brought about Fromm differentiates between two versions: In the first the Messiah is a symbol of the new time; he ap-pears when man is ready. In the other – apocalyptic one – the Messiah will come when man is completely dehumanized. Finally Fromm discusses the paradox of hope.

The second lecture on >The Nature of Man< starts with Fromm’s understanding of the Hebrew Bible, arguing that the concept of man is de-mythologized and de-idealized. The problem of humans lies in the inclina-tion for incestuous fixation to blood, soil, and idols, that liberates from the obliga-tion and responsibility to make choices and from the task to arrive at freedom. This passion to remain bound to that behind which and in which he can find shelter is the opposite of the tendency to grow and to unfold which is common to all living system. Religion can serve either the one or the other goal. For Fromm the whole Old Testament is a story of wandering, of emigration, and never a story of settle-ment – which particularly holds true for the Messianic idea of the prophets or for ritual symbols of the Matzahs and the Sukkah. The function of the Prophets is pre-cisely that of alternativism. Against the backdrop of the choice between incestuous fixation and longing for freedom humans are confronted with the alternative conse-quences of each course. Those alternatives are exemplified in the lecture by exam-ples. Y1 - 1964 ER - TY - GEN A1 - Fromm, Erich T1 - Humanism and the Hebrew Bible. Lecture 1: What Is Humanism?

N2 - The lecture series >Humanism and the Hebrew BiblYou Shall Be as Gods. A Radical Interpretation of the Old Testament and Its Tradition< which was published in 1966. The first lecture discusses humanism as a global philosophy about man: that every human being carries within himself all of humanity, good and bad, emphasizing the idea of the dignity of man, the idea of human freedom, the idea of the capacity of man to perfect himself in the process of individual and of historical life. The lecture underlines the contribution of humanist thinkers of the last few centuries. Then their humanistic ideas about human dignity and our capaci-ty for tolerance, freedom, reason, and love are discussed in relation to the Bible and to Talmudic tradition. According to Fromm today's humanism has arisen to a double threat to humanity, the threat of physical extinction by nuclear weapons and the threat that humans are transformed more and more into things.

The second lecture introduces in Fromm’s concept of necrophilia – a specific type of human destructiveness that is attracted by destruction and by all that is not alive. He presents traits of a necrophilous person and of a machine minded culture and contrasts necrophilia with biophilia, the love of life. Finally, he discusses the difference between necrophilia and Freud's concept of the death instinct. – In his book The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness (1973) Fromm analyzes necrophilia in detail and in a more differentiated way. – The lecture (57’) is followed by Fromm's answers (15’) to questions from the audience.

N2 - Erich Fromm's book The Heart of Man (1964) contains three chapters dealing with the origins of human aggression and destructiveness. The three-part lecture series >The Psychological Roots of War and Destruction< Fromm gave at the invitation of the New York Young Men's and Young Women's Hebrew Association in April 1963. The lectures are based on the manuscript for the book The Heart of Man. Part 1 addresses two fundamentally different views of human nature: whether humans are by nature sheep or wolves—in other words, whether humans have an innate type of aggression that seeks to destroy. Fromm distinguishes between five types of human destructiveness. In the first part, he discusses >playful aggression,< >reactive aggression,< and >compensatory hostility.< – In his book The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness (1973) Fromm revisits the question, based on empirical findings, and concludes that there are three types of destructiveness that can only be found in humans: sadistic cruelty, narcissistic violence, and necrophilic destructiveness. The lecture (48’) is followed by Fromm's answers (17’) to questions from the audience. Y1 - 1963 ER - TY - GEN A1 - Fromm, Erich T1 - Beyond the Chains of Illusion.
