Erich Fromm in Mexico: 1950-1973

  • >Erich Fromm in Mexico: 1950-1973<: Drawing on his intimate knowledge of Erich Fromm’s personality and on the experience of many years as one of Fromm’s colleagues, the author – who belongs to the first generation of psychoanalysts trained in Mexico – describes Fromm’s activities during the years 1950 to 1973. Although he had originally come to Mexico to seek remedial treatment for his seriously ill wife, Henny, at medicinal baths, Fromm became more and more drawn to the task of training up-and-coming psychoanalysts at the National Autonomous University of Mexico and acquainting them with his vision of >humanist< psychoanalysis. The strict >teacher< Fromm – who was at first sometimes experienced as arrogant – underwent a transformation over the years into the humane and humorous >master<, for all his constant readiness to pounce on errors whenever his watchful eye detected them. Indeed, with his astonishing creative gifts Fromm remained an elusive and hardly approachable ideal. Lastly, Fromm’s writings in the abovementioned period are commented against the background of his involvement as teaching professor, instructing analyst, and organizer of congresses and guest lectures by distinguished contemporaries – e. g. by D. T. Suzuki (1960) on the subject of Zen Buddhism.
  • >Erich Fromm in Messico: 1950-1973<: Sulla base della sua intima conoscenza della personalità di Erich Fromm e della collaborazione con lui durata molti anni, l’autore descrive l’attività di Fromm negli anni dal 1950 al 1973. Dopo essere andato in Messico in origine per cercare il sollievo di cure termali per sua moglie Henny, gravemente malata, Fromm venne sempre più preso dal còmpito di formare gli aspiranti psicoanalisti presso l’Università Autonoma Nazionale del Messico e di trasmettere loro il suo punto di vista della psicoanalisi >umanistica<. L’>insegnante< Fromm, severo e a volte arrogante, si trasformò col tempo in un >maestro< amabile e spiritoso – anche se sempre attento a non lasciare passare gli errori – che, con la sua prodigiosa capacità creativa, restò un modello difficile da eguagliare. Sullo sfondo della sua attività personale come insegnante, analista didatta e organizzatore di congressi e di conferenze di contemporanei illustri – tra le quali quelle di D.T. Suzuki sul Buddismo (1960) – vengono anche commentati gli scritti di Fromm di questo periodo.
  • >Erich Fromm en México: 1950-1973<: Basado en un íntimo conocimiento de la personalidad de Erich Fromm y en el largo trabajo en común con él, el autor de este artículo describe la influencia de éste entre los años 1950-1973. Luego que Fromm llegara a México originariamente en busca de baños curativos para su mujer Henny – quien se encontraba gravemente enferma – Fromm se sintió cada vez más atraído por la idea de formar psicoanalistas en la Universidad Autónoma de México y de enseñarles su forma >humanista< del psicoanálisis. El severo y en apariencia a veces arrogante >profesor< Fromm se fue convirtiendo con el tiempo en el buen >maestro<, lleno de humor aunque siempre atento a no dejar pasar ningún error; un maestro que quedó , con su sorprendente capacidad creadora, como un ejemplo difícil de alcanzar. Los escritos de Erich Fromm son comentados en el marco de aquel tiempo y con el trasfondo de su influencia personal como profesor, formador de psicoanalistas y organizador de congresos y clases magistrales con famosos contemporáneos, entre otros D. T. Suzuki sobre el Budismo Zen (1960).
