Dreams and transference
(1996)
>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.
