God, Biblical Stories and Psychoanalytic Understanding

Edited by Rainer Kessler and Patrick Vandermeersch. In the process of reading religious texts we have a triangle with text, reader and God at the extreme points. But how are these points connected? The articles in the book discuss this question. They focus on biblical texts, and they make use of different psychoanalytic approaches. The book deals with the biblical subjects of the «bloody bridegroom» in Ex 4, the Oedipus complex in the book of Esther, the Saul-David story from a Kleinian perspective, and the creation of woman. This work also examines the question of interiorization and the images of God. 198 Seiten, broschiert (Peter Lang Verlag 2001) Mängelexemplar
