Cain's act / Massimo Recalcati ; translated from the Italian by Will Schutt. by Recalcati, Massimo, author. New York, NY : Europa Editions, 2022. Subjects Cain (Biblical figure)   Good and evil -- Psychological aspects. ISBN:  9781609458157 (paperback) : 160945815X (paperback) Description:  105 pages ; 18 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  "From one of Italy's most renowned philosophers and psychoanalysts, an urgent and stirring reflection on violence, morality, and our relationship with the Other. What lies at the foundation of human history and life in a society? According to Massimo Recalcati, it is not the sentiment of love for one's neighbor preached by Jesus in the Gospels but the brutal hatred and violence depicted in the story of Cain and Abel. As timely as it is brilliant, this essay examines Cain's murderous act through the lens of psychoanalysis, showing how delusions of self-sufficiency and individual perfection lie at the deepest roots of fear and violence in our societies. True completeness can only be achieved through others--not despite them. This, argues Recalcati, is the lesson of Cain, one that resonates powerfully in our time." --publisher's website.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 222.11092 Re Checked In Add Copy to MyList
