Twenty-second printing July 1961 Dust jacket in great condition with a few minor marks and tiny tears Signed Escape from Freedom is a book by psychoanalyst Erich Fromm, first published under that title in the United States by Farrar & Rinehart[1] in 1941 and a year later as The Fear of Freedom in the UK by Routledge & Kegan Paul. It was translated into German and first published in 1952 under the title Die Angst vor der Freiheit (The Fear of Freedom). In the book, Fromm explores humanity's shifting relationship with freedom, how individual freedom can cause fear, anxiety, and alienation, and how many people seek relief by relinquishing freedom. He describes how authoritarianism can be a mechanism of escape for such people, with special emphasis on the psychosocial conditions that enabled the rise of Nazism.

Trade Paperback. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION TRADE PAPERBACK. 1961. --'MARX'S CONCEPT OF MAN'-- by ERICH FROMM. Signed, Inscribed by Author on front page-- 'To Robert Hagopian with best wishes, E. Fromm'. "Marx's Concept of Man" is Erich Fromm's analysis of Karl Marx's ideas about human nature and how those ideas informed his economic and political theories. Karl Marx did not believe, as many contemporary sociologists and psychologists do, that there is such a thing as the nature of man-- that man at birth is like a blank sheet of paper on which the culture writes its text. Marx started with the idea that 'man' is a recognizable and ascertainable entity, that man can be defined as man not only biologically, anatomically and physiologically, but also psychologically. Erich Fromm "Marx's Concept of Man" includes translations of original economic and philosophical manuscripts of Karl Marx. 1st edition trade paperback-- minor outer wear, edge wear & light scuffing. Interior is clean and unmarked. Spine shows some soft creasing, binding is good and secure. Signed by Author(s). Book.

First editionÂof this groundbreaking international bestseller that has shown millions of readers how to achieve rich, productive lives by developing their capacities for love. Octavo, original cloth. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper, "Fur Hans und Ruth.Eric August 1957." Very good in a good dust jacket with some wear. First editions are uncommon signed and inscribed. The Art of Loving argues that the active character of true love involves four basic elements: care, responsibility, respect, and knowledge (p. 24). Each of these is difficult to define and can differ markedly depending on the people involved and their circumstances. Seen in these terms, love is hard work, but it is also the most rewarding kind of work. One of the book's concepts is self-love. According to Fromm, loving oneself is quite different from arrogance, conceit or egocentrism. Loving oneself means caring about oneself, taking responsibility for oneself, respecting oneself, and knowing oneself (e.g. being realistic and honest about one's strengths and weaknesses). In order to be able to truly love another person, one needs first to love oneself in this way. Fromm calls the general idea of love in contemporary Western society à goà sme à deux â" a relationship in which each person is entirely focused on the other, to the detriment of other people around them. The current belief is that a couple should be a well-assorted team, sexually and functionally, working towards a common aim. This is in contrast with Fromm's description of true love and intimacy, which involves willful commitment directed toward a single unique individual. One cannot truly love another person if one does not love all of mankind including oneself. The book includes explorations of the theories of brotherly love, motherly and fatherly love, erotic love, self-love, and the love of God (pp. 7â"76), and an examination into love's disintegration in contemporary Western culture (pp. 77â"98). To be able to fully comprehend the ideas illustrated in Fromm's book, one must understand the concept of paradoxical thought, or the ability to reconcile opposing principles in one same instance. Fromm himself explains paradoxical thought in the chapters dedicated to the love of God and erotic love.
