«L'arte di amare» is Erich Fromm's philosophy essay, published by Arnoldo Mondadori in paperback (168 pages, in Italian).
Fromm argues that love is not a spontaneous feeling but an art that demands knowledge, effort and maturity. Against the idea that loving means being loved, he proposes love as the answer to the problem of human existence. The essay examines brotherly, motherly, erotic, self-love and love of God, and its decay in Western society.
Published in 1995 in the Mondadori top collection, translated by Marilena Damiani.
For readers of philosophy and psychology interested in Erich Fromm's thought and in the analysis of affective relationships.
