Synopsis of L'Évangile au risque de la psychanalyse, tome 1

«L'Évangile au risque de la psychanalyse, tome 1», by Françoise Dolto and Gérard Sévérin, is an essay on the Gospels and psychoanalysis (Seuil, paperback).

Dolto and Sévérin reread the gospels as a psychodrama: words, choice of phrases, and themes gain new meaning in light of the laws of the unconscious discovered by Freud. They analyze the unconscious of Jesus, of the writers, and of the first listeners, and connect the sacred texts with the experience of desire.

First volume of the «Points essais» collection from Seuil, published in French in 1980.

For readers interested in delving into the gospels from psychoanalytic theory and in the dialogue between religion and psychology.
