Legacies of the Occult - Marsha Aileen Hewitt - Bog

- Psychoanalysis, Religion, and Unconscious Communication

Bag om Legacies of the Occult

Early psychological theorists such as William James, Frederic W. H. Myers, and Sigmund Freud all agreed that telepathy (aka thought transference, or unconscious communication) exists. Yet the phenomenon was largely ignored by subsequent generations of psychoanalysts, persisting only as a subterranean, quasi-spiritual presence, and has only regained significant interest recently. In Legacies of the Occult, Marsha Aileen Hewitt reviews the differing theories of James, Myers, and Freud, and extends their ideas to the field of religious psychology. The result is an insightful and highly original work that will be of interest to scholars of psychology, philosophy, and theology, as well as to the general reader.
