This prize-winning book provides fascinating insights into the controversy surrounding Freud’s feelings toward his own Judaism. Yerushalmi analyzes Freud’s intentions in writing Moses and Monotheism—his only work specifically devoted to a Jewish theme. He presents the work as Freud’s psychoanalytic history of the Jews, Judaism, and the Jewish psyche—his attempt, under the shadow of Nazism, to discover what has made the Jews what they are.
