Synopsis "beyond the chains of illusion,my encounter with marx and freud"

First published in 1962 and long unavailable, BEYOND THE CHAINS OF ILLUSION is, only at first glance, a book about Marx and Freud--those two intellectual giants of the 20th century. Fromm here shows himself an outstanding interpreter of Marx. In all, Fromm's re-creation of the Freudian and Marxist way of thinking is, essentially, a look at the individual and society. BEYOND THE CHAINS OF ILLUSION will introduce many of today's readers to unknown aspects of Marx and Freud, as it also serves as a unique introduction to the life and mind of Erich Fromm as well. A new foreword by Fromm Literary Executor Rainer Funk puts this book into historic context and high relief.

Erich Fromm (1900-1980) was an influential psychoanalyst, sociologist, and German philosopher, whose work addressed humanistic psychology and the critical analysis of modern society. Educated at the Frankfurt School, he combined Marxism with Freudian psychoanalysis, exploring the relationship between individual and society. His books have had a lasting impact on psychology, philosophy, and politics, standing out for their focus on freedom, love, and human nature.

Among his most recognized works are The Art of Loving (1956), The Fear of Freedom (1941), and To Have or to Be (1976), where he reflects on consumerism and alienation. His legacy remains relevant in debates about ethics, individualism, and psychological well-being.
