[[Jewish]] [[identity]], a [[subjective ]] [[culture]] and [[experience]], are part and parcel of the [[history]] of [[psychoanalysis]].
[[Sigmund Freud ]] was [[born ]] on May 6, 1856, in Freiberg. His [[father ]] gave him the Jewish [[name ]] Schlomo and the [[Christian ]] name Sigmund.Freud was partly reared by a [[catholic ]] nanny, Monica Zadjic. Jakob taught him to read the [[family ]] Bible, which he continued to read in Jewish primary [[school ]] and later in the gymnasium. Unlike the family of his wife, Martha, Freud's family neglected [[religious ]] practices but respected traditions, particularly the principal holidays of Jewish [[life]].
Freud was circumcised on May 13, 1866.
Freud was confronted with the question of his Jewish identity—an [[affective ]] [[dimension ]] of Freud better reflected in his correspondence than in his [[scientific ]] works.
"[H]ow comes it that none of the godly ever devised psychoanalysis and that one had to wait for a godless Jew?" Freud wrote to Oskar Pfister on October 9, 1918 (quoted in Grollman, 1965, p. 115).
In this question he attributed his discovery, the only one capable of promoting a "new [[science]]," to a Jew whose [[lack ]] of [[faith ]] contested religion and its taboos.
In <i>[[Moses and Monotheism]]</i>, [[Freud]] questioned the "enigmas" surrounding [[Moses]]' [[place ]] and [[role ]] in history and the survival of the Jewish [[people]], the special target of centuries-old [[anti-Semitic]] [[hatred]].
