Continuing on Fromm&#39;s The Art of Loving (1956).

In this second half of our discussion, we talk about love as requiring knowledge: as &quot;knowing the secret&quot; of humanity or at least being interested. This is related to sadism.

A Valentine&#39;s Day special topic! What is love, really? This psychoanalyst of the Frankfurt school thinks that real love is not something one &quot;&quot;falls&quot;&quot; into, but is an art, an activity, and doing it well requires a disciplined openness and psychological health. Love is the answer to the deep human need to rid ourselves of isolation, but a mere sexual union won&#39;t provide real intimacy. To connect...

Yet more on The Confessions, now on books 10–13.

The second installment of three for our discussion of Friedrich Nietzsche&#39;s The Birth of Tragedy (1872).
