Who was the philosopher Erich Fromm? | The Erich Fromm Channel

[@theaperelaxspotlight8267]

Today I read his To Have or to Be? After reading the book in Mongolian, I checked KZbin. I enjoy reading great books

[@theerichfrommchannel6722]

To Have or to Be is an outstanding example of philosophical writing.

[@bastugollum4473]

Just finished The same books Finnish translation. Now to practice The thesis of new human in action.

[@Steve-ul8qb]

Good to see you back! Look forward to more content

[@theerichfrommchannel6722]

Thank you Steve! Currently working on a video essay about 'The Art of Loving'.

[@jeroenbakker52]

I found him decent, humanistic, reasonable and readily understandable unlike some philosophers who like to show off their opinions in an orgy of virtuoso language

[@theerichfrommchannel6722]

Couldn't agree more.

[@alowl450]

Not sure Erich would enjoy the soundtrack selection but good little bio.

[@theerichfrommchannel6722]

Glad you liked it. Was he not a fan of Tchaikovsky?

[@leonstenutz6003]

This video is a jewel on a jewel of a human being. Thank you.

[@theerichfrommchannel6722]

Thank you so much for your kind comment.

The big problem with Fromm's body of work is, in my opinion, how to apply that knowledge to major political problems that thwart true democracy and not simply to the confines of theoretical knowledge, that is, to make his knowledge "live" in society.

[@Alun49]

I've read quite a lot of Fromm's work, and find him as pertinent now ever.

Couldn't agree more.

Thank you so much 😊🙏

[@theerichfrommchannel6722]

Always welcome.

I read "You Shall Be As Gods" when I was in college. Should read more of his books. 📚

[@theerichfrommchannel6722]

'You Shall Be As Gods' is absolutely fascinating!

[@HappyLittleBoozer]

After listening to this I'm actually glad he's not more commonly known.

[@theerichfrommchannel6722]

Why is that?
