Erich Fromm: The Art of Loving

One of the new essays included in the 16-week “University Class” of Nonviolence is The Art of Loving, by Erich Fromm. Fromm (1900 –1980) was a social psychologist, psychoanalyst, humanistic philosopher and peace activist, associated with the Frankfurt School of critical theory. These three videos were recorded with Mike Wallace in 1958, shortly after publication of his bestseller, also called “The Art of Loving.” The second segment most directly speaks to the subject of the essay.
