Titkaink

by Paul Tournier, Zsuzsa Mirnics (Translator)

Miért olyan jelentőségteljes az a pillanat, amikor a kisgyermek ráébred: neki is lehet titka? Mihez kezdjen a szülő, ha rájön, hogy a gyermeke elhallgat előle valamit? Van-e helye a titoknak a házasságban? Létezhet-e bizalmas kapcsolat orvos és betege között? Mi értelme feltárulkozni az előtt az Isten előtt, aki minden titkunkat ismeri?

Paul Tournier, a neves svájci pszichiáter Titkaink című kötetében különös éleslátással, gyakorlati példákon keresztül válaszolja meg a sokakat foglalkoztató kérdéseket, miközben végigvezeti az olvasót az érett személyiséggé válás szakaszain.

أنا قرأت الترجمة العربية للكتاب ده وهو مفيد جدا جدا لتوعية الأباء والأمهات لأهمية أن يكون للطفل والمراهق أسراره الخاصة به وقد إيه ده بيساعد في بناء أو هدم شخصيتهم وإستقلاليتهم

[Jeff · Rating 5 out of 5]

This small book, adapted from a lecture given in 1963 addresses the function of secrets in the three levels of formation of the person. Very interesting.

[Rose Stubblefield · Rating 5 out of 5]

Starts with a simple and relatable story about a little girl and her mother and the significance of secrets in our relationships. He talks about parents who get irritated about their children keeping secrets and then says: "It is somewhat in the hope of opening their eyes that I am writing this book." People often wonder why they pray certain things to God even though He knows everything already. I really liked Tournier's answer to this on page 58 (don't want to spoil it...). He starts this short book small but ends big, with the knowledge of God. [The version I read was translated by Joe Embry and ends on p. 63.]

[Martha Highfield · Rating 5 out of 5]

A Swiss psychiatrists explains the role of secrets in developing individuation and then personhood by sharing those secrets with confidante's and finally with God. To me he seems the early version of Jordan Peterson.

This book is highly readable, a manageable <100 pages, and an adapted lecture. Written in the 1960s before the era of so much pharmaco-psychological management, I began to wonder if we have not lost much alongside that gain.
