Reseña del editor
Oppenheim's grandson, the philosopher Peter Singer, never knew his grandfather, for Oppenheim died as a victim of the Nazis before Singer was born. Fifty years after Oppenheim's death, Singer set out to get to know his grandfather. He found a wealth of written materials, including intimate personal letters, and was startled to read things he had never expected about his grandparents, and their families and friends. Nevertheless, what bound him to his grandfather was a passion for understanding ideas about universal values and human nature that did "push time away". Through the unique documents, Singer gives readers a rare glimpse into the controversial circles around Freud and Adler; at a time when Vienna had the most vibrant, and also most intensely Jewish, intellectual life in Europe.

Photographic / illustrated paperback binding with black and red coloured titles to the front panel and red coloured titles to the backstrip. Black and white photograph of author to the rear panel. Peter Singer ethicist and philosopher, discovered some of his grandfather's letters in a relative's apartment in Melbourne. Reading them, he made startling discoveries about his grandparents early romantic attachments, the basis on which they decide to marry, their professional aspirations and their differing views of Judaism. ". Starting from an essay that Oppenheimer co-wrote with Freud, the which was suppressed because of a bitter split within the Wednesday Group, Singer explores the difficulties of free enquiry in the circles of both Freud and Adler. As he set out to find out more about the life of a man he never knew, Singer was transported back to the Vienna of his grandfather, where was the hub of European culture and new ideas, a culture that was both intensely Jewish and distinctly secular. Examining this culture, and its fate, forces Singer to confront one of the foundations of his own thought: how much can we rely on human reason?" Â from the rear panel blurb.

Paperback. A personal history by the man described in The New Yorker as the most influential living philosopher. What binds us pushes time away.So wrote David Oppenheim, classical scholar, collaborator and then critic of Sigmund Freud, friend and supporter of Alfred Adler, participant in and observer of the intellectual and cultual highs and lows of early 20th-century Vienna. Oppenheim's grandson, the philosopher Peter Singer, never knew his grandfather, for Oppenheim died as a victim of the Nazis before Singer was born. Fifty years after Oppenheim's death, Singer set out to get to know his grandfather. He found a wealth of written materials, including intimate personal letters, and was startled to read things he had never expected about his grandparents, and their families and friends. Nevertheless, what bound him to his grandfather was a passion for understanding ideas about universal values and human nature that did 'push time away'. Through the unique documents, Singer gives readers a rare glimpse into the controversial circles around Freud and Adler at a time when Vienna had the most vibrant, and also most intensely Jewish, intellectual life in Europe.
