Kierkegaard's Influence on the Social Sciences, ed. by Jon Stewart, Aldershot, Hampshire
Irvin Yalom: The “Throw-Ins” of Psychotherapy2011 •
Although Yalom counts Kierkegaard as one of the forefathers of existential psychotherapy, no deeper exploration of his Kierkegaardian connection can be found, either in Yalom's own writings or in writings about Yalom. This article is therefore a first attempt to trace back to Kierkegaard those thoughts which can be found in Yalom's writings, concentrating primarily on direct references. We will find, however, that Yalom's Kierkegaard is mostly seen through the lenses of his intellectual teachers such as Rollo May (1909-94), Paul Tillich (1886-1965), and Ernest Becker (1924-74). My article therefore can be read as an initial tracing ofthe influence of these authors on Yalom's thought. After giving a brief introduction to Yalom's life and work I will focus mainly on his Existential Psychotherapy, which holds nearly all Kierkegaard references in the Yalom corpus. Using this text as our focus will also provide a better understanding of Yalom's existential psychotherapy approach.

IRVIN YALOM – LITERATURE, PHILOSOPHY, PSYCHOTHERAPY2019 •
Irvin Yalom is a most notable psychiatrist and existential psychotherapist whose prolific career of seven decades expands into the field of literature as well. Three of his novels, namely When Nietzsche Wept, The Schopenhauer Cure and The Spinoza Problem, all beautifully intertwine biographical and fictional elements of the lives and theories of the three philosophers with the history and practice of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy. Each novel sees an analyst-analysand relationship through which Yalom attempts to delve into the minds of some of history's greatest thinkers: the first, When Nietzsche Wept (1992) follows a fictional therapeutic encounter between the fathers of psychoanalysis (Joseph Breuer) and nihilism (Friedrich Nietzsche). The second, The Schopenhauer Cure (2005) involves psychotherapy in a group setting of a terminally ill therapist and a Schopenhauer-obsessed patient, whereas the third, The Spinoza Problem (2012) follows, again, sessions between a therapist and a young Alfred Rosenberg (one of the Nazi ideologues), while suggesting that Spinoza's self-examination prefigures the 'talking cure' of psychoanalysis. Thus, his novels provide a prime example of interdisciplinarity and, although they can be regarded as psycho-philosophical novels, Yalom chooses the term 'teaching novels'.

Rage and Glory at the End of the World: The Israeli Mythology through the Films of Avi Nesher2022 •
This course will engage the various ways through which the filmic medium has portrayed Israel's complex matrix of cultural identities. Oscillating between considerations of social history and film aesthetics, the different sessions will address the major factors shaping Israeli culture: war and the demands of battlefield heroism; the trauma of the Holocaust; the Mizrahi-Ashkenazi ethnic divide; the contemporary immigration experience; engagements with the Palestinian Other; gender politics; queer identity and the threat of "pinkwashing"; kibbutz life and the decline of collectivism; and the challenge of Judaism to Israeli secularity. Through our discussions, class participants will gain a more comprehensive perspective on Israeli society than is usually offered in mainstream US media, as well as acquire intimate familiarity with certain milestones of Israeli filmmaking, most of which have rarely been screened outside of Israel's national borders.
