"Erich Fromm, the Marxist psychoanalyst and Buddhist writer..."
Madeleine Bunting in Saturday's Guardian.
Rather a sententious description. But at least it's a mention of a thinker of great importance.
He was not a doctrinaire Marxist, nor a doctrinaire psychoanalyst either, if he was either at all.
As for Buddhist, well that's news to me. He was interested in the idea of God.
He described himself as a humanistic socialist.
