The Jewish Approach to Sexual Maturity

Feb 7, 1956


Psychiatrist and professor Dr. Abraham Franzblau speaks about his book, The Road to Sexual Maturity (1954). Dr. Franzblau explains his interests in psychoanalysis and Judaism and describes his intention to “bring together the best that Judaism, religion in general, and psychoanalysis have to offer.” He summarizes his perspective on sexual maturity by answering the three questions he raised in his original book. Over the course of the lecture, Dr. Franzblau comments on relationships, religion, marriage, and parenting. The lecture is followed with questions from the audience.

The Preservation of and Increased Access to the 92nd Street Y Humanities Audio Archives is generously funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities: Democracy demands wisdom.
