boginja_opste_prakse's review against another edition
glupo mi je da ocjenjujem strucnu literaturu zvjezdicama jer nemam doktorat iz psihologije ahhahah ali moj utisak je da se ljudima mnogo svidjaju njegove knjige jer izmedju ostalog hrani narcizam kod citalaca tako sto im se indirektno obraca sa savjetima kako da pomognu sebi, sto je naravno mnogo jednostavnije citati nego neku studiju sa milion psihoticnih i neuroticnih slucajeva pa onda sam treba sebe da pronalazis. kako me zanimaju frojd i jung, ponekad zaboravim da postoji cijeli vijek psihologije poslije njih i svakako su znacajne fromove opaske i komentari na teorije i frojda i junga. from me uvijek tjera da ga brzo citam jer je pitak a sadrzajan, uvijek mi probudi zelju za saznanjem, ali bi bilo zahvalnije da se cita sporije jer mi je za dosta njegovih stavova bilo sasvim jasno da se poistovjecujem i da mi nesto govore, a nisam mogla da shvatim zasto se poistovjecujem

Saya baca terjemahan Bahasa Indonesianya. Kebetulan anak psikologi juga, penasaran karena tergaet judul terjemahannya "Seni Mendengarkan". Buku ini mungkin lebih mudah dicerna kalau kamu punya satu-dua pengetahuan dasar tentang psikologi klinis dan aliran-alirannya serta tokoh-tokohnya. Kalau kamu awam, kemungkinan harus meluangkan waktu lebih banyak untuk menelaah lebih lanjut beberapa istilah dan tokoh yang disebutkan di dalamnya karena penulis beberapa kali tidak menerangkannya lebih lanjut.
Saat pertama kali membaca, saya cukup kaget karena untuk setengah buku beliau memaparkan teori yang cukup banyak—mainly tentang psikoanalisis milik Freud dan apa yang beliau tentang maupun setujui dari teorinya. Saya menemukan bahwa gagasannya masuk akal, mudah dipahami, 'relatable' untuk saya yang berusia 20-an dan (yang saya cukup kaget) adalah anti 'sugar coating'. Erich Fromm berhasil menyiratkan teorinya yang membumi dan menampar saya berkali-kali dengan baik. Buku ini berhasil beresonansi dengan saya.
Dari hal ini bisa kita sama sama simpulkan bahwa buku ini memberikan saya fasilitas untuk mengenal Erich Fromm dan penghayatannya mengenai psikoanalisis lebih dalam. Buku ini memang tidak cocok untuk semua orang, tetapi akan sangat bagus jika kamu ingin memperdalam pengetahuan akan teori psikologi klinis dan memperluas pandangan mengenai konseling dan menjadi seorang terapis.

I enjoyed this, but fair warning: This is an absurd entry point into the work of Fromm, and the title of the book is slightly misleading. The Art of Listening is not a cohesive, intentional book about its titular topic (in the vein of Fromm's "The Art of Loving"). It's really just a collection of loosely related lectures on psychotherapy and Freud that was put together after Fromm's death to serve as the "Erich Fromm Guide to Psychotherapy" the author never lived long enough to actually write himself.
Also big yikes alert: These lectures are the work of an elderly German man delivering lectures during the 60s and 70s. And so some of this shit is way outdated. I shuddered as Fromm casually and repeatedly pathologizes homosexuality (he sees it in a non-hateful light, like being gay is an anxiety disorder or a result of trauma or something, but it still almost ruined the entire book for me and made me doubt everything else he said from there on out).
That being said, he inadvertently critiques the limitation of his views on homosexuality when he talks about how the needs and values of modern society arbitrarily determine what's sick, and how being well adapted to a sick society doesn't make you "healthy", it just makes you "valuable". He even talks about how a sick society can warp and traumatize marginalized people, making them more prone to mental illness. It's crazy that he declares all of this, and then in his next breath he is bragging about the time he "cured" a lesbian.
I'm not sure how practical or useful this book would be to a clinician, but there is some solid advice on the necessary conditions for successful outcomes in therapy. Also, if you're fascinated by the more existential, philosophical, and dare I say pseudointellectual BS, side of psychology, then you'll love this.
