ABSTRACT
O autor examina criticamente as duas grandes tradições responsáveis pela formação da cultura ocidental: a da Bíblia que gerou as três religiões do Livro, judaísmo, cristianismo e islamismo, e a filosofia, inventada na Grécia antiga e desenvolvida até a nossa contemporaneidade, argumentando que nosso presente só pode ser realmente compreendido à luz deste nosso passado.
The author critically examines the two great traditions which mostly contributed to the making of Western culture: on one hand the Bible, which gave origin to Judaism, Christianity and Islamism - the three religions of the Book, on the other philosophy, invented in Ancient Greece and developed up to the present day. He argues that our contemporary world can only be properly understood in the light of this past.

The article analyses the trajectory of Dr. José Bleger (1922-1972), an Argentine psychoanalyst who tried to articulate his triple identity as a Jew, a Marxist, and a psychoanalyst. Bleger played a central role in the constitution of the 'psy movement' and, in more general terms, in the diffusion of a 'psy culture' in Argentina, a country that today is considered as one of the 'world capitals of psychoanalysis'. However, his trajectory showed not only the limits of his projects in the increasingly politically polarized Argentina of the 1960s, as well as their internal contradictions, but also the difficulties of articulating different identities in those agitated times. Through an analysis of Bleger's trajectory this article explores larger issues of Argentine political culture and their relations with the emergence of a psychoanalytic culture.

O livro faz um paralelo entre a cidade de São Paulo e fotos, histórias, depoimentos e informações sobre esta instituição sólida, antiga e atuante na coletividade judaica. São relatos e imagens que mostram como uma pequena entidade, fundada em 1915 para dar apoio aos imigrantes que se estabeleciam no Brasil, conseguiu crescer com tanta estrutura e eficiência.

Moses Maimonides (1135-1204) is considered the most prominent figure of Judaism during the Middle Ages. Born within the Sephardic Jewish community of Cordoba, his rich intellectual education (theological, philosophical and medical) together with a deep spirituality gave birth to the figure of a highly humanitarian, rational and dedicated physician. His medical legacy includes ten treatises, among them 'Medical Aphorisms of Moses', a set of 1,500 aphorisms organized in 25 chapters, each dealing with a different area of medicine. His theological works and the renowned 'Guide for the Perplexed' raised his figure as a theologist and modern philosopher, being the latest his most universal creation. His life and legacy are an invitation to raise the medical vocation and practice beyond a simple occupation.

Moisés Maimónides (1135-1204) es considerado unánimemente la figura más prominente del judaismo durante el período medieval. Nacido en el seno de la comunidad judía sefardí cordobesa, su riquísima formación intelectual (teológica, filosófica y médica) unida a una profunda espiritualidad dio origen a la figura de un médico altamente humanitario, racional y abnegadamente dedicado a su trabajo. Su legado médico consta de diez tratados, entre los cuales destaca la obra 'Aforismos Médicos de Moisés', un conjunto de 1.500 aforismos organizados en 25 capítulos, cada uno versando sobre un área diferente de la medicina. Sus obras de carácter teológico y la célebre 'Guía de Perplejos' alzaron su figura como teólogo y filósofo moderno, siendo esta última considerada la más universal de sus creaciones. Su vida y obra son una invitación a elevar la vocación y profesión médica más allá de un simple oficio.

A literatura de Kafka, produzida no alvorecer do século XX, é mais um processo em andamento na Europa fin-de-siècle. É a escrita de um jovem que busca, para além de seu trabalho burocrático, um sentido para estar ali. Sua produção literária é a tentativa de dar conta desse mundo que não permite uma apropriação, que ora o incorpora, ora o exclui, por sua condição judaica. Condição muitas vezes secundária para ele e os de sua geração, mas que não deixa de marcá-los significativamente. Marcas involuntárias, que não os abandonam e retornam conforme as produzem. Marcas que caracterizam e permitem a construção de uma obra e de uma vida. Aqui tenta-se ler os vestígios dessa tradição abandonada, mas que não se deixa apagar. Que retorna, que impulsiona a produção, não como uma Musa, mas sim como angústia e necessidade de produzir.
Kafka's literature is one of the many intellectual projects underway in the European fin-de-siècle. It is the work of a young man in search of a meaning for being there, despite his bureaucratic work at a government agency. His literature is an attempt to get a hold of a society that sometimes accepts him and sometimes rejects him, for his Jewish background. A background usually not considered by him and his fellows, but always present in many different ways. It is this background that gives way to his literary production and, thus, his own life. This paper is an attempt to read the Jewish background that is behind Kafka's work, a background always present, which works in favor of his production, not as a Muse, but as anguish and the necessity to write.

O artigo parte da distinção encontrada no trabalho freudiano Moisés e o Monoteísmo: Geschichte (o acontecer histórico), a Historie (a historiografia) e o historish (o adjetivo histórico). Apoiando-se nos fragmentos de narrações, de relatos ou de imagens que constituem o acontecimento histórico e suas versões historiográficas, a construção do historish na psicanálise é acompanhada. Mostra como o historisch preenche as lacunas entrevistas na Geschichte e na Historie ao abordarem os feitos de Moisés e o estabelecimento do judaísmo. Conclui por identificar nesse procedimento o compromisso ético de Freud de sustentar o ato teórico que funda a verdade histórica dessa religião.
The text uses a distinction found in Freudïs Moses and Monotheism between Geschichte (historical event), Historie (historiography) and historish (historical truth). Supported by fragments presented in narratives, reports and images that constitute the historical event and its historiographic versions, the construction of the historish in psychoanalysis is followed. The article demonstrates how the historish comes to fulfill gaps presented by Geschichte and Historie in what concerns the deeds of Moses and the setting up of Judaism. It concludes by identifying in this procedure Freudïs ethical commitmen to support a theoretical act which founds the historical truth of this religion.

In the beginning the author points out the importance of Maimonides work, as a precursor of measures and concepts ruling the present medicine. After an explanation about the origin of Talmud, it refers to the interpretation received at different times which are included in its precepts. Hygienic cares and observance of strict rules for civil life as for times of war, are mentioned by the author. The physician status is also an object of preferred attention in the Talmud, being considered from both a professional and a spiritual point of view.
