Erik H. Erikson 爱利克·埃里克森

 

"Human personality in principle develops according to steps predetermined in the growing person's readiness tobe driven toward, to be aware of and to interact with a widening social radius."

     --- Erik Erikson

 

Erik Erikson was born in Frankfurt, Germany on June 15, 1902.

Erik Erikson die in Harwich, Massachusetts, 1994.

Erikson's biological father, who was Danish, had left before Erikson was born. He was adopted by his Jewish stepfather, and took the name Erik Homberger. But because of his blond-and-blue-eyed Nordic look, Erikson was rejected by his Jewish neighbors. At grammar school, on the other hand, he was teased for being Jewish. Feeling not fitting in with either culture, Erikson's identity crises began at an early age. Around 1920, instead of going to college (for disliking the formal education  structure), Erikson traveled around Europe, keeping a diary of his experiences.  Came to the U.S. in 1933 and became Boston's first child analyst.

 

He was an artist and a teacher in the late 1920's when he met Anna Freud, and began to study child psychoanalyses from her and at the Vienna Psychoanalytic Institute. He immigrated to the United States in 1933. He obtained a position at the Harvard Medical School, and later on, held positions at institutions including Yale, Berkeley, the Menninger Foundation, the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciencesat Palo Alto, and the Mount Zion Hospital in San Francisco.

 

His special interest in the influence of society and culture on child development had led him to study groups of AmErikan Indian children. He was also concerned with the effects the rapid social changes in AmErika on generation gap, racial tensions, juvenile delinquency, changing sexual roles, and the dangers of nuclear war. He is credited for widening the scope of psychoanalytic theory to take greater account of social, cultural, and other environmental factors.
