El Arte de Amar

The Art of Loving is a work with which Erich Fromm has helped several generations reflect on love and answer some seemingly simple questions: What does it mean to love? How do we detach from ourselves to experience this feeling? Love is not just a personal relationship, it is a trait of maturity that manifests itself in various forms: erotic love, fraternal love, filial love, self-love... Love is not something fleeting and mechanical, as today's society sometimes leads us to believe. On the contrary, love is an art, the fruit of learning. Therefore, if we want to learn to love, we must act as we would if we wanted to learn any other art, be it music, painting, carpentry, or the art of medicine. Or, at least, not dedicate our energy to seeking success and money, prestige and power, but to cultivating the true art of loving.
