Moses and Monotheism

"Moses and Monotheism" is Sigmund Freud's final major work, offering a psychoanalytic interpretation of the origins of monotheism.

Freud speculates on the role of Moses, an Egyptian, in the development of Jewish religious beliefs.

He explores the psychological dynamics of religious belief and the impact of collective trauma on the formation of religious practices.

The book is considered a significant contribution to psychoanalytic anthropology, although its speculative nature has been subject to criticism.

It represents Freud's ongoing interest in the interplay between individual psychology and cultural development.
