Abstract

In this paper, I will attempt a cross-fertilization between some ideas of the Danish professor of ethics and philosophy of religion, K.E. Løgstrup and some of the therapeutic ideas of Sandor Ferenczi. I will especially discuss the phenomenon of trust, and the response it awakens in the person to whom the trust is directed, especially as evident in the thearapeutic relationship.

Keywords:

trust, trauma, ethical demand, integrity, Kairos
