Abstract
Abstract In her book In the Beginning Was Love, Julia Kristeva gives an account of her understanding of the psychoanalytic task and uses overtly theological language to do so. Noting Freud’s insistence that the foundation of his cure is “Our God Logos,,, she describes psychoanalysis as about making word and flesh meet-making the word become flesh in a discourse of love directed to an “impossible other.,, These comments are developed by means of a discussion of the Apostles’ Creed. Kristeva, writing as an analyst, not a theologian, notes that in the Genesis narratives God creates by separating. Separation is the mark of God’s presence: the separation of light and dark, heavens and earth, sea and dry land, male and female.
