ABSTRACT

A Leonard Cohen song, “Anthem,” declares that “there is a crack, a crack, in everything. . . .”3 Wolfgang Giegerich agrees: “A psychology that does not know about the rupture in the soul, that is not responsive to it in the very constitution of the categories of its thinking and thereby does not allow the brokenness to find adequate expression in it, is a psychology which cannot do justice to the soul’s wound.”4
