Jean-Gérard Bursztein

French psychoanalyst and philosopher

In the history of thought, Jean-Gérard Bursztein is one of the names that keeps being returned to.

The record lists Jean-Gérard Bursztein as French psychoanalyst and philosopher.

Jean-Gérard Bursztein was born in 1945. His recorded nationality is France. He studied at Paris Nanterre University.

Twentieth-century philosophy was marked by war, exile and ideology; many of its central figures wrote in flight or under censorship.

The recorded fields of work are psychoanalysis, philosophy and philosophy of mathematics.

The discipline keeps its dead in print, because the arguments are still open.

That the work was done from France matters: philosophical traditions, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
