RÓHEIM, GÉZA

RÓHEIM, GÉZA . Géza Róheim (18911953) was born in Budapest and died in New York City. He immigrated to the United States from Hungary in 1938. Of Jewish descent, he was the only child of prosperous bourgeois parents. At an early age he developed an abiding interest in folklore, and he later chose to study ethnology in Leipzig and Berlin. It was during his time in Germany that he discovered the works of Sigmund Freud and his followers, which he embraced with great enthusiasm. Róheim is mainly remembered as a pioneer of psychoanalytic anthropology.

In 1915 and 1916 Róheim was analyzed by his compatriot and a member of Freud's inner circle, Sándor Ferenczi. With his wife Ilonka Róheim, he undertook fieldwork in various locations around the world between 1928 and 1931, including Somaliland, Normanby Island (now part of Papua New Guinea), and Arizona. However, Róheim's most significant ethnographic work was done with Arrernte, Luritja, and Pitjantjatjara Aborigines in central Australia, where he stayed for nine months in 1929. Róheim was the first properly psychoanalytically trained ethnographer and the first anthropologist to apply rigorous Freudian methods in his research and writing. He was a prolific writer, with his many books and papers having their primary focus on religion, magic, and folklore.

In 1925 Róheim published Australian Totemism, a large volume that scoured the ethnographic literature on Australian Aborigines for evidence to support and extend Freud's primal horde theory of the origins of religion and morality, put forward in Totem and Taboo (1913). Like Freud, Róheim understood Australian Aborigines to be "stone age savages" and thus a suitable testing ground for an evolutionist explanation of totemism as the primal religious form. Hence Australian Totemism followed Freud's lead in being a form of psychohistory, taking the vast array of Aboriginal myths, rituals, and related phenomena to be so many complex symbolic transformations that, through analysis, could be used to reconstruct the prehistoric transition from nature to culture. It fundamentally confirmed Freud's idea that totemism, as the primal religion, took a properly human form through the projection of "the father" into totemic species but also suggested that it had a prior, protohuman form that re-lied on the projection of maternal symbolism into the environment.

Róheim's appreciation of "primitive" life and religion altered somewhat as a result of his fieldwork experiences. Between 1932 and the end of his life he produced a number of works that were ethnographically rich and theoretically innovative. In particular he began to pay less attention to Freud's primal horde story and more openly interrogated its assumption that phylogenetic memory underlay the symbolic resolution of the Oedipus complex. While he never gave up his interest in psychohistory, Róheim devoted much of his attention to functionalist explanations, formulating what he called "the ontogenetic interpretation of culture." He argued that human societies differed culturally to the extent that they had evolved different "type traumata" giving rise to peculiarly distinctive adult character types (later known as "modal personalities"), together with systemically reproduced forms of defense mechanism and sublimation.

Whereas this theory was an account of culture in general, a specific interpretation of religion lay within its ambit. The totemic gods of Aboriginal Australia, for example, were said to have their origins in the demonic projections that arise in children as a result of anxieties prompted by the primal scene, demons being "bad" parents projected into the environment in the name of ego integrity. But these very demons are the basis of totemic religion, in the sense that they are transformed into authentic gods (totemic heroes) in the passage into adult life. Initiation into the male cult reverses the earlier trends of ego protection and fosters development of the superego. Concomitantly the demons that once gave rise to anxiety are transmuted, introjected, and dutifully revered as ancestral protectors of the law. Róheim believed that the religious emblems of this law (sacred objects representing the ancestors) took symbolic forms organically related to the demonic projections of childhood.

Róheim never wavered in his allegiance to Freud and rarely explicitly challenged any of the fundamentals of the primal horde theory of religious origins. Even as he rejected the Freudian idea of a "group mind," his originality lay more in the manner in which he extended the insights of Totem and Taboo and brought new emphases to bear on its scope. Like Freud, Róheim believed that religion had its origins in ancestor worship and that the psychoanalytic problem of "the father" was central to the symbolic creation of deities. Also like Freud, he understood the deification of ancestors to be symptomatic of the very process of cultural transmission itself. But unlike Freud, Róheim maintained an abiding interest in pre-oedipal development and hence with the problem of "the mother." His genius lay in giving due attention to feminine principles in the origin and function of religion and wedding this broader psychoanalytic program to an up-to-date anthropological methodology based on fieldwork and cultural relativism. Freud never directly encountered "primitive religion," but Róheim witnessed it in the flesh. This may be one reason why Róheim was not, like his master, quick to patronize "the primitive" or dismiss religion per se as a neurotic illusion.

SUPPLEMENTARY BIBLIOGRAPHY

Géza Róheim, anthropologist and psychoanalyst, was born in Budapest in 1891 and died in New York in 1953. Róheim came from a family of wealthy merchants. Even in his preschool years he showed a more than ordinary interest in myths and fairy tales, and while still a high school student he became an expert in Hungarian folklore. At the age of 18 he wrote an essay, “Dragons and Dragon Killers” (1911), that presaged some of his later psychological and cultural theories. Róheim’s interest in mythology and folklore continued throughout his life: when he was only five he read Alicein Wonderland and the Arabian Nights, and in his last major work, The Gates of the Dream (1952), he discussed what he considered to be one of the basic themes of Alice, her fall into the rabbit hole.

Róheim attended the University of Budapest, until his interest in ethnographic research led him to the University of Leipzig to study under Karl Weule and to the University of Berlin to study under Felix von Luschan. While in Germany, he became acquainted with Freud’s writings, including the psychoanalytic interpretation of culture first proposed in Totem and Taboo.

After having received his Ph.d., Róheim returned to Budapest, where he became a staff member of the Hungarian National Museum. It was at this time that he underwent his first psychoanalysis, with Sandor Ferenczi. The dual nature of Róheim’s training made it possible for him to do pioneering work as the first psychoanalytic anthropologist. His work in the early 1920s clearly reveals his unusual conceptual equipment. In 1921 he delivered a paper on Australian totemism (published in an extended version in 1925), for which he received the Freud prize in applied psychoanalysis. In the same year, he published a paper on “Das Selbst” (“The Self”) that anticipated psychoanalytic ego psychology by almost two decades. Again, Róheim’s treatise “Nach dem Tode des Urvaters” (1923) reveals his application of anthropological research to Freudian concepts. Although he accepted Freud’s postulation of the primal horde and the Cyclopean family, Róheim insisted that the “eating of the overlord” represented nothing more than the reversion to a fantasy pertaining to the oral stage of human development. This theory foreshadowed his shift from Freud’s phylogenetic explanation of culture (in terms of the sense of guilt and the experience of sin and atonement, arising from Oedipal conflicts during the phallic stage) to an ontogenetic one.

With the encouragement of Freud himself, and assisted by Princess Marie Bonaparte, another of Freud’s disciples, Róheim sought to find anthropological evidence to validate Freud’s theories and set out in 1928 on the first field expedition undertaken by a psychoanalytically trained anthropologist. His research was particularly focused on the western tribes of central Australia (Aranda, Pit-chentara, Pindupi, Yumu, Nambutji). His stay in central Australia was followed by a nine-month visit to Sipupu, Normanby Island, in the D’Entre-casteaux group. His aim was to study a matrilineal society closely resembling that of the Trobrianders, whom Malinowski had made the focus of his field observations. Róheim also visited briefly among the Yuma Indians on the borders of California, Arizona, and New Mexico. It was his research among the Australian aborigines, however, that provided the basis for his revised psychoanalytic theories.

Freud’s conception of the relationship between human culture (particularly totemism, religion, and social structure) and the vicissitudes of the primal family has found little confirmation in biological or anthropological evidence. Some evidence for the Cyclopean family, as conceived by Freud, may be adduced from the life of anthropoids, especially that of the baboon horde (Zuckerman 1932), but it must be remembered that this study was made of apes in captivity. Although the primal horde theory does seem to be useful in the interpretation of numerous myths and religious practices, serious doubt as to the validity of the hypothesis that memories may be inherited led Róheim to base his field work and his clinical observations on the theory that cultural patterns and institutions can be explained in large measure by the biologically conditioned crucial role of the specific infantile situation, such as separation anxiety, together with the largely environmentally conditioned prevailing libidinal trend.

Róheim thus proposed an ontogenetic theory of culture, with special emphasis on the role of biology and anatomy, that depended heavily on the findings of the Dutch anatomist Louis Bolk (1926). According to Bolk, comparative morphology reveals that the human individual shows many traits of neoteny, such as hairlessness, the form of the ear muscles, Mongoloid development, orthognathy, the central position of the foramen magnum, relative brain weight, certain variations of the jaw, persistent cranial sutures, and the tendency toward brachycephaUzation. However, among the higher anthropoids, the eruption of the milk teeth starts almost immediately after birth, and shortly after the growth of the second milk molar the first permanent one appears. This rather rapid change demands an equally rapid development of the jaw as well as of the entire skull. In man, on the other hand, there are two intervals that impose retardation. The milk teeth are fully grown only toward the end of the second year, so that the human child depends on sucking rather than on biting for a much longer period. After the second year there is an interval of about four years before the first permanent molars come through.

The psychological consequences of neoteny, according to Róheim and additional explorations by Muensterberger, stem chiefly from man’s prolonged dependence on maternal care. The so-called ego functions reflect the long period of human infancy; indeed, the various psychological processes do not reach maturity until the second decade of life. The human child, more than any other mammal, is in constant need of protection and nourishment provided by an external agency. The bond created by physiological necessity develops into a necessary emotional and social tie, forcing the human being to attain and maintain continuous relationships with other people. Like several other psychoanalysts, Róheim considered this dual bond to be a peculiarly human predicament. Moreover, this protracted symbiotic relationship forms the nucleus of wider social cohesion and organization. In its negative aspect of dependence and jealousy, it is the source of feelings of anxiety and helplessness and of fears of castration and separation.

This uniquely human dual bond leads to the differentiation of ego and nonego, of a self and an external world. It produces man’s predominant aim, which is to gain contentment and happiness and to avoid discontent and disillusionment. Attachment to the mother is the first source of pleasure, and disillusionment and anxiety are created by her absence. Thus, from a psychobiological point of view, the human organism can discharge tension only through another organism; the infant is anaclitic. The dual bond also leads to the differentiation of ego and id, which are essentially one in lower animals. “Instincts” (built-in behavior patterns) are replaced by learned behavior patterns.

Róheim’s dream theory is constructed on the analogy of the infantile experience of initial acceptance of the outside world as only an intermediary aim on the path of withdrawal from that world. His emphasis on the significance of particular fantasies experienced during the process of falling asleep is related to his ontogenetic approach. He related the sense of falling that is characteristic of the hypnagogic state to the inherent desire to return to the dual-unity situation that denies the separation of the child from the mother. He suggested that in sleep we return to the intrauterine situation and that dreams are attempts to re-establish contact with reality. In other words, dreams are efforts to reverse the regressive condition caused by sleep and therefore constitute a defense against the reinfantilization represented by sleep.

The ontogenetic theory of culture explains man’s pattern of separation (anxiety, ambivalence, aggression) and subsequent reunion as a repetition of the fundamental duality of the mother-child relationship. The reaction to absence or frustration is aggression and/or anxiety. The pattern also appears in numerous primitive ceremonies and religious rituals, including the killing and oral introjection of the totem animal, behavior which, according to Róheim, represents aggression as a reaction to separation anxiety, followed by reunion or the covenant (1945). Similarly, the Oedipus complex is not the result of inherited memory images; it is the inevitable outcome of the human family and its extended period of infancy. Totemism, in this view, is merely one of the most frequently used of the several available solutions to the Oedipal nature of man.

Using his own field observations as examples, Róheim was able to show the development of specific cultural patterns or group ideals. Among the aborigines of central Australia, the typical infantile trauma is the alknarintja situation: the mother lies on top of the boy infant, ostensibly to protect the child. Evidence from myths, dreams, and rituals suggests that the child experiences this “protection” as a threat to himself when he is in a helpless, passive, inverted position. The institution of phallic ceremonialism, based on the exclusion of women and the projection of the threatening mother image onto the dangerous phallic female demons, is an attempt to ward off the early traumatization of the boy infant. Thus, this simple example from Pitchentara society shows how the crucial elements in the infantile situation lead to reaction formations, which then become institutionalized. The smaller and more self-sufficient a society, the greater the likelihood that specific cultural patterns in the relationship between mother and child will produce a prevalent personality type in the society, that is, a greater psychological similarity among the members of that society.

As Róheim put it: “Man has invented culture because of his delayed infancy or intolerance of tension. In our own attempt to master reality we create a society, i.e., a well-functioning symbiotic mode of existence. Instead of parricide and incest, we have the super-ego and group formation, instead of ’clutchings’ to archaic objects we have ’seekings’ of new substitute objects. Adaptation then becomes a favorable solution between narcissism and object-cathexis” (1943, pp. 77–80). Hence, in Róheim’s view, culture is a defense system against the fear of object loss and the separation anxiety that sacrifices immediate gratification and the monopolization of maternal love for a modicum of security and partial gratification.

RÓHEIM, GÉZA (1891-1953)

Anthropologist and psychoanalyst Géza Róheim was born in Budapest on September 12, 1891, and died in New York on June 7, 1953.

Born to a prosperous family of Jewish merchants, as a child Géza had a passion for folk tales and while a high school student he delivered a paper before the Hungarian Ethnological Society. At the University of Budapest he studied geography, linguistics, philosophy, law, and literature; then, in Berlin and Leipzig, anthropology and the history of religion. Because anthropology was not yet a fully developed discipline, when he received his doctorate in 1914 his examination was in geography. As an assistant librarian in 1917 in the Széchenyi Library of the Hungarian National Museum, Róheim essentially specialized in folklore. In 1918 he married Ilona, who would become his partner in anthropological research.

Róheim had become acquainted with psychoanalysis while a student, and his first article "Dragons and Dragon Killers," published in 1911, brought a psychoanalytic perspective to the explanation of myths. In 1916 he began analysis, first with Sándor Ferenczi and later with Vilma Kovács. In Spiegelzauber (Mirror Magic), first published in 1919, Róheim made extensive use of Freud's recently developed theory of narcissism.

During Béla Kun's short-lived communist revolution in 1918, Róheim helped reorganize the Hungarian National Museum, where he held the first chair of anthropology at the University of Budapest. But when the regime failed after just three months, Róheim lost his academic position. Henceforth he made a living through analytic practice and by giving occasional courses in English.

In 1921, Róheim received the Freud Prize for his study "Das Selbst" ("The Self") and for his paper on Australian totemism delivered at The Hague Congress in 1920. In 1927, when Bronislaw Malinowski famously contested the existence of the Oedipus complex in matrilineal societies, Róheim had the task of gathering material to refute the ethnologist's arguments. Several expeditions, beginning in 1928 and sponsored by Marie Bonaparte, enabled Róheim to do field work in Central Australia, New Guinea, Normanby Island, and in Arizona among the Yuma.

From this work in the field Róheim developed his major themes. In 1932 he published "Psychoanalysis of Primitive Cultural Types" and arguably his central work, The Riddle of the Sphinx, appeared in 1934. He emphasized the significance of the primal scene and, relying on work in comparative anatomy by German physiologist Ludwig Bolk, attempted to demonstrate the role of fetal characteristics in human mental life, which he believed had important and to some extent pathogenic consequences.

In the autumn of 1938, after the rise of fascism and with war fast approaching, Róheim emigrated to the United States. He first settled in Worcester, Massachusetts, where he practiced as a psychoanalyst at the State Hospital for the Insane; he subsequently settled in New York. As a non-medical analyst, Róheim was not accepted into the New York Psychoanalytic Society, nor could he find an academic appointment. His work, based on a systematic human psychology, found little support among the functionalist ethnologists then predominant in the universities, while he himself remained critical of cultural anthropology. Ever creative and intrepid, Róheim organized a seminar in his home that brought together, among others, anthropologists Weston La Barre, Werner Münsterberger, and Georges Devereux. In 1947, he undertook a new expedition among the Navajo.

Róheim left a considerable body of work that includes some one hundred fifty studies and a dozen books on a host of topics in anthropology, sociology, history, mythology, folklore, and psychoanalysis. To him is owed a method of applied psychoanalysis buttressed by field investigation. He developed an ontogenetic theory of culture and, citing Ferenczi, he contended that a foundational trauma lies at the root of each culture. Also, influenced by Melanie Klein, Róheim offered an account of basic human activities, emphasizing the significance of fantasies of destruction and reparation. Marked by a deep cultural pessimism, Róheim always pointed to the cultural superiority of "primitive" people while viewing Western societies as dominated by anal retentiveness and reaction formations.

RÓHEIM, GÉZA

RÓHEIM, GÉZA (1891–1953), U.S. psychoanalyst and anthropologist. Born in Budapest, he was for a time affiliated with the ethnological department of the Hungarian National Museum. In Berlin, he worked under F. von *Luschan and studied the theories of *Freud. In 1915, he underwent his first psychoanalysis at the hands of Sándor *Ferenczi and became the first ethnologist employing and advocating a psychoanalytic interpretation of culture, and during the next three years wrote a series of papers on his theories. About this time, he was appointed professor of anthropology at the University of Budapest. His treatise, Nach dem Tode des Urvaters (Imago (1923), 83–121), adjusted the Freudian theory in the light of anthropological data. In 1925 and 1926, he wrote two books on the psychoanalytic study of Australian totemism.

With Freud's encouragement and assistance, from 1928 to 1931 Róheim did fieldwork in Central Australia, Normanby (Melanesia), on the Sipupu Island in Somaliland, and among the Yuma Indians in Arizona. On the basis of this research Róheim was enabled to produce a revision of psychoanalytic theory. Some of the products of this study appear in Animism, Magic, and the Divine King (1930) as well as various articles in the psychoanalytic journals of the early 1930s. His two books, Riddle of the Sphinx (1934) and The Origin and Function of Culture (1943), deal with folklore and the interpretation of myths. Between 1932 and 1938, he taught anthropology and psychoanalysis at the Budapest Institute of Psychoanalysis.

In 1938 he left for the United States and became affiliated with the Worcester State Hospital as an analyst. After 1940 he joined the New York Psychoanalytical Institute as a lecturer and engaged in private practice as a psychoanalyst.

In his studies of mythology and magic, he placed primary stress on sexuality but with some deviations from the Freudian doctrine. On the basis of both his fieldwork and his clinical experience, Róheim tended to reject Freud's theory of the primal family and the hypothesis of inherited racial memories as an explanation of totemism and other social data in religion and social structure. He moved toward an ontogenetic theory of culture explaining it on the basis of prolonged dependence of the human infant and child on the mother which results in emotional and social ties.

Róheim also developed a dream theory interpreting various phenomena of anxiety, ambivalence, and aggression as part of the human experience of mother separation. In 1949 he wrote "Technique of Dream Analysis and Field Work in Anthropology" and in 1950 Psychoanalysis and Anthropology. In Magic and Schizophrenia (1955), Roheim set out his belief that both individuals and societies evolve from a stage of magical symbolic thinking that he related to schizophrenia.
