Abstract

Akira Kurosawa's 1952 film about a man with a terminal gastric cancer introduces a discussion of hope and faith in the oncology patient. A psychodynamic relationship between hope and faith is explored, using Lawrence LeShan's research in cancer psychotherapy and Erik Erikson's lifespan developmental theory. LeShan describes a cancer personality characterized by hopeless despair, while Erikson formulates a psychogenetic framework for the development of hope and despair. Hope and faith are linked through the individual's earliest strivings toward basic trust in the world and his or her own self-efficacy. Accordingly, cancer psychotherapy may aim at restoring adult patients' faith in life and inner creative resources.

摘要

黑泽明 1952 年的电影讲述了一个患有晚期胃癌的男人，他在片中探讨了癌症患者的希望和信念。本文通过劳伦斯·莱尚（Lawrence LeShan）的癌症心理治疗研究和埃里克·埃里克森（Erik Erikson）的生命周期发展理论，探讨了希望和信念之间的心理动力学关系。莱尚描述了一种具有绝望和无助特征的癌症人格，而埃里克森则为希望和绝望的发展制定了一个心理发生框架。希望和信念通过个体对世界的基本信任和自我效能的最早努力联系在一起。因此，癌症心理治疗的目的可能是恢复成年患者对生活和内在创造资源的信心。
