Narodziny Syna Marnotrawnego
The Birth of the Prodigal Son

Summary/Abstract: The author proposes a reinterpretation of the parable about the Prodigal Son within the context of the narration introduced in Rainer Maria Rilke’s The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge and therapeutic sketches by Mariusz Tchorek. In doing so, she tries to prove a connection between Tchorek’s underlines in The Notebooks and his later psychological practice. By analysing the story of the Prodigal Son proposed by Rilke Anna Świtaj shows the similarity of this process to the path postulated by Mariusz Tchorek, which the patient should traverse in the course of therapy.
