Description

I love fatherhood - I love what it has shaped me into as a person. It has given me reserves of love and patience I didn't know were possible. Being a father fills me with anxiety, but at the same time, my endless gratitude calms me. This makes me wonder why fatherhood is so rewarding for some and so difficult for others. In his book "Fatherhood: A History of Love and Power," Augustine Sedgewick talks about the archetypes of fatherhood throughout human history. From Aristotle to Sigmund Freud, he examines how our understanding of fatherhood has evolved over time to today.
