Bacon, Francis (1561-1626).

The Historie of Life and Death. With Observations Naturall and Experimentall for the Prolonging of Life. London: Printed by I. Okes, for Humphrey Mosley, 1638 [actually 1637]. [10]+323+[1]pp. 12mo. Early, possibly contemporary, drab boards, rebacked with marbled paper in the 19th century, and with several front and rear blank leaves added, which seem to have been used to keep several accounts, one of which appears to be of books bought and the amounts paid for them. Signed (on an added rear blank) by Ann Lackington. One of the books listed "Playfairs Acct Scotland" (19 shillings) almost certainly refers to James Playfair's A Geographical and Statistical Description of Scotland, published in 1819. Lacking A1 (the imprimatur leaf) and the engraved title-page. A fair amount of scoring in a kind of rust crayon and occasional ink scoring (possibly by Ann Lackington). A few minor marginal page tears, otherwise a good copy. Uncommon. Text printed within a single border. The first edition in English in an unauthorized translation. The second of Bacon's proposed six natural histories, which were intended to illustrate the new way of investigating nature that he had described in Novum Organum. Bacon's new way was inductive and empirical -- in short what we today call scientific method. Of these illustrative books, Bacon did finish two: Historia ventorum (1622) and Historia vitae et mortis (1623), while the third, the unfinished Historia densi et rari was published posthumously by his secretary William Rawley in 1658. Gibson 153; STC 1157. Item # 87926 Inquire | Order $985.00

A pirated translation (translator unknown) that appeared several months before Rawley's authorized translation. "The work is an elaborate collection of data on factors governing durability in things animate and inanimate, and mortality in living ones. Like the Historia ventorum, the proto-statistical Historia vitae had a powerful effect on the character of seventeenth-century 'natural-historical' Baconianism, as evidenced, for example, in the work of John Graunt and William Petty on the bills of mortality and the development of 'political arithmetick'. And again, like the Historia densi et rari, the Historia vitae exhibits great faith in the efficacy of quantitative data in natural philosophy, a faith with which Bacon has seldom been credited by many of his critics" [pages 41-42 of Graham Rees's article on Bacon in The Dictionary of Seventeenth-Century British Philosophers, ed. by Andrew Pyle, Volume 1].

Postl wasn an Austrian-American author of novels and travelogues, whose writings appeared under the pseudonym "Charles Sealsfield." Born in Moravia, he entered the Kreuzherrenorden in Prague, where he became a priest. In the Autumn of 1822 he fled to America, where he assumed the name of Charles Sealsfield. In 1826 he returned to Germany and published a book on America (Die Vereinigten Staaten von Nordamerika), which was followed by an outspoken criticism of Austria, written in English (Austria as It Is, 1828) and published anonymously in London. Meanwhile he had returned to America, where he published his first novel, also in English, Tokeah, or the White Rose (1828). He now turned journalist, first in New York City and subsequently in Paris and London, as correspondent for various journals. In 1832 he settled in Switzerland, and in 1860 purchased a small estate near Solothurn. Here he died in May 1864. His will first revealed the fact that he was the former monk, Postl. It is as a German novelist that he is best known. His Tokeah appeared in German under the title Der Legitime und die Republikaner (1838), and was followed by a number of successful novels. Sealsfield occupies an important position in the development of the German-language historical novel at a time when Walter Scott's influence was waning. He widened the scope of historical fiction to include great national and political movements. [Taken from the Wikipedia article on Sealsfield April 20, 2006, most of which in turn was taken from the 11th Britannica.]

A key book in the history of psychiatry "which not only introduced into psychiatry a new standard and a new methodology, but also a number of terms which came to stay" [Hunter & Macalpine p. 952]. The terms 'psychosis', 'psychopathology' and 'psychiatric practitioner' [ie, 'psychiatrist'] all were given their modern meanings in Feuchtersleben's book and subsequently diffused through the psychiatric literature. The "founder of psychosomatic medicine as a systematic discipline ... (Feuchtersleben) gave articulate expression to the principle that man is a psychophysical totality". (Roback. (1961), p. 282). Straddling the split in psychiatry between physiology and psychology, Feuchtersleben both championed the use of psychotherapy with the mentally diseased (a method he called "second education") and insisted that psychosis always entailed disturbed physical function.

The Rare First Separate Appearance of the Case of Dora

Freud, Sigm[und].

Bruchstück einer Hysterie-Analyse. Sonder-Abdruck aus Monatsschr. f. Psychiatrie und Neurologie Bd. XVIII, H. 4. Berlin: Verlag von S. Karger, [1905]. 1st separate Edition. Pp. [285]-308+409-467. Thin 8vo. Later marbled boards with drab black cloth spine and corners. Considerable early pencil-scoring, ink owner's initials to the first page, 6 cm. horizontal tear from the bottom margin of page 427 nicely repaired with rice paper but with an old yellow stain from the original (but now removed) scotch tape, sheets closely cropped (especially the vertical margins), still a decent copy of an essentially impossible-to-find separate. Rare. . This is only the second copy we have had in the 36 years we've dealt in rare psychoanalytica (the first copy went to the Library of Congress's Freud collection in the 1980s).SZ. Freud's first separately published case history was his (not very successful) treatment of Ida Bauer (born 1882) from October, 1900 to January 1901. Freud wrote most of the text in January and early February, 1901, though the paper did not appear in print until four years later, in the journal's October and November, 1905 issues. Translated as "Fragment of an Analysis of a Case of Hysteria" in volume 3 of Freud's Collected Papers (Hogarth, 1925), also see the Standard Edition VII, pages 3-122.

Ida terminated her analysis abruptly. When she asked Freud to accept her back in 1902, he turned her down, doubting her motives. Beginning with Erik Erikson's 1962 critique ("Reality and Actuality" JAPA 10:451-474) a fairly large literature has accumulated about the Dora case, most of it negative. As Strachey wrote in his introduction to the text for the Standard Edition, "... this forms a link between The Interpretation of Dreams and the Three Essays [on Sexuality]. It looks back to the one and forward to the other" [SE 7, p. 4]. However, as Emmanuel Berman wrote in The Freud Encyclopedia, "While many authors describe the analysis as a total failure, [Hannah] Decker (1991) reminds us that Freud listened to Dora more than any prior physician did, and was the first person to believe her stories, although he remained unempathic to her plight. Though truncated and faulty, the brief analysis helped her confront Herr and Frau K. with the truth, and subsequently separate from her parents, get married, and become a mother. Moreover, while Freud presents Dora through his own prism, he appears to allow her personality and voice enough presence ... to enable contemporary readers to form an identification with her, formulate their own clinical interpretations, and script alternative ways of treating her, thus fulfilling the powerful rescue fantasies her drama appears to arouse" [p. 157]. Berman's entry in the Encyclopedia under "Dora" (pp. 154-157) is probably the best brief discussion of the Dora case.

By far the greatest luminary of 19th century British neurology, Jackson introduced evolutionary and hierarchical concepts into neurology -- in effect giving birth to modern neuropsychology -- and founded the psychological study of aphasia. He published no books in his own lifetime. This posthumous gathering of 69 papers affords the only practical access in book form to Jackson's work.

The classic and widely used Roman Catholic text on witchcraft. Although condemned by the Inquisition in 1490 and never officially used by the Church, the Malleus nevertheless set the standard for the next two centuries for interrogating suspected witches. It was compiled by two Dominican inquisitors who submitted the book to the University of Cologne's Faculty of Theology on May 9, 1487, hoping for an endorsement (instead they ended up receiving a condemnation for its use of unethical legal procedures and because its demonology was not consistent with Catholic doctrine). With 13 editions by 1520 the book filled an obvious need for a practical and judicial manual. Widely used throughout Central and Western Europe, though less so in England and the Netherlands, the Malleus was accepted as authoritative by both Catholics and Protestants. From the beginning it was the most influential Renaissance guide for popular witchhunters. The senior author, Kramer, is also often known through the Latin form of his name, Institorius.

An early American case of somnambulism, probably a multiple personality. "An account of a 'sleep-talker' ... who did just what the title says. She is depicted as a 'hale country lass of ninetee,' quite taciturn, who speaks with a heavy southern drawl. But when asleep she would deliver exhortations and prayers with a 'clear, harmonious voice.' The book describes her condition and gives an example of her preaching" [Crabtree].

Professor of Neurology at Tufts, Myerson became interested in psychiatric genetics when he collaborated around 1910 with the St. Louis neuropsychiatrist William Washington Graves. Myerson served as clinical director and pathologist at Taunton State Hospital in Massachusets from 1913 to 1917. There he studied the records of all patients admitted since 1854, examining current patients and their relatives. He published his findings here, dedicating the book to Graves. Myerson showed that ten percent of the families involved had had more than one member committed, and concluded that schizophrenia and manic-depressive psychosis appeared to be hereditary, while other mental diseases did not.

Not much is known about Nourse, whom the DNB describes as a miscellaneous writer. He matriculated at University College, Oxford, in 1655; entered holy orders and became a notable preacher; converted to Roman Catholicism in 1672, recanted during an illness in 1677, then recanted his recantation after recovering. He published three books, of which this is his first. A second edition appeared in 1697 (the DNB also lists a 1689 imprint, but we have found no record of it). Nourse's book is of some significance in that it marks a transition from regarding evidence provided by the body as inferior to reason and revelation to esteeming the body and its ways of knowing the world. Nourse argues that man possesses two souls, one conformable to "the Animal Faculties," and one to "the Rational Faculties" -- or body and mind, which interact through the Passions. This led Nourse to revalue the body and sensation, hitherto theologically devalued as the site of corruption and error, thus pointing to a future that greatly valued sensation as, on the one hand, the foundation of aesthetics, and, on the other hand, the source for scientific knowledge.

Prichard coined the vastly influential concept "moral insanity" which he briefly described in the Cyclopedia of Practical Medicine, 1833-35, and which he fully described in the present work. The standard British psychiatric text until Bucknill & Tuke (1858), Prichard"s Treatise is also the first extensive description of psychopathy. In 1888 Koch introduced the term "psychopathic inferiority" which Kraepelin adopted. Meyer used the term "constitutional psychopathic inferior" in 1905 while Cleckley gave the classic exposition of the syndrome in his 1941 Mask of Sanity. The modern descriptions vary little from Prichard"s while his term "moral insanity" is more descriptive of the disorder"s phenomenology than its pallid replacement "psychopathy."

Autograph Letter, signed "AAR." Written on his printed 8vo memorandum stationary with his printed address and phone number, 14 lines plus heading & salutation, undated but probably late 1950s. 8vo. Entirely devoted to an a analysis of Dr. [Stanley W.] Jackson's character traits based on his handwriting.

Quite a nice letter, given Roback's importance in introducing European graphology and handwriting analysis into the USA. Item # 87775 Inquire | Order $100.00

Polish-born and reared in Montreal, Roback got his B.A. from McGill in 1912, M.A. from Harvard in 1913 and Ph.D. in psychology from Harvard in 1917. From 1917 on he lived in Cambridge, Mass. Probably because of his Jewishness, Roback never got an important academic position, though he was an instructor in psychology at numerous Boston area universities, including Harvard, M.I.T., and Northeastern. The bulk of his papers are housed at Harvard's Houghton Library, though they are not sure how or when Harvard got them. Despite his lack of a professorship, Roback made numerous significant contributions to clinical psychology, the history of psychology, and the study of Yiddish language and folkore. His 1925 Psychology of Character, which essentially introduced European graphology to an American audience, was widely influential. In the 1920s he published the first book-length bibliographies of both behaviorism and personality/character studies, as well as one of the first book-length studies of behaviorism. His 1942 books on William James and his 1957 Freudiana both contain much important material. His 1952 History of American Psychology was the first book on the subject, while his posthumous 1969 Pictorial History of Psychology and Psychiatry was the first copiously ilustrated history of either field and still contains much valuable information not easily found elsewhere. He corresponded with numerous luminaries. His interesting correspondence with Freud, which began in 1929 after Roback had sent Freud a copy of his just published (by himself, of course) Jewish Influence in Modern Thought was partly reprinted in Freudiana.
