The Ursprung for German Psychiatry

180. Reil, Johann Christian (1759-1813).

Along with Pinel's 1801 treatise, than which it is much rarer, the foundation text for modern psychiatry and the Ur-text for German psychiatry. T he son of a pastor, Reil published in 1796 De structura nervorum, one of the great books in the history of neurology, founding in the same year the Archiv für Physiologie. By the time his Rhapsodien was published Re il had been professor of medicine at Halle for 15 years and was recognized as one of the leaders of German medicine. GM-5 4923; Heirs of Hippocrates 1163 (1818 2nd edition); Norman catalog 1821. 1 pound = 464 grams. 8.6 x 5.0 x 1.0 inches = 21.5 x 12.5 x 2.5cm.

In the present work -- regarded by Alexander and Selesnick as the first systematic treatise of psychotherapy -- Reil "described the conditions which we would today call psychoneuroses. He observed cases of depersonalization and of double pers onality. He was interested in the patients' introspective self-observations, that is, in the ideational content and what we call trends. He gave a detailed and truly enlightened description of what a mental hospital should be" [Zilboorg (194 2) p. 288]. "While the title is usually quoted and considered to reflect Romantic notions, it is important to note that Reil used the term Rhapsodie to denote Kant's concept of a natural science based on empirical knowledge." Reil "proposed an empi rical psychology for and by physicians, different from the psychology of the philosophers ... While Reil saw the mind as acting in unison, he differentiated three primary closely related mental powers, which he found most notably affected in mental illne ss and to which the mental therapy of mental illness was to be primarily directed. They are consciousness, circumspection, and attention (Bewusstsein Besonnenheit and Aufmerksamkeit)" [Otto Marx, "German Romantic Psychiatry Part I" in Wallace & Gach Encyclopedic Handbook for the History of Psychiatry, Springer, forthcoming].

His work is especially important because of his numerous condensations of previous literature and his precise references to many writers otherwise forgotten or overlooked. One of the most significant portions of his work is his monograph on epilepsy . . . Overall, Tissot's importance is due to his clear differentiation between diseases of the nervous systme and the pathology of other body systems, w hich laid the foundation for modern neurology" [Heirs of Hippocrates #980 [the complete Traité, 1778-1780 edition].

According to GM Unzer was probably the first to use the term 'reflex' in connection with sensori-motor reactions while Prochaska developed a comprehensive theory of reflex action based on his concepts of vis nervosa (a latent power possessed by the nerves) and sensorium commune (the point of reflection between the sensory and motor nerves), See pages 90-97 in Fearing's Reflex Action: A Study in the History of Physiological Psychology for a good discussion of both Unzer and Proch aska.
