With carbon copies of typed letters from Rosenzweig to Allport dated June 28 and July 26, 1938. Allport writes that Rosenzweig's revisions (proposed in his June 28 letter) are entirely satisfactory. They will not appear in the galley proofs but the changes will be made in galley ("at that time" crossed out with "in galley" inserted by hand). Allport goes on to note that the thesis R had asked about is William Huntley's Judgments of Self Based Upon Records of Expressive Behavior. Huntley "checks [Werner] Wolff's findings and extends them but sees no reason to adopts all of Wolff's psychoanalytic explanations. Allport closes by noting that he hopes to attend R's symposium on frustration at Columbia and promises "to sit where I can hear every word if I come." The paper that the correspondence is about was Rosensweig's "A Basis for the Improvement of Personality Tests."
Rosenzweig (1907-2004) was from 1948 on Professor of Psychology at Washington University in St. Louis. At the time of this correspondence he had just been appointed a lecturer at Clark University.

Robert L. Robinson (1916-1980) was the APA's first director of public affairs, appointed in 1948. He was the driving force behind both DSM-I and DSM-II.
The APA's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual has two distinct lines of descent, one acknowledged and the other not. The official line of descent begins with the association's adoption at its annual meeting in May, 1917 of the nomenclatural and classificatory scheme proposed in the report submitted by its Committee on Statistics, which had begun working on the problem in 1913, mostly with statistical issues in mind. The report was published in Volume 74 No. 2 of The American Journal of Insanity (pp. 255-270) as part of the association's proceedings for the 1917 annual meeting. Though primarily statistical, the report filled a void with its classification of mental diseases. It was adopted by the National Committee for Mental Hygiene and in 1923 published collaboratively with the APA's Committee on Statistics as a 48 page booklet titled Statistical Manual for the Use of Hospitals for Mental Disease. Widely distributed to American psychiatric hospitals, this became the de facto nosological standard and saw 10 revisions, the last being in 1942, reprinted in 1945. The major revision was for the 1934 6th edition (incorrectly cited on page vi as the 8th edition), which included the classification system of Henry B. Logie's A Standard Classified Nomenclature of Disease (Commonwealth Fund, 1933, with a preliminary version appearing in 1932). Then in October, 1945 the army issued its Technical Medical Bulletin 203 on Nomenclature and Method of Recording Diagnoses. The diagnostic categories and nomenclature of the Statistical Manual and the mental disease section of Standard Classified Nomenclature had turned out to be completely inadequate for classifying and identifying mental disorders during World War II, since the existing systems were designed for the kinds of cases seen in civilian mental hospitals. In 1944 the navy made a partial revision, but the Army attempted a wholesale change, completely abandoning the basic outline of the Standard. Part of the army bulletin appeared in 1946 in the British Journal of Mental Science as "Psychiatric Disorders and Reactions: Definitions and Manner of Recording" (Vol. 92, no. 387, pp. 425-441. The army system was in short order adopted throughout the American Armed Forces. In 1946 the Veterans Administration adopted a similar system; in 1948 a revised International Statistical Classification also categorized mental disorders in a way similar to the Army system. Thus was born DSM-I in an attempt to rationalize the different systems of classification and nomenclature. Most of this line of descent is acknowledged in the introduction to DSM-I. The second, quite unattributed, line of descent is from Adolf Meyer. As early as 1905-1906 Meyer had designed at Manhattan State Hospital a form for describing and classifying mental patients based on his emerging psychobiological ideas. This was finally written up and published in modified form by George H. Kirby in 1921 as Guides for History Taking and Clinical Examination of Psychiatric Cases, revised in 1934 by Clarence O. Cheney and again in 1943 by Nolan D. C. Lewis, with the latter two editions being titled Outlines for Psychiatric Examinations. DSM-I, quite unlike its later incarnations from 1968 on as DSM-II, -III, and so on probably to infinity, is quite Meyerian, as evidenced by its explicit use of Meyerian terms like "psychobiology" and "reactions." In fact one can see the Meyerian influence in the use of the term "Reactions" in the form of the Army Medical Bulletin published in the Journal of Mental Science. Both Cheney's and Lewis's editions of the Kirby Manual included the Classification of Mental Disorders from the Standard Classified Nomenclature of Disease (though both editors complained about its inadequacies), with Cheney's incorporating the classificatory scheme from the first edition and Lewis from the 1942 revision. All three editions were widely used as practical guides.

An Important Autograph Letter from the Founder of the Mental Hygiene Movement

Beers, Clifford Whittingham (1876-1943).

Autograph Letter Signed, 1 1/2 pages (29 lines), 4to, to L. Vernon Briggs on the printed Connecticut Society for Mental Hygiene Stationary, dated May 29, 1910. Lightly browned and with slight wear along the edges, creased horizontally, very good. Quite uncommon. Signed "Clifford W Beers". The founder of the Mental Hygiene movement, Beers's account of his mental illness and recovery, published in 1908 as A Mind That Found Itself led to his founding first the Connecticut Society for Mental Hygiene in 1908, and then in 1910 the National Committee for Mental Hygiene, with the aim of improving care & treatment of the mentally ill. Eventually mental hygiene societies existed in all 50 states and in 30 other countries. Item # 88481. Inquire | Order $375.00

Responding to Briggs's reply to a letter Beers had written on May 10 requesting advance criticism of a paper soon to be delivered at the National Conference of Charities, Beers writes: This is the first opportunity I have had to answer your timely letter of two weeks ago. I had not realized until you called my attention to it, that I seemed to be taking myself out of the ranks of the militant reformers. So I changed the text of my address. I said, "If I have abandoned the rôle of militant reformer, and I have so far as legislative investigations are concerned," this leaves me free to again become militant regarding any other phase of the work and I shall become militant before many months in a way which I am sure will please you. I aim to write an article on Non-Restraint for one of the leading magazines -- and with its illustrations, it will be as stirring a piece of writing as I have ever done. This I tell you in confidence. [Paragraph] Another change I made in my address was to say that the work of the Connecticut Society is under the guidance of hospital physicians, rather than under their control, which in fact it isn't. [Paragraph] With renewed thanks for your criticism and good wishes ...
An important letter that provides considerable insight into Beers's method and style during the formative period of the national mental hygiene movement. A Boston psychiatrist and passionate psychiatric reformer, Lloyd Vernon Briggs (1863-1941) became prominent in 1906 when, shocked by the practice of locking the mentally ill in jail over the weekend until court convened again on Monday, he led a dramatic battle to remedy the situation. In 1909 he began to fight for an outpatient department for the Boston State Hospital, which came into being in 1912 largely through Briggs's efforts. In 1921 Massachusetts passed landmark legislation, known as the Briggs Law, which requires an impartial psychiatric examination of those accused of a serious crime or of those who are recidivists [See Walter E. Barton's The History and Influence of the American Psychiatric Association, pp. 149-150].

Written as a follow-up to his 1825 treatise on physiology as applied to pathology, these commentaries contain discussions of insanity, neuroses, neuropathy, idiocy, etc.. A French physician born at Saint-Malo, Broussais was appointed professor of general pathology at the University of Paris in 1821. An acrimonious opponent to Pinel's work, he believed that gastro-intestinal irritation was the cause of most diseases, including insanity.

The extensively enlarged & revised edition of Spencer's "Psychology" (which is what is here abstracted) is a key book in the development of neurology and neuropsychology, since it was the source of Hughlings Jackson's ideas of evolved hierarchies, with the most recently acquired mental functions being lost first.

The first part of The Principles of Ethics, the final volumes of his grand Synthetic Philosophy, on which Spencer worked for the greater part of his life. As noted in the preface, The Data of Ethics appeared out of order, before the second and third volumes of the Principles of Sociology. "Spencer considered the Synthetic Philosophy's final two volumes, the Principles of Ethics, to be the crowning achievement of his work. In them he returned to many of the themes and ideas he had first explored in the [1851] Social Statics, although now mediated through a more explicitly evolutionary perspective. ... The ethical theory that emerged from these speculations was a form of rule utilitarianism ..." [Dictionary of Nineteenth-Century British Philosophy vol. 2:1056].

"In 1886 Spencer composed a long two-part article, 'The Factors of Organic Evolution', in which he defended the role of functionally acquired modification in evolution, frequently citing Darwin's own employment of the device in the Origin of the Species and Descent of Man. In the preface to the republication of the articles in book form the next year, he declared what was at stake in his defense of the mechanism of acquired modifications. It was the 'indirect bearings upon Psychology, Ethics, and Sociology.' The profound importance of these bearings on the social sciences, he confessed, was 'originally a chief prompter to set forth the argument; and it now prompts me to re-issue in in permanent form.' Survival of the fittest was too crude a mechanism to yield up delicate mental structures, refined social adaptations, and a keen sense of justice -- especially since these highly evolved traits had no survival value" [Robert J. Richards, Darwin and the Emergence of Evolutionary Theories of Mind and Behavior, p. 293]. Indeed, Richards argues, "Modern physiological and cognitive psychology is Kantian. Not in the way Kant was a Kantian, but in the way Spencer was. The infant comes into the world already outfitted with perceptual and cognitive categories by which it organizes its experience. It does not encounter Dingen an sich but objects that bear the marks of the races's evolutionary history. Though we now, of course, reject the inheritance of acquired characters, we still must agree with Spencer that human nature arises out of experience -- our own immediate experience, that which constitutes our individual history, and, most importantly, the adaptational experiences of our ancestors" [p. 328].

The opening salvo of a heated dispute between Spencer and Weismann over the sufficiency of natural selection as an explanation for evolution. "In 1890 Spencer first became aware of August Weismann's attacks on the inheritance of acquired characters. Feeling that the journal Nature had displayed some bias in favor of the ultra-Darwinians, Spencer launched a counterassault in the pages of the Contemporary Review against the presumption that natural selection alone could explain all the phenomena of evolution. Attacking the views particularly of Weismann, he outlined a number of cases, highlighted by those of coadaptation, that he believed demonstrated the inadequacy of natural selection for the task assigned it by the ultra-Darwinians. The controversy generated responses from Weismann and Romanes, and rebuttals from Spencer. Some historians, knowing how the evolution story ends, have thought Spencer's arguments 'fallacious' and have declared Weismann the winner. A less hindsightful reading does not leave that impression" [Robert J. Richards Darwin and the Emergence of Evolutionary Theories of Mind and Behavior, pp. 293-294].

"The Principles of Biology attempted to reconcile the new Darwinian theory of natural selection with the Lamarckian mechanism of acquired characteristics which Spencer had endorsed long before publication of the Origin of the Species. In Spencer's view, while the Darwinian theory could explain most of biological evolution, the Lamarckian mechanism was necessary to explain 'higher' evolution, and especially the social behaviour of humanity. Both theories, however, instantiated the principle of evolution. In this sense, therefore, it is incorrect to characterize Spencer as a follower of Darwin. Although he coined the phrase 'survival of the fittest', and is often misrepresentated as a thinker who merely applied the Darwininan theory to society, he did not aim to generalize Darwin, but rather to show that natural selection could be accomodated within an overarching principle of evolution that Spencer had independently developed. Biological organisms could be shown to progress, both as individuals and as species, from simple, undifferentiated, homogeneity to complex, differentiated, heterogeneity; the Darwinian theory was only of significance in providing a partial explanation for this universally observed tendency" [Dictionary of Nineteenth-Century British Philosophy vol. 2:1055].

Inquire | Order $400.00

Social Statics extended and developed several themes Spencer had originally expressed in his 1842 pamphlet The Proper Sphere of Government. "However, the Social Statics also contained the germ of what was to become one of the hallmarks of Spencer's philosophical work, his emphasis on finding a synthesis between contending schools of thought. In this book Spencer gave attention for the first time to utilitarianism, which he argued was a partial doctrine, needing to be supplemented by the insights of an intuitionistic natural rights theory to provide a satisfactory theory of morals. he also postulated a future state, the 'social statics' of the book's title, in which humankind would become sufficiently well adapted to the social condition that each individual would act instinctively to respect the rights of every other. Hence the need for law and government would disappear. In Spencer's youthful exuberance he believed that civilization was on the verge of achieving this state. By the time he had returned to the same themes at the culmination of the Synthetic Philosophy forty years later, he had come to believe that the condition of social statics would only be achieved, if at all, as the result of the glacial processes of evolution" [Dictionary of Nineteenth-Century British Philosophers vol. 2:1053].

An Early Argument for the Possibility of Stem Cells

Spencer, Herbert.

Weismannism Once More. Reprinted from "The Contemporary Review" with a Postscript. London: Williams & Norgate, 1894. 1st separate Edition. 24pp. + 12 rear blank leaves added by the binder. Thin 8vo.

Spencer's response to Weismann's Romanes Lecture, given at Oxford in December 1893, regarded by Spencer as an attempt to refute his own arguments in favor of the inheritance of acquired characteristics -- arguments Spencer had been making since at least the middle-1850s, even before the publication of Darwin's Origin of the Species in 1859, and which had perhaps been stated most forcefully in his Principles of Biology (1864-1867), in which he had coined the phrase "survival of the fittest," and in his 1887 Factors of Organic Evolution.
In a number of remarkable works published in the early 1890s August Weismann (1834-1914) had provided experimental evidence against the inheritance of acquired characteristics and in favor of of the union of two parent germ cells as the vehicle for natural selection. Spencer would have none of this. Here Spencer gave his final rebuttal in the ongoing debate with Weismann and Romanes over the sufficiency of natural selection via inheritance through specialized reproductive cells as an explanation for evolution. This debate had been carried out in the pages of The Contemporary Review. As Robert Richards observed in his magisterial Darwin and the Emergence of Evolutionary Theories of Mind and Behavior (pp. 291-294), Spencer's objections to natural selection as the sole mechanism for the evolution of the complex systems of coadaptations found in men and animals "lodged an objection in the throat of natural selection that at times during the latter part of the century threatened to choke it off as a major force in evolution" (p. 292, and see the list of Contemporary Review papers in footnote 161 on p. 293). Richards goes on to write "Some historians, knowing how the evolution story ends, have thought Spencer's arguments 'fallacious' and have declared Weismann the winner. A less hindsightful reading does not leave that impression" (pp. 293-94).
• The one-page postcript added to this offprinted version is of particular interest, as it directly prefigures the possibility of stem cell research: "These evidences, furnished by independent observers, unite in showing, firstly, that all the multiplying cells of the developing embryo are alike; and, secondly, that the soma-cells of the adult severally retain, in a latent form, all the powers of the original embryo-cell."

A long and significant letter in which Terman is responding to criticisms made by Saul Rosenzweig of Terman's and Catherine Miles's M[asculine]-F[eminine] Test. The critique appeared in Rosenzweig's paper "A Basis for the Improvement of Personality Tests," published in 1938 in the Journal of Abnormal and Social Psychology. Terman writes that R's characterization of their approach as "purely statistical" is misleading and that Thurstone would consider their approach "very far from purely statistical." Terman goes on at length to explain that R's quarrel is actuallty with their empirical approach. From Geddes and Thompson on there has been lots of theorizing about sex differences. "My opinion is that most of these speculations are sterile." Based on a review of the existing experimental literature, he and Miles came up with hunches for the construction of the test. Terman goes on to address R's criticisms that the M-F test is not primarily a test of performance and that it can be faked if the subject knows its purpose. "[A]mong the hundreds of subjects whom we have asked to indicate what they think the test is intended to measure, not one has ever given the correct answer." R had praised the Rorschach test as an example for validity and cogency. Terman responds that "so far as its present form is concerned, it has been greatly over-praised by its author and others." Terman agrees that "it would be desirable to have an M-F test the score of which would be less influenced by past reactions than by present reactions." Terman used to share R's prejudice against association tests that allow for only a few given responses, but now things that it makes little difference. R's claim that a large proportion of the items test politeness is true only for a small number of items on the test. They took care to avoid "including certain types of items which would undoubtedly havd yielded enormous sex differences, that is, items which necessarily bring feminine responses from women and masculine responses from men. This was especially true in regard to the information test." Inked in here by hand is "E.g., we avoided asking the meaning of the word 'Kotex'". "In conclusion I have to admit that some of your criticisms are unwarranted altogether and that others are partly warranted but a little unfair."

Sent to Rosenzweig while he was at the Western State Psychiatric Institute in Pittsburgh. The note reads in full: "620 W. 116 St // Friday // Dear Dr. Rosenzweig: // The Hudson Review, 39 West 11 Street, N.Y.C. // [I think it has not yet brought out its first number.] // How about the University of Kansas // City Review? This is very possible // as a medium for your piece -- quite // a good journal. Less good but possible // is Perspective, 216 Merger, University of Kentucky, Louisville. // Sincerely // Lionel Trilling". The Hudson Review was founded in 1947. That plus the "Mar 27" stamped by the post office, plus an earlier note from Trilling dated "18 March 1948" definitively dates this postcard as being written Friday, March 26, 1948. Rosenzweig had submitted to the Partisan Review a paper doing a psychological analysis of two recent Broadway plays. Rosenzweig must have appealed to Trilling after Rahv rejected his paper. In an earlier letter dated March 18 Trilling had supported Rahv's judgment that the PR shouldn't publish it, but had suggested several other possible journals. Here he is obviously responding to Rosenzweig's request for the addresses of other literary journals to which he could submit his paper.
Trilling was, along with Edmund Wilson, the most influential American literary critic of the 20th century. Saul Rosenzweig (1907-2004) received his PhD in psychology in 1932 from Harvard, where he had been a friend and classmate of B. F. Skinner's. From 1948 on he was Professor of Psychology at Washington University in St. Louis. His 1936 paper "Some Implicit Common Factors in Diverse Forms of Psychotherapy" was the foundation text for the "common factors" movement.

Trilling, Lionel.

Typed Letter Signed, dated 18 March, 1948 on his printed stationary, to Dr. Saul Rosenzweig. Sent to Rosenzweig while he was at the Western State Psychiatric Institute in Pittsburgh. 42 lines, typed on both sides of his wide 16mo stationary. Rosenzweig had submitted a psychoanalytic paper to The Partisan Review, which Philip Rahv must have rejected, with Rosenzweig appealing to Trilling for a second opinion. Trilling writes back that he agrees with Rahv's judgment, but Rosensweig's idea is more impressive than the two current Broadway plays he used to illustrate his idea. Trilling suggests several other literary journals that might be interested in publishing the essay and concludes with "I do wish you could find the time to revise the paper and free it from the plays. It is my feeling that psychoanalysis does not sufficiently speak out to help define the issues of personality and morality and it seems to me that your idea is of first importance. Item # 88501.
