Full textAbstract:
AbstractThe modern notion of sexuality took shape at the end of the nineteenth century, especially in the works of Richard von Krafft-Ebing and Albert Moll. This modernisation of sexuality was closely linked to the recognition of sexual diversity, as it was articulated in the medical–psychiatric understanding of what, at that time, was labelled as perversion. From around 1870, psychiatrists shifted the focus from immoral acts, a temporary deviation of the norm, to an innate morbid condition. In the late nineteenth century, several psychiatrists, collecting and publishing more and more case histories, classified and explained the wide range of deviant sexual behaviours they traced. The emergence of medical sexology meant that perversions could be diagnosed and discussed. Against this background both Krafft-Ebing and Moll articulated a new perspective, not only on perversion, but also on sexuality in general. Krafft-Ebing initiated and Moll elaborated a shift from a psychiatric perspective in which deviant sexuality was explained as a derived, episodic and more or less singular symptom of a more fundamental mental disorder, to a consideration of perversion as an integral part of a more general, autonomous and continuous sexual instinct. Before Sigmund Freud and others had expressed similar views, it was primarily through the writings of Krafft-Ebing and Moll that a new understanding of human sexuality emerged.

Full textAbstract:
Em 1886, o psiquiatra Richard von Krafft-Ebing lançou a Psychopathia Sexualis, primeiro manual de diagnóstico de perversões sexuais e se tornou o responsável por articular uma nova perspectiva para o estudo da sexualidade. Sua abordagem atravessou séculos e até hoje tem consequências diretas na ideia de sexualidade humana contemporânea. Este estudo pretende retomar a história do conceito de fetichismo dentro da Psychopathia Sexualis para demonstrar como, na teoria psiquiátrica de Krafft-Ebing, o fetichismo se tornou mais do que uma patologia ou peculiaridade sexual, passando a designar a manifestação inicial do processo do instinto sexual nos seres humanos, convertendo-se em um conceito-chave para a teoria da sexualidade.

A tanulmányfő állítása, hogy a modern leszbikus narratívák a huszadik század elejétől kezdődően ellennarratívaként jelentek meg, válaszként a tizenkilencedik századi szexológia állításaira, amely a leszbikust természetellenesnek és erkölcstelennek definiálta. Az elemzés három leszbikus regényt elemez, A magány kútját Radclyffe Halltól, a Tavaszi Tűzet Vin Packertől, és A Só Árát Patricia Highsmithtől. Ezek a szövegek a Richard von Krafft-Ebing és Havelock Ellis által kialakított terminológia újra értelmezései, szubverzív intertextuális láncolatot hoztak létre a leszbikus láthatóság érdekében. Az elemzés a narratívákban visszatérő témákra fókuszál, melyek a leszbikus vágyat egy másik nőhöz való vonzódásként és a heteroszexualitás elvárásaitól szükséges eltávolodásként gondolják el. Tamsin Wilton, Adrienne Rich és Julia Abraham gondolatait követve, a leszbikusság társadalmi pozicionáltságként értelmeződik, amely megkérdőjelezi a korabeli, Krafft-Ebing és Ellis által képviselt heteronormatív kánon fennhatóságát.

Full textAbstract:
This reexamination of Josef Hoffmann's Purkersdorf Sanatorium (Purkersdorf, Austria, 1904-1905) takes as its starting point the fact that Hoffmann's building was built as part of a complex founded by the psychologist Richard von Krafft-Ebing as a sanatorium for nervous ailments. Krafft-Ebing believed that the modern metropolis was ruining the nervous health of its inhabitants and called for the widespread establishment of sanatoriums to treat the nervous case. The article proposes that Krafft-Ebing's appeal to the healing power of light, air, nature, simplicity, and regularity influenced Hoffmann's design for the Purkersdorf Sanatorium. Also influential, it argues, was the fact that around 1900 the scientific basis of Krafft-Ebing's physical approach to neurosis was being shaken by Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic method. The self-consciously "technological" aspects of Hoffmann's design helped to reinforce the perception among patients that their ailments were being treated in a rational, fact-based manner.

Full textAbstract:
This article analyses the slippery notions of the normal and normality in select works of Richard von Krafft-Ebing (1840–1902) and Sigmund Freud (1856–1939) and argues that homosexuality became a ‘boundary object’ between the normal and the abnormal in their works. Constructing homosexuality as ‘normal enough’ provided these two key thinkers of the fin de siècle with an opportunity to challenge societal and medical norms: Krafft-Ebing did this through mapping perversions; Freud, by challenging perceived norms about sexual development more broadly. The article submits that the scientific logic presented in Krafft-Ebing’s seminal case study compilation Psychopathia Sexualis and Freud’s early theoretical writings and cases, including Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality (1905), was itself haunted by notions of norms and the normal that were not always easy to resolve, and sometimes involved a certain amount of inspired conjecture on the part of both thinkers in order to develop and validate their differing tripartite models of normality. Krafft-Ebing imagined homosexuality as a variation of the normal by generalizing a gay male experience. He also recorded the obstreperous cases of homosexual women based largely inside the clinic but by and large ignored this evidence. Freud inextricably bound homosexuality to normality (and vice versa) by redefining homosexuals as a group to include individuals with unconscious same-sex desire. Doing so allowed him to conceptualize the fear of homosexuality as crucial in the formation of neurosis and psychosis, and at the same time put him at odds with relevant early identity politics.

Full textAbstract:
Sadism is a concept that is applied to rape–torture and rape–murder as well as the pleasures of consensual sadomasochism. From the 1890s, forensic psychiatrist Richard von Krafft-Ebing was responsible for popularising the term. This article explores Krafft-Ebing’s understanding of the “degenerative” sadist and looks at how popular and psychiatric ideas changed over the past century. Why did it quickly become a common term in society? Why was sadism regarded as a “perversion” of “normal” male sexuality? In forensic terms, one interesting thing about the invention of sadism is why it needed to be coined in the first place. What was it about the sexual that necessitated a different category?

Full textAbstract:
Fetishism, as a technical descriptor of atypical sexual behaviour, was noted in the writings of the well-known nineteenth century French psychologist Alfred Binet (1857–1911) (Binet, 1887) as well as prominent European sexologists Richard von Krafft-Ebing (1840–1902) (Krafft-Ebing, 1886), Havelock Ellis (1859–1939) (Ellis, 1906), and Magnus Hirschfeld (1868– 1935) (Hirschfeld, 1956). In their seminal writings, all of the afore mentioned sexologists used the terms “fetish” and “fetishism” to specifically describe an intense eroticization of either non-living objects and/or specific body parts that were symbolically associated with a person. Fetishes could be non clinical manifestations of a normal spectrum of eroticization or clinical disorders causing significant interpersonal difficulties. Ellis (1906) observed that body secretions or body products could also become fetishist expressions of “erotic symbolism”. Freud (1928) considered both body parts (e.g., the foot) or objects associated with the body (e.g., shoes) as fetish objects. For the purposes of this review, a “broader” historically based core definition for Fetishism will include intense and recurrent sexual arousal to: non-living objects, an exclusive focus on body parts or body products. Keywords: fetishism, Paraphilia, Partialism, DSM-V.

Este trabalho propõe uma leitura psicanalítica do termo "masoquismo" partindo dos traços da obra de Léopold Sacher Masoch cuja notoriedade foi assegurada pelo sucesso desse termo cunhado pelo seu contemporâneo Richard Von Krafft Ebing. Apresentamos hipóteses relacionadas à problemática do masoquismo tal como ela pode se apresentar no contexto da transferência e da contratransferência. Identificar em uma cura o que pode se opor ao seu sucesso e perceber as causas e o que está em jogo na relação terapêutica negativa fazem parte de momentos críticos que podem estar relacionados ao masoquismo e seus efeitos. Para desenvolvermos tais reflexões, baseamo-nos em um caso clínico de negação da gravidez.

Pretende-se examinar a origem de uma palavra - narcisismo - levando em consideração as primeiras descrições clínicas e teorias associadas a ela. Trata-se, por meio de uma visão diacrônica, de acompanhar - e de interpretar - a montagem de um quadro clínico psiquiátrico do final do século XIX que se edificou ao redor dessa palavra. Para isso, os autores operam um retorno aos textos dos primeiros teóricos do narcisismo - Alfred Binet, Havelock Ellis, Paul Näcke e Richard von Krafft-Ebing -, evidenciando como cada um concebeu essa noção. Isso permite uma revisão do que consta no verbete narcisismo, encontrado principalmente nos dicionários de psicanálise, sobre a origem desse conceito.

Es la obra de Sigmund Freud el punto de ruptura con los antiguos conceptos que fueron desarrollados por el positivismo. El psicoanálisis, al introducir nuevos conceptos como, el de «objeto (Object) sexual» y el de «fin (Ziel) sexual» y manifestar que las perversiones quedan ligadas al desarrollo que siga, en su evolución, la sexualidad infantil, posibilitó la aparición de una nueva nosografía que desde 1905 inspira todos los escritos sobre el tema.

Full textAbstract:
Michel Foucault's The History of Sexuality has been the subject of debate among historians for decades. More specifically, his assertion, ‘the sodomite was a temporary aberration, the homosexual was now a species,’ has been used to support an ‘acts-to-identity’ theory that locates in the late-nineteenth century a shift in thinking about sexuality. The author argues that a re-reading of Foucault shifts the focus of historical inquiry from identities towards the process of knowledge creation, allowing for ambiguity that the concept ‘identity’ might foreclose. This essay examines the debate and offers a new reading of Foucault based on the work of Lynne Huffer. Finally, the author seeks to centre a source-driven approach in conjunction with The History of Sexuality, providing readings of patients and informants from the work of Richard von Krafft-Ebing and Havelock Ellis.

Full textAbstract:
While best known in the anglophonic world for his work on sexual deviations and his advocacy for degeneration theory, Richard Krafft-Ebing (RKE) (1840–1902) was a major figure in late-19th century European psychiatry and author of the most widely read German psychiatric textbook of that era. With the goal of (re-)introducing his work to an anglophonic audience, we review and provide an historical context for RKE's etiologic theory of major psychiatric illness. RKE saw psychiatric disorders as multifactorial, arising from two sets of etiologic factors: predisposing and exciting. Exciting causes were either psychological or physical, while predisposing causes were either general (e.g. sex, occupation, age) or individual-specific. Three major individual-specific risk factors were of particular importance: heredity, personality and education/rearing. Hereditary factors were typically the most important but were usually non-specific in their effect with the forms of psychiatric illness often differing in close relatives. He emphasized the importance of the ‘neuropathic personality,’ which rendered affected individuals sensitive to the pathogenic effects of various exciting influences. Poor rearing could also substantially increase risk for major mental illness. RKE saw the influences of hereditary and rearing factors on psychiatric illness as often mediated through a neuropathic personality. While RKE believed in degeneration theory and emphasized the potential etiologic importance of masturbation in psychiatric illness, his clinical writings were otherwise characterized by a broad-minded and sensible approach that lacked the narrowness of the strongly brain-based or psychoanalytic psychiatric schools which were very influential during and shortly after his life.

Full textAbstract:
Richard von Krafft-Ebing, Jean-Martin Charot, and Havelock Ellis were a few antecedents to Sigmund Freud in identifying, defining, and theorizing the development of homosexuality. However, the majority subscribed to the thought that homosexuality was congenital, albeit unnatural. Havelock Ellis offered some psychological considerations to the condition of homosexuality and was said to have paved the way for more significant developmental explanations that began with Freud. According to Caprio (1954) the congenital theories prior to Freud became “obsolete” (p. 3). Because of the contributions of Freud, psychoanalysts that followed him such as Sandor Rado, Edmund Bergler, Irving Bieber, Lionel Ovesey, and Charles Socarides, to name a few, took on views that homosexuality was developmental in nature. During the phallic phase of development Freud made a pivotal discovery about the oedipal complex. This and other theories of psychosexual development are overviewed. It is important to get an understanding of the basic construct of theory given the rise of deconstruction and reconstruction undertakings.

This paper discusses similarities in the choices of plots and motifs in the short stories The Tattooer (1910) by Japanese writer Tanizaki Jun'ichirō and Tale of a Mad Painter (1935) by Korean writer Kim Dong-in, and hypothesizes a possible connection between them. In order to find out whether these works are really connected, common literary influences on both stories and analyzed stories’ structures and motifs were compared in this thesis. Results revealed that these two works were written under the influence of the same literary works: the theme of the relationship between art and violence and the motif of the artist obsessed with the desire to create an artistic masterpiece in The Tattooer and Tale of a Mad Painter are most likely inspired by Oscar Wilde's novel The Picture of Dorian Gray and Edgar Allan Poe's short story The Oval Portrait, while motifs of sexual perversions are inspired by Psychopathia Sexualis by Richard Freiherr von Krafft-Ebing. Not only two stories were written under the same influences, but the story Tale of a Mad Painter itself intertextually reworked Tanizaki’s The Tattooer adjusting motifs to Korean realities and making the structure more complex.

Full textAbstract:
Der österreichische Schriftsteller Leopold von Sacher-Masoch war zu seiner Zeit – der zweiten Hälfte des neunzehnten Jahrhunderts – ein viel gelesener Erfolgsautor, der für seine zahlreichen Romane und Erzählungen bekannt war, viele davon Stoffe umformend, die aus Osteuropa stammen, beispielsweise aus Polen, Galizien oder aus der Bukowina. Regelrecht berühmt wurde er mit seiner Novelle Venus im Pelz (1870), unter anderem auch dadurch, dass sie in der zeitgenössischen psychiatrischen Forschung rezipiert und von dem Sexualforscher Richard von Krafft-Ebing eingesetzt wurde, um den Begriff Masochismus in dessen Studie Psychopathia Sexualis: Eine klinisch-forensische Studie (1886) in die wissenschaftliche Diskussion einzuführen, wobei verschiedene sexuelle Perversionen in diesem Begriff gebündelt sind.1 Diese Zusammenhänge sind ausführlich erforscht und kommentiert worden, nicht zuletzt in Rezeption von Gilles Deleuzes Studie zu ,,Sacher-Masoch und der Masochismus“, die in der populären Insel-Ausgabe von Venus im Pelz zusammen mit der Novelle abgedruckt ist.2 Die literaturwissenschaftliche Auseinandersetzung mit diesem Text, auch die jüngste, folgt im Allgemeinen dem Angebot der Diskussion dieses Textes in einem psychologischen und kulturtheoretischen Ansatz, wobei entweder die weibliche Handlungskraft,3 der Objektstatus der Frau in ihrer Rolle als Skulptur,4 diverse Figuren der Liebe und des Masochismus,5 die Funktionsweise von ästhetischer Subversion,6 die Nähe zu Freuds Begriff des Unheimlichen7 oder der koloniale Kontext der masochistischen Urszene8 in den Vordergrund gerückt und anhand der thematischen und figurativen Ebene des literarischen Textes diskutiert werden. Lediglich in Ian Weddes Beitrag ,,Walking the Dog“ in dem Sammelband Knowing Animals findet sich ein knapper Hinweis auf eine Passage in Venus im Pelz, die die Faszination des männlichen <?page nr="170"?>Masochisten mit dem Akt des Fuß- und Stiefelleckens in der masochistischen Urszene als ,,hündisch“ bezeichnet.9 Dieser thematischen Assoziation der literarischen Rede über Tiere und Tierliches möchte ich in diesem Beitrag auf den Grund gehen aus einer Perspektive, die den Cultural and Literary Animal Studies verpflichtet ist und den literarischen Text rekontextualisiert. Statt der naheliegenden Historisierung und Kontextualisierung der Novelle im zeitgenössischen literarischen Umfeld oder der zeitgenössischen Diskussion des psychologischen Masochismus um die Jahrhundertwende sollen stattdessen die natürlichen Objekte, besonders die Tiere, aber auch die Umwelt in einem umfassenderen Sinn sowie die Rede über sie in den Vordergrund gerückt werden. Damit wird deutlich, wie eng die literarische Imaginierung von Tieren sich aus einem ganz bestimmten Wissen über Natur speist und wie diese zwei Ebenen sich gegenseitig befruchten oder punktuell kritisch beleuchten. Der literarische Text stellt dieses zeitgenössische Naturwissen aus. Gleichzeitig ist der literarische Text aber auch geprägt von dem zeitgenössischen Naturwissen, das wiederum nicht unbeeinflusst ist von den tatsächlichen Tieren und der natürlichen Umwelt.

"Obsessive Neurosis in the Sigmund Freud Approach." International Journal of Psychiatry 4, no. 1 (March 30, 2019). http://dx.doi.org/10.33140/ijp.04.01.4.
Full textAbstract:
Obsessive neurosis manifests itself through conjuration rites, obsessing symptoms, and permanent mental rumination, in which scruples and doubts interfere with action. It was the French psychiatrist Jules Falret (1824-1902) who used the term obsession to highlight the fact that the subject is affected by pathological ideas and a guilt that obsesses and persecutes him, to the point of being pejoratively compared to a living dead. The term obsession was translated into German by Richard Von Krafft Ebing, who made the choice to use the word Zwangsneurose, which refers to an idea of coercion and compulsion, in which the subject is obliged to act and think against his will. But it was Freud who had the merit of conferring a theoretical and unpublished content on the old obsession clinic [1].

The Danish lawyer and public official Poul Georg Andræ (1843-1928) was born intoan affluent officer family, where his father, C.C.G. Andræ came to play a central politicalrole after the abolition of the absolute monarchy both as a minister and governmenthead. It was obvious that Poul and the younger brother Victor Andræ wouldstudy, and after they had become lawyers from the University of Copenhagen in themiddle of the 1860s, they were employed as public officials in the central administration.They were both unmarried, and with regards to Poul Andræ, it was clear to himearly on that his feelings and sexuality were only directed towards men. Throughsurviving diaries and a number of the letters that he wrote and received, we canfollow his struggle against his ”unfortunate love” as he called it quite closely. It tookplace through an ongoing dialogue with Danish doctors and psychiatrists, who in the1870s and 1880s were more or less at a loss to understand these new phenomena. In1891, Andræ travelled to Vienna to consult with the leading psychiatrist and sexologistof the time, Richard von Krafft-Ebing, and although he was not able to offer himany treatment, he confirmed him to have been born contrasexual, in other words awoman in a man’s body, and in this way took away some of Andræ’s deep feelings ofguilt.In 1889, Poul Andræ applied for and received the position as county administratorin the small market town of Skanderborg in Jutland, but he soon regretted itbitterly. It was mainly to certify that he absolutely had to live in a large city that hesought out Krafft-Ebing two years later. With this certificate in hand, he resigned in1894 and moved back to Copenhagen, where he lived until his death at the age of84. Throughout his entire life he continued to struggle for sexual information andsexual equality; in particular, he became involved with the Wissenschaftlich HumanitarianCommittee, which was founded in 1897, and in his will he left considerablefunds to both the committee and to a number of books in Danish.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Scientific ideologies swirl throughout Stoker’s two most gothic novels, Dracula (1897) and The Lair of the White Worm (1911), and this essay will address those ideologies as literary manifestations of just some of the “weird science” that was permeating late-nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century Europe. Specifically, the essay examines racial theories, physiognomy, criminology, brain science, and sexology as they appear in Stoker’s two novels. Stoker owned a copy Johann Caspar Lavater’s five-volume edition of Essays on Physiognomy (1789), and declared himself to be a “believer of the science” of physiognomy. The second major “weird science” infecting the gothic works of Stoker is the new field of criminology, or the bourgeois attempt to codify, control, and exterminate criminal elements in the human population. Stoker drew on both Havelock Ellis’s The Criminal, published in 1890, and the Italian Cesare Lombroso’s work, Uomo Delinquente (1876), a book that was available to Stoker in a two volume French translation published as L’Homme Criminel (1895). Stoker derived a number of his passages about the workings of the brain from the theories of the well-known professor of physiology, W. B. Carpenter, founder of the notion of “unconscious cerebration,” a concept developed in his book Principles of Mental Physiology (1874). Finally, Richard von Krafft-Ebing published his pioneering text on sexuality in 1886, Psychopathia Sexualis, with Special Reference to Contrary Sexual Instinct: A Medico-Legal Study, and invented the scientific study of sex. Of a piece with criminology, sexology attempted to categorize and medicalize human behaviors in such a way that all would become clear to the informed and enlightened bourgeois consciousness. As another weirdly scientific effort to “discipline and punish,” sexology sought to transform crime into perversion, and the man or woman suffering from vampiric tendencies became just another case study of sexual deviancy.
