Beyond the Unconscious
Henri F. Ellenberger, the Swiss medical historian, is best remembered today as the author of The Discovery of the Unconscious (1970), a brilliant, encyclopedic study of psychiatric theory and therapy from primitive times to the mid-twentieth century. However, in addition to this well-known work, Ellenberger has written over thirty essays in the history of the mental sciences. This collection unites fourteen of Ellenberger's most interesting and methodologically innovative historical essays, many of which draw on new and rich bodies of primary materials. Several of the articles appear here in English translation for the first time. The essays deal with subjects such as the intellectual origin...

Ethnopsychiatry
What is the relationship between culture and mental health? Is mental illness universal? Are symptoms of mental disorders different across social groups? In the late 1960s these questions gave rise to a groundbreaking series of articles written by the psychiatrist Henri Ellenberger, who would go on to publish The Discovery of the Unconscious: The History and Evolution of Dynamic Psychiatry in 1970. Fifty years later they are presented for the first time in English translation, introduced by historian of science Emmanuel Delille. Ethnopsychiatry explores one of the most controversial subjects in psychiatric research: the role of culture in mental health. In his articles Ellenberger addressed ...

The Discovery Of The Unconscious
This classic work is a monumental, integrated view of man's search for an understanding of the inner reaches of the mind. In an account that is both exhaustive and exciting, the distinguished psychiatrist and author demonstrates the long chain of development—through the exorcists, magnetists, and hypnotists—that led to the fruition of dynamic psychiatry in the psychological systems of Janet, Freud, Adler, and Jung.
Henri F. Ellenberger
Henri Ellenberger, médecin, psychiatre, criminologue, est né en Afrique en 1905. Il a longtemps vécu en France et en Suisse puis il a passé quelques années aux Etats-Unis, à Topeka (Kansas), avant de s'établir au Canada, à la fin des années 1950. Il a enseigné à l'université McGill et à l'université de Montréal. Il est l'auteur de l'oeuvre monumentale mondialement louée, La découverte de l'inconscient (1970), résultat de vingt ans de travail, qui fait l'histoire des différentes interprétations de l'inconscient, depuis les temps les plus reculés jusqu'aux théories psychanalytiques du vingtième siècle. Chercheur irréprochable, il incarne le modèle du savant rigoureux, obstiné, intransigeant avec la vérité des faits. Grâce à ses enquêtes si minutieusement menées, il a ouvert nombre de chemins que les chercheurs ont non seulement empruntés mais encore prolongés pour pénétrer encore plus profondément dans la citadelle du savoir. Cette biographie le suit pas à pas sur trois continents, soucieuse de faire apparaître dans la lumière la plus juste et la plus nuancée la contribution du savant et la nature de l'homme.
