Abstract

Joseph Ennemoser (1787-1854) was born in Tyrol and, after fighting in the Tyrolean rebellion and the Napoleonic wars, qualified as a physician in Berlin. He later became professor at the recently founded University of Bonn, and eventually opened a successful medical practice in Munich. Ennemoser was a leading figure in the then highly fashionable field of 'animal magnetism' (popularised by Mesmer in the later 18th century) and hypnosis, and his emphasis on the connection between the mind and physical health foreshadowed Freud's development of psychoanalysis. In this 1842 publication, Ennemoser analyses the relationship between 'animal magnetism', nature and religion, focusing on phenomena including visions, their physiological and psychological explanations, and the application and effects of 'magnetic' treatments.

Abstract

Si articles et livres abondent en descriptions sur la manière de provoquer l'état hypnotique ou sur celle de l'utiliser en vue de la sédation de symptômes, quand il s'agit de s'expliquer sur la nature du phénomène lui-même, l'encre vient à manquer aux plumes. Milton H. Erickson, qui a contribué à rendre à l'hypnose la place qu'elle méritait, s'est toujours refusé à lui donner un statut théorique. Il peut sembler que la pratique, pour être agissante, puisse se passer d'être pensée, mais ce n'est pas si sûr. Manquant d'un index pour lui permettre de distinguer l'essentiel de l'accessoire, cette pratique risque de se dégrader. Elle ne sait pas dire pourquoi elle est efficace et pourquoi elle ne l'est pas. Dans son Encyclopédie des sciences philosophiques, Hegel parle du magnétisme animal au début de la troisième partie intitulée " Philosophie de l'esprit ". Ces pages, traduites et commentées par François Roustang, pourraient peut-être éclairer la pratique de l'hypnose.

Abstract

Chauncy Hare Townshend (1798-1868), poet and collector, was a well-connected friend of Robert Southey and Charles Dickens. He became fascinated with Mesmerism while in Germany and went on to popularise it in England. This book, first published in 1840, was his passionate defence of Mesmerism. Developed in the late eighteenth century by Franz Mesmer, Mesmerism was a kind of hypnosis based on the theory of animal magnetism. With its spiritual associations and uncanny effects, it was an extremely controversial topic in the nineteenth century and its practitioners were widely considered fraudsters. Townshend describes in detail the mental states Mesmerism induces, which he identifies as similar to a state of sleepwalking. Perhaps most fascinating are the eye-witness accounts describing experiments carried out by Townshend on the continent, in which he hypnotised his subjects into feeling his own sensations and knowing things they could not know.
