    Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The Cambridge Platonists were defenders of tolerance in the political as well as the moral sphere ; they held that practical j u d g e m e n t came down in the last instance to individual conscience ; and they laid the foundations of our modern conceptions of conscience and liberty. But at the same time they ma intained the existence of eternal truths , and of a Good-in-itself , identical with Truth and Being, refusing to admit that freedom of conscience i m p li e d moral relativism. They were critics of dogmatism, and of the sectarian notion of 'enthusiasm' as a source of illumination , on the grounds that both were disruptive of social harmony; they pleaded the cause of reason , in the hope that it could become the foundation of all human knowledge . Yet , for all that , they ma intained that a certain sort of mystical illumination lay at the heart of all true thought , and that human reason had validity only in virtue of i t s divine origin . They debated with Des cartes and took a keen interest in his mech- ism and his dualism ; they brought the atomistic theories of Democritus back into repute; and they sought to provide a detailed account of the causality link ing all phenomena.…

WEXBERG (de Vienne en Autriche) : La théorie du "caractère nerveux" selon Alfred Adler - MARIA ROSSI (d'Ancône) : Les réactions médico-légales chez les encéphalitiques - - - - - - - En 1906, dans l'éditorial du premier numéro de L'Encéphale, publié sous la direction d'Antheaume et Klippel, la rédaction s'explique sur « la lourde entreprise de publier un nouveau journal » [1]. « La psychiatrie qui a pris en France, au siècle dernier, un si remarquable essor, s'est développée dans des conditions très particulières. [. . .] La pathologie mentale, par suite de circonstances sur lesquelles il est inutile d'insister, s'est constituée dans une sorte d'isolement, que semblait légitimer le dualisme traditionnel du corps et de l'esprit. » [ L'identification, en 1905, du Treponema pallidum par Fritz Schaudinn et Erich Hoffmann a constitué une avancée considérable dans la compréhension de l'étiopathogénie de la syphilis (les patients souffrant de la paralysie générale étaient soignés dans les asiles d'aliénés). Pour la rédaction de L'Encéphale, cette découverte est une conquête de la neuropathologie qui appelle à « une fusion désirable » entre « les pathologies de l'esprit et celles du corps ». Et de poursuivre : «Aujourd'hui, l'enceinte étroite où s'était laissée momentanément isoler la pathologie mentale est rompue ». En 1906, L'Encéphale publie dans son premier volume des articles originaux : de Sérieux et Capgras (Les symptômes des délires d'interprétation), de Régis (Poésie et paralysie générale et La poésie dans les maladies mentales), de Mlle le Docteur Constance Pascal , souvent considérée comme la première femme psychiatre de France (Les ictus dans la démence précoce et Sur le délire des préjudices préséniles) et des commentaires d'ouvrages et de communications des congrès franc¸ ais et étrangers, des réunions de sociétés savantes qui traduisent la pensée des grands maîtres du temps : Alzheimer, Pick, Abraham, Janet, Dide, Ribot, mais aussi Emil Kraepelin. Keraval relate une opinion développée par le père de la folie maniaco-dépressive : les asiles d'aliénés seraient les lieux privilégiés pour l'observation naturaliste de l'évolution des pathologies mentales, alors que les cliniques (universitaires à l'allemande) seraient plus appropriées pour l'exploration des « causes physiques, somatiques et des manifestations concomitantes de la folie ». La publication de L'Encéphale se poursuit jusqu'en 1940. Interrompue par la seconde guerre mondiale, la publication de L'Encéphale reprend en 1946-1947 sous l'impulsion de Jean Lhermitte et de Jean Delay. Lhermitte signe l'éditorial du premier numéro d'après-guerre.…

Neuware -The Cambridge Platonists were defenders of tolerance in the political as well as the moral sphere ; they held that practical j u d g e m e n t came down in the last instance to individual conscience ; and they laid the foundations of our modern conceptions of conscience and liberty. But at the same time they ma intained the existence of eternal truths , and of a Good-in-itself , identical with Truth and Being, refusing to admit that freedom of conscience i m p li e d moral relativism. They were critics of dogmatism, and of the sectarian notion of 'enthusiasm' as a source of illumination , on the grounds that both were disruptive of social harmony; they pleaded the cause of reason , in the hope that it could become the foundation of all human knowledge . Yet , for all that , they ma intained that a certain sort of mystical illumination lay at the heart of all true thought , and that human reason had validity only in virtue of i t s divine origin . They debated with Des cartes and took a keen interest in his mech- ism and his dualism ; they brought the atomistic theories of Democritus back into repute; and they sought to provide a detailed account of the causality link ing all phenomena.Springer-Verlag KG, Sachsenplatz 4-6, 1201 Wien 276 pp. Englisch.…
