springer.com Heinz Häfner, Wagner F. Gattaz (Eds.) Search for the Causes of Schizophrenia Volume II H. HAFNER and W. F. GATTAZ Between 1891 and 1955, three founders of modern psychiatry, Emil Kraepelin (1856-1926), Karl Jaspers (1883-1969) and Kurt Schneider (1887-1967) lectured at the University of Heidelberg: Kraepelin for 12 years, Jaspers for over 25 years and Schneider for approximately 10 years. During this period they laid the foundations of descriptive psychopathology and modern classification and con• tributed essentially to the development of our current thinking on schizophrenia. In 1986, on the occasion of the 600th anniversary of the University of Heidel• berg, we held a symposium in memory of these three "giants of psychiatry" for which we chose the title "Search for the Causes of Schizophrenia". It was jointly organized by the Central Institute of Mental Health in Mannheim and the Department of Psychiatry of the University of Heidelberg. The intention was to meet one of the 1991, IX, 450 p. 10 illus. major challenges of current psychiatric research, namely the fact that since Kraepelin's masterly description of "Dementia praecox" (1894) and E.

First Rank Symptoms: Concepts and Diagnostic Utility
REVIEW Afr J Psychiatry 2010;13:263-266 First rank symptoms: concepts and diagnostic utility S Saddichha 1, R Kumar 2, S Sur 3, BNP Sinha 4 1National Institute of Mental Health & Neurosciences (NIMHANS), Bangalore, India 2Department of Psychiatry, Central Institute of Psychiatry, India 3Ranchi Institute of Neuropsychiatry and Allied Sciences, India 4University Hospital of North Tees, Cleveland, UK Abstract First Rank Symptoms (FRS) were first defined by Schneider as diagnostic of schizophrenia. Since then, there has been an immense debate on their diagnostic and prognostic utility. This review attempts to understand the concepts of FRS as depicted over the years and the diagnostic and prognostic implications of FRS in mental illnesses including schizophrenia. Review of relevant material showed that there are wide variations in the concepts of FRS which may be classified according to broad and narrow definitions. These variations have also led to the differences in the diagnostic systems currently being used. Although the diagnostic utility of FRS in schizophrenia remains, it is not clearly so with other mental illnesses in which these symptoms may also be observed. In addition there is controversy over the prognostic implications with evidence divided between poor and no influence on outcome. Key words: First rank symptoms; Schizophrenia; Diagnosis; Prognosis Received: 01-07-2009 Accepted: 30-07-2009 Introduction as well as the diagnostic and prognostic implications of FRS in Eliciting first rank symptoms (FRS), giving rise to the mental illnesses including schizophrenia. diagnoses of schizophrenia and related illnesses, forms part of the clinical assessment process.

Defining the Elephant: a History of Psychopathy, 1891-1959
Defining the Elephant: a History of Psychopathy, 1891-1959 Susanna Elizabeth Evelyn Shapland Department of History, Classics and Archaeology Birkbeck, University of London Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, February 2019 1 DECLARATION I confirm that all material presented in this thesis is my own work, except where otherwise indicated. Signed .............................................. 2 ABSTRACT Although ‘psychopath’ is a term which is still in use by psychiatrists, it has come to be used as a way of dismissing individuals as irredeemably ‘bad’, untreatable or unpleasant, both by professionals and the public. This attitude is supported by existing histories of psychopathy that are in fact simply histories of the criminal personality, and rely upon retrofitting the diagnosis to historical examples of criminal or problematic behaviour to support their claims of psychopathy’s universal and timeless nature. This thesis disrupts that narrative. By examining the ways in which the terms psychopath, psychopathy and psychopathic are used in historical context, and how this changed over time, it challenges the idea of psychopathy as a fixed and value-free term, and reveals that there were multiple, competing versions of psychopathy in a history rich with contested meanings and overlapping usage. In analysing discussions of how psychopaths were diagnosed, managed and treated, it shows that the history of psychopathy is marked by a fundamental lack of agreement over the parameters of this ‘wastebasket’ diagnosis, which time and again proved too useful to discard. 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My thanks go first and foremost to my supremely patient supervisor, Joanna Bourke. Her inexhaustible enthusiasm and thought-provoking and perceptive feedback have been inspirational.

El presente artículo propone un recorrido por la historia de la esquizofrenia en el que se describe, en primer lugar, el proceso de fijación del concepto clínico convencional en las obras de Emil Kraepelin, Eugen Bleuler y Kurt Schneider. Posteriormente, y como contrapunto a su caracterización externa u objetiva, se exponen algunas líneas maestras de la reconstrucción de la experiencia esquizofrénica acometida por la psicopatología de inspi- ración fenomenológica. Y, por último, se discuten los principales factores y ámbitos impli- cados en la constitución de la esquizofrenia como un trastorno característicamente moder- no de la subjetividad que destaca por aunar anomalías de la conciencia, la vivencia del cuer- po y la vida social.

Who Was Emil Kraepelin and Why Do We Remember Him 160 Years Later?
TRAMES, 2016, 20(70/65), 4, 317–335 WHO WAS EMIL KRAEPELIN AND WHY DO WE REMEMBER HIM 160 YEARS LATER? Jüri Allik1 and Erki Tammiksaar1,2 1University of Tartu and 2Estonian University of Life Sciences Abstract. In order to commemorate Kraepelin’s 160th birthdate and the 130th year from his first professorship, a conference “Emil Kraepelin 160/130” was held in the same Aula of the University of Tartu where 130 years earlier Kraepelin expressed his views about the relationship between psychiatric illnesses and brain functions. This special issue is composed of talks that were held at the conference. However, papers presented in this special issue are in most cases much more elaborated versions of the presented talks. In this introductory article, we remember some basic facts about Emil Kraepelin’s life and the impact he made in various areas, not only in psychiatry. We also try to create a context into which papers presented in this special issue of Trames can be placed. Keywords: Emil Kraepelin; history of psychiatry and psychology; University of Dorpat/Tartu DOI: 10.3176/tr.2016.4.01 Usually, Emil Wilhelm Magnus Georg Kraepelin (1856–1926) is identified as the founder of modern scientific psychiatry (Decker 2004, Engstrom & Kendler 2015, Healy, Harris, Farquhar, Tschinkel, & Le Noury 2008, Hippius & Mueller 2008, Hoff 1994, Jablensky, Hugler, Voncranach, & Kalinov 1993, Steinberg 2015). However, it took some time to recognize Kraepelin’s other contributions to many other areas such as psychopharmacology (Müller, Fletcher, & Steinberg 2006, Saarma & Vahing 1976, Schmied, Steinberg, & Sykes 2006, Vahing & Mehilane 1990), sleep research (Becker, Steinberg, & Kluge 2016) and psychology (Eysenck & Frith 1977, Steinberg 2015).

Schneider's First-Rank Symptoms As Predictors of Remission in Antipsychotic-Naive First-Episode Psychosis

Objective: German psychiatrist Kurt Schneider proposed the concept of first-rank symptoms (FRS) of schizophrenia in 1959. However, their relevance for diagnosis and prediction of treatment response are still unclear. Most studies have investigated FRS in chronic or medicated patients. The present study sought to evaluate whether FRS predict remission, response, or improvement in functionality in antipsychotic-naive first-episode psychosis. Methods: Follow-up study of 100 patients at first episode of psychosis (FEP), with no previous treatment, assessed at baseline and after 2 months of treatment. The participants were evaluated with the standardized Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and Global Assessment of Functioning (GAF) and for presence of FRS.

Personality Disorders
Personality Disorders Dr M Antonioli, MD Consultant Psychiatrist Why are they important? • Schizophrenia 1% • Bipolar Affective Disorder 1.5% • Major Depressive Disorder 5% • Personality Disorders? Personality (temperament; character). A construct to describe cognitive, emotional and behavioural traits that are peculiar to a particular person. Traits are assumed to be relatively stable and enduring (??). 5 major dimensions (Big Five): Extraversion vs introversion Neuroticism vs emotional stability Open-mindedness vs closed-minded Agreeableness vs antagonism Conscientiousness vs disinhibition A bit of history • The study of human personality or "character" (from the Greek charaktêr, the mark impressed upon a coin) dates back at least to antiquity. In his Characters, Tyrtamus (371-287 B.C.) — nicknamed Theophrastus or "divinely speaking" by his contemporary Aristotle — divided the people of 4th century B.C. Athens into 30 different personality types, including "arrogance," "irony," and "boastfulness." Characters exerted a strong influence on subsequent studies of human personality, such as those of Thomas Overbury (1581-1613) in England and Jean de la Bruyère (1645-1696) in France. • The concept of personality disorder itself is much more recent and tentatively dates back to psychiatrist Philippe Pinel’s 1801 description of manie sans délire, a condition which he characterized as outbursts of rage and violence (manie) in the absence of any symptoms of psychosis, such as delusions and hallucinations (délires). • Across the English Channel, physician JC Prichard (1786-1848) coined the term "moral insanity" in 1835 to refer to a larger group of people who were characterized by "morbid perversion of the natural feelings, affections, inclinations, temper, habits, moral dispositions and natural impulses," but the term, probably considered too broad and non-specific, soon fell into disuse.

Current Status of First Rank Symptoms
Article NIMHANS Journal Current Status of First Rank Symptoms Volume: 09 Issue: 02 July 1991 Page: 59-69 K M R Prasad, - Department of Psychiatry, National Institute of Mental Health & Neuro Sciences, Bangalore 560 029, India Abstract Kurt Schneider's enumeration of certain symptoms of schizophrenias First Rank Symptoms (FRS) heralded a new era of prospective diagnosis into the discipline of psychiatry. His phenomenological approach, heirarchial arrangement of different groups of symptoms were unique. The questions concerning various definitions, clinical boundaries and varying prevalence rates in different studies have been discussed. Recent trends in the conceptualisation of FRS, the possible biological basis and the directions for future research have also been discussed. Key words - First rank symptoms Kurt Schneider ushered into the discipline of psychiatry a new era of prospective diagnosis with a unique approach which was phenomenological i.e., understanding patient's actual and inner world of subjective experience. Schneider stressed that the diagnosis is properly made primarily on the basis of symptoms rather on the course [1]. Schneider enumerated a list of symptoms and arranged empirically into groups of symptoms in an hierarchy of diminishing discriminating value. In cases of functional mental illness, first rank symptoms (FRS) received the highest diagnostic priority. FRS were more important than the second rank symptoms like feelings of emotional impoverishments, delusions and other psychotic features. But these were more important than third-rank symptoms which are abnormal modes of expression and behaviour. Schneider did point out that schizophrenia could also be diagnosed exclusively on the basis of second rank symptoms when otherwise typical clinical picture was present [2].
