The article reviews and analyzes Sante De Sanctis’ - an illustrious psychologist, psychiatrist and founder of the discipline of psychology in Italy - research on dream. The analysis of his study of dreams demonstrates how De Sanctis was the only Italian scholar to have broadened the experimental paradigm of Wundtian psychology using an original pluralistic method integrated with a theoretical perspective based on the study of the psychophysical reality of individuals in their totality. De Sanctis’ scientific work on dreams, documented in important national and international articles and monographs published in the 18th and 19th century, appears to exemplify his modern conceptualization of clinical-differential psychological research.

  • Appendix: Goodbye to Hebephrenia
    Appendix: Goodbye to Hebephrenia Despite the complex regional variance that is visible throughout the history of schizophrenia’s classification, we tend to also find classi- fiers continuously returned to archetypal ‘foundational’ schizophrenia subtypes such as hebephrenia . As such, for much of the first half of the twentieth century hebephrenia was fairly easy to find in asylums and their records, unlike catatonia . Yet although hebephrenia was more visible than catatonia, and although it held sway in much of official classification, the history of twentieth-century conceptualisation of schizophrenia reveals a growing lack of confidence in even this core concept. Possibly, its demise has its roots in comments made by Bleuler in 1924, when he admitted that hebephrenia ‘now constitutes the big trough into which are thrown the forms that cannot be classed with the other forms’ (1916/1924, p. 426). It may also have had its demise in changing asylum conditions, for by 1945 we can find that Rapaport would argue that hebephrenia, like catatonia, was now becoming increasingly rare. It perhaps only represented cases who had become deteriorated and that ‘in general relatives do not bring hopeless cases to our hospital’ (Rapaport, 1945, p. 19). [The reference to patients not being bought to the hospital possibly also reflects a growing public disil- lusionment with treatment, or distaste for lobotomy, which would see its usage begin to decline by 1948, prior to the introduction of chlor- promazine (Gelman, 1999).] Rapaport, as such, found room in his study for ‘chronic unclassified schizophrenia’, ‘coarctated preschizophrenia’ (marked anxiety, blocking, withdrawal, sexual preoccupation, feeling of strangeness, incompetence, extreme inhibition of affect), ‘over- ideational preschizophrenia’ (obsessions, wealth of fantasy, introspec- tion, self-obsession, and preoccupation with own body), deteriorated paranoid schizophrenia, and so forth.

  • TEN YEARS of ITALIAN HISTORIOGRAPHY of PSYCHOLOGY: a Field in Progress
    History of Psychology © 2010 American Psychological Association 2010, Vol. 13, No. 3, 215–249 1093-4510/10/$12.00 DOI: 10.1037/a0020093 TEN YEARS OF ITALIAN HISTORIOGRAPHY OF PSYCHOLOGY: A Field in Progress Glauco Ceccarelli Guido Cimino and Renato Foschi University of Urbino “Sapienza” University of Rome This article briefly outlines a picture of the activities and research conducted in Italy on the history of psychology during the last 10 years, focusing its attention on institutions, scholars, conferences, archives, journals, and so forth. At the dawn of the 21st century, the tradition of historical-psychological studies that developed in the last quarter of the 20th century has led to a renewed situation in teaching organization and research, with the emergence of several groups, especially at the universities of Rome “Sapienza,” Bari, Milan-Bicocca, and Urbino, and of a second generation of young historians increasingly engaged on an international level. After a general survey conducted with historiometric method on the principal areas of research cultivated and on the themes dealt with, we mention a change that has occurred in the historiographical approach, a transition from a historiography addressed prevalently to the “history of ideas” to one that, pursuing the approach of a new and critical “multifactorial” history, proves to be more attentive to the social and institutional history, in correspondence with established international trends. Keywords: Italian historiography of psychology, historiometry, old history, new history, multifactorial history An article published in this same journal in 2003 traced the itinerary of the historiography of psychology in Italy from the 1970s up to the threshold of the 21st century (Cimino & Dazzi, 2003).

  • Historiographic Categories in the History of Italian Psychology. Sante De Sanctis Between Psychiatry and Psychology
    Historiographic categories in the history of Italian psychology. Sante De Sanctis between psychiatry and psychology. by Giovanni Pietro Lombardo* ABSTRACT - Sante De Sanctis, psychologist and psychiatrist, is one of the most representative figures in Italian scientific psychology. Considered among the founders of the discipline and one of its main protagonists in the inter-war period, in the massive bulk of his scientific writings (more than three hundred works of general psychology, psychopathology, pedagogic psychology, criminal psychology and infantile neuropsychiatry) and in his uninterrupted institutional activity, he left a tangible mark on the history of psychology in our country. In 1901 he obtained the Psychology professorship at the Philosophy Faculty in Rome, and a few years later was appointed to the first chair in Experimental Psychology at the University of Rome. At an international level, De Sanctis is the best known among Italian psychologists: some of his work has appeared in French, Swiss, American, German, Scandinavian and English journals and several books have been translated into English and German. He is the only Italian along with other second generation psychologists (Binet, Külpe, Münsterberg, Stern, Claparède, Ebbinghaus) to integrate the classical paradigm of Wundtian physiological psychology, in an attempt at the methodological and epistemological expansion of the discipline. The aim of this paper is therefore to bring out the originality of his clinical-differential experimentalism which in the 1900s founded the psychology discipline, which with De Sanctis proved capable of “dialoging” with the main representatives of the variegated Italian scientific, cultural and academic world, consisting mainly of physiologists, psychiatrists, anthropologists, criminologists, biologists, philosophers, many of whom had a neo-Kantian training, and pedagogists.

The aim of this paper is to analyze the western tradition of studying oneirocriticism: the book of interpretation of dreams, clés des songes. The authors have chosen to use the “longue durée” approach in their study of the history of dream interpretation (“longue durée” is an expression used by the French Annales School of historical writing to designate their approach to the study of history, which gives priority to long- term historical structures over events). This approach involves analyzing human dreams from case studies according to the intellectual, social, and historical contexts. Carroy and Lancel follow Edited by: the same approach used by Pick and Roper’s (2004) book, but with a focus on what they called Jennifer Michelle Windt, Monash University, Australia “genre littéraire d’écrit et de pratique bien particulier” (a very particular kind of literary writing and practice) in Western history.

  • The Interpretation of Dreams Sigmund Freud (1900)
    The Interpretation of Dreams Sigmund Freud (1900) PREFACE TO THE THIRD EDITION Wheras there was a space of nine years between the first and second editions of this book, the need of a third edition was apparent when little more than a year had elapsed. I ought to be gratified by this change; but if I was unwilling previously to attribute the neglect of my work to its small value, I cannot take the interest which is now making its appearance as proof of its quality. The advance of scientific knowledge has not left The Interpretation of Dreams untouched. When I wrote this book in 1899 there was as yet no "sexual theory," and the analysis of the more complicated forms of the psychoneuroses was still in its infancy. The interpretation of dreams was intended as an expedient to facilitate the psychological analysis of the neuroses; but since then a profounder understanding of the neuroses has contributed towards the comprehension of the dream. The doctrine of dream-interpretation itself has evolved in a direction which was insufficiently emphasized in the first edition of this book. From my own experience, and the works of Stekel and other writers, [1] I have since learned to appreciate more accurately the significance of symbolism in dreams (or rather, in unconscious thought). In the course of years, a mass of data has accumulated which demands consideration. I have endeavored to deal with these innovations by interpolations in the text and footnotes. If these additions do not always quite adjust themselves to the framework of the treatise, or if the earlier text does not everywhere come up to the standard of our present knowledge, I must beg indulgence for this deficiency, since it is only the result and indication of the increasingly rapid advance of our science.

There were two concepts that stood out in these transnation- ally held discussions; namely moral insanity and later on, psychopathy. Following recent approaches in the cultural and social history of psychiatry, we understand moral insanity and psychopathy as social constructs, which are determined by the evolution in psychiatric knowledge, and also by laws, codes and social norms of particular historical timeframes.
