Description

Hysteria is a graphic novel account of Sigmund Freud's early career and the development of psychoanalysis. It follows his training in neurological research and medicine, his studies with Jean-Martin Charcot at La Salpêtrière, and the establishment of his therapeutic practice in Vienna.

The book explores Freud's interest in Josef Breuer's "Anna O" case study and his own treatment of hysteria patients, including Fräulein Elisabeth von R. These case studies are presented alongside the original text from Freud and Breuer's co-authored Studies in Hysteria, which marked the birth of psychoanalysis.

With perfectly matching text and illustrations, Hysteria provides an authoritative and visually engaging look at a pivotal moment in the history of psychology.
