JANET, Pierre (1859-1947). L'automatisme psychologique. Essai de psychologie exprimentale sur les formes infrieures de l'activit humaine . 1889. Contemporary half blue morocco and marbled boards (shelf wear, some foxing). "Janet's doctoral thesis, based on a series of studies of hysterical patients...Janet argues that hysterical symptoms are due to subconscious fixed ideas that have been isolated and usually forgotten...This predated Breuer and Freud's announcement of their virtually identical discovery by four years...it would take the work of Freud to eventually convince the scientific world of its efficacy" (Norman). Garrison-Morton 4976.1. -- tat mental des hystriques: Les accidents mentaux . 1894. Original limp black sheep, gilt-lettered (worn, library stamp on title-page). PRESENTATION COPY, inscribed by Janet to the neurophysiologist Charles Emil Franois-Franck (1849-1921). "...the work of Janet was fundamental to the establishment of psychology as a discipline. He originated several key psychiatric concepts, and his work directly inspired both Jung's concepts of introversion and extroversion and Adler's theory of compensation." (Norman) -- Nvroses et ides fixes . 1898. 2 volumes. Original green printed wrappers, unopened (spines a little chipped at ends). Written with Fulgence Raymond. PRESENTATION COPY, inscribed by Janet to the physiologist and allergist Charles Robert Richet (1850-1935). In this and the following work Janet "developed a classification of the neuroses, together with an integrative theory which encompassed both hysteria and psychasthenia. These two works introduced, for the first time, terms and concepts such as 'dissociation' and 'narrowing of the field of consciousness,' which are now in general use" ( Oxford Companion to the Mind , p. 398). -- Les obsessions et la psychasthnie . 1903. 2 volumes.
