Not illustrated. 1913 edition. Excerpt: ... LECTURE V CONVULSIVE ATTACKS, FITS OF SLEEP, ARTIFICIAL SOMNAMBULISMS A great number of convulsive attacks and of fits of sleep are nothing but imperfect somnambulisms -- The association of ideas in the hysterogenic points -- The diagnosis of hysterical and epileptical fits-- The crisis of emotional manifestation-- The different fits of sleep, the lethargies -- The perseverance of thought during this sleep, the crisis of revery -- The artificial reproduction of hysteric accidents, of attacks, of fits of sleep -- Artificial somnambulism or hypnotism -- The hypnogenic points -- The hypnotic state as a reproduction of hysteric somnambulism All the preceding examples -- the study of monoideic and polyideic somnambulisms, the study of fugues and of double existences -- showed you the considerable importance assumed by somnambulisms in hysteric neurosis. We should still have many forms of the same phenomenon to consider. But to-day I wish only to dwell on certain elementary and, in some manner, degraded forms of somnambulism, because they are common, because they are to be met with every day, and because it is necessary, in order to understand them, to be able to connect them with the more typical s: nnambulism, of which they are only inferior forms. You will understand the interest of this study, if you notice / that it first applies to two phenomena very important in practice, -- convulsive attacks and fits of sleep. I hasten to tell you that I do not vaguely connect all hysteric attacks and all fits of sleep with phenomena of somnambulism. The words "attack" and "sleep" are vague words, borrowed rather from the vulgar than from scientific language, and very varied phenomena are ranged under them. You will soon see, on the occasion...We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
