This collection tells the story of the case study genre at a time
when it became the genre par excellence for discussing human
sexuality across the humanities and life sciences.It is a
transcontinental journey from the imperial world of fin-de-siecle
Central Europe to the interwar metropolises of Weimar Germany and
to the United States of America in the post-war years.
Foregrounding the figures of case study pioneers, and highlighting
their often radical engagements with the genre, the book
scrutinises the case writing practices of Sigmund Freud and his
predecessor sexologist Richard von Krafft-Ebing; writers including
Leopold von Sacher-Masoch and Alfred Doeblin; Weimar intellectuals
such as Erich Wulffen and psychoanalyst Viola Bernard. The results
are important new insights into the continuing legacy of such
writers and into the agency increasingly claimed by the readerships
that emerged with the development of modernity. -- .
