Joseph Ennemoser (1787 1854) was an Tyrolean doctor and scientist,
noted for his use of magnetism and hypnosis. He was a forerunner of
Freud in his belief in the connection between the mind and physical
health, and his interest in psychology led to investigations into
the paranormal and magic. He became well known for his
presentations about magic, delusions and apparently supernatural
occurrences. He suggested that most of these phenomena appeared
miraculous only because of a lack of understanding of the laws of
nature. The History of Magic was published in Leipzig in 1844, and
translated into English in 1854 by William Howitt, a leading
Spiritualist writer. Volume 1 deals with the different categories
of magic and mysticism, and how they were viewed in ancient times.
He discusses visions, dreams and soothsaying, and miracles in the
Bible, and the link between classical medicine and oracles.
