Hysteri a is a graphic novel account of the first steps, errors and
frustrations of Sigmund Freud's career, which would lead to the
foundation of a revolutionary new clinical therapy: psychoanalysis.
The book traces Freud's early training in neurological research and
medicine; the crucial turning point of his studies with Jean-Martin
Charcot at La Salpetriere; and his establishment of a therapeutic
practice in Vienna. Perfectly matching text and illustrations,
Hysteri recounts Freud's interest in his colleague Josef Breuer's
'Anna O' case study, as well as giving an account of his own case
histories of hysteria, particularly the treatment of Fraulein
Elisabeth von R. The studies brought to life in this authoritative,
beautifully illustrated graphic novel are collected in Freud and
Breuer's co-authored Studies in Hysteria, which marked the birth of
psychoanalysis.
