This book is based on a congress evaluating Jaspers' basic
psychopathological concepts and their anthropological roots in
light of modern research paradigms. It provides a definition of
delusion, his concept of "limit situation" so much challenged by
trauma research, and his methodological debate. We are approaching
the anniversary of Jaspers seminal work General Psychopathology in
1913. The Centre of Psychosocial Medicine of the University with
its Psychiatric Hospital where Jaspers wrote this influential
volume as a 29 year old clinical assistant hosted a number of
international experts familiar with his psychiatric and
philosophical work. This fruitful interdisciplinary discussion
seems particularly important in light of the renewed interest in
Jaspers' work, which will presumably increase towards the
anniversary year 2013. This volume is unique in bringing together
the knowledge of leading international scholars and combining three
dimensions of investigation that are necessary to understand
Jaspers in light of contemporary questions: history (section I),
methodology (section II) and application (section III).
