Psychosomatic Disorders in Seventeenth-Century French Literature
In this innovative and ambitious study, Bernadette Höfer explores how Surin, Molière, Lafayette, and Racine reverse the Cartesian conception of the dominance of the rational and propose instead a dramatic interconnection of body and mind. The author analyzes early modern medical and philosophical treatises, as well as contemporary medical compilations, to demonstrate that these seventeenth-century French writers fully anticipated current thought regarding psychosomatic illness.
