The Schreber Case 史瑞伯案例 Daniel Paul Schreber was a distinguished jurist who was born in 1842 and had a distinguished political career. He stood as a candidate for the Reichstag in the autumn of 1884, and quite soon after that was hospitalized for the first time. He was discharged in June of the following year and took up an appointment in the Leipzig Landgericht in 1886. He was able to carry on his official duties and functioned quite adequately until 1893, when he received an appointment to the court of appeals and was appointed the presiding judge in October of that year. In the following November, he was readmitted to the hospital and subsequently transferred to the Lindenhof Asylum, and soon after that back to Sonnenstein where he had originally been. He remained in the hospital for these years and wrote the Memoirs(Schreber,1955) in the years of 1900-1902 and finally took legal action for his discharge from the hospital. The judgment was rendered in July of 1902, and he was discharged in the following December. The Memoirs were finally published in 1903. The Memoirs are an unusual document and provide an extraordinary opportunity for studying the content and thought processes of a paranoid psychosis. It wasn't until 1910, however, that the Memoirs came to Freud's attention and his analysis of the case was published in 1911 just after the death of Schreber(Freud,1911). 丹尼尔·保罗·史瑞伯是一位杰出的法学家,出生于1842年,有着杰出的政治生涯。1884年秋,他作为国会议员候选人参选,此后不久,他第一次住院。第二年6月,他被解职,并于1886年在莱比锡市政府任职。他能够执行他的公务,并且运转得相当好,直到1893年,他被任命为上诉法院法官,并于同年10月被任命为首席法官。次年11月,他被重新入院,随后被转到林登霍夫精神病院,不久又回到了他原来所在的索南斯坦。他在医院住了几年,并在1900-1902年期间写了《回忆录》(Schreber,1955),最后为出院采取了法律行动。1902年7月作出判决,次年12月他被解雇。《回忆录》最终于1903年出版。《回忆录》是一份不同寻常的文件,为研究偏执型精神病的内容和思维过程提供了一个非凡的机会。然而,直到1910年,《回忆录》才引起了弗洛伊德的注意。1911年,就在史瑞伯去世后不久,他发表了对此案的分析。
