Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Hallucinations: A History and Explanation of Apparitions, Visions, Dreams, Ecstasy, Magnetism, and Somnambulism At all epochs in the history of man, in every climate, under the most opposite forms of government, and with every variety of religion, we constantly find the same belief in spirits and apparitions. The source of an opinion so universal must evidently be sought for in the mental constitution of man, where there predominates an irresistible craving after the unknown, and a belief in the supernatural, which manifests itself in the multitude by a love of the marvellous. The savage who dreams of the Great Spirit, and of boundless hunting-grounds in a future life; the Arab who wanders in the enchanted palaces of the Thousand and One Nights; the Indian who loses himself in the incarnations of Brama; the inhabitant of the civilized world who professes to believe nothing, yet secretly consults the fortune-teller, or demands from magnetism what it cannot afford him; all obey the same want - that of believing something. At first, it seems astonishing that such opinions should have obtained so much influence, and one is tempted to ask, if man is a compound of errors, or the sport of illusions; but a deeper investigation of the question will convince us that these opinions are only deviations from the religious sentiment. History and tradition alike inform us that man came forth pure, but free, from the hands of his Creator. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hallucinations: Or the Rational History of Apparitions, Visions, Dreams, Ecstasy, Magnetism, and Somnambulism The highly interesting subjects discussed in this volume, written by a very distinguished French physician, have seemed to demand a careful translation, in order that its usefulness may be more generally diffused. One of the principal propositions which the talented author has undertaken to prove is, that hallucination is not a necessary accompaniment or symptom of insanity, but that in certain cases it may be considered as a purely physiological phenomenon. He insists on the necessity of establishing an intimate union between philosophy and medicine; especially in the treatment of mental diseases. "Psychological facts," he argues, "cannot be placed on the same line with sensible facts. The brain may be the seat, but is not the creator of intellectual operations. Ideas pre-exist their sensible signs." "Does not," he argues, "the analysis of different kinds of delirium afford a solid and experimental basis to metaphysics? And is not the study of mysticism indispensable for the correct appreciation of mental alienation?" M. Brierre de Boismont treats the important and hitherto neglected subject of hallucination in various points of view, inasmuch as it bears important relations to philosophy, medicine, religion, history, morality, and jurisprudence. The apparitions of Holy Writ are handled with the reverence befitting a Christian, whilst much light is thrown on the probable origin of the hallucinations of many celebrated personages whose characters and actions were so exalted as to place them apparently above humanity. The book will offer attractions to many classes of readers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A philosophical physician said, in speaking of the first edition of this work: "If the author had been satisfied to treat the vast question of hallucinations as medical men usually treat a question of pathology, the medical press would have announced his monograph according to custom, with simple praises and very inoffensive criticisms; medical science would have numbered one more good work, and so the matter would have ended. But such has not been the case. M. Brierre de Boismont, in giving a less scholastic turn to his treatise, and introducing questions of historic psychology, has succeeded in electrifying both the press and the public. Thence have arisen those warm eulogies which have appeared in excellent journals, unconnected with medicine; thence those keen, but polite criticisms which have been impartially received in a scientific magazine. It appears to me that this is a great triumph. It is no easy matter to make the chords of contemporary criticism, in general so slack, thus vibrate. The success is still greater, if a similar result has been obtained in defending the cause of truth and common sense""--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2009 APA, all rights reserved).
