1 The Laboring Self: Industrial Psychology and Work

2 ID: Grand Hysteria Other Comments regarding Significance:
A term designating an complex form of hysteria as put forth by the French neurologist Jean-Martin Charcot, at the Salpetriere hospital in the 1880s. There were 4 distinct phases or stages that an hysteric would go through, including: tonic rigidity, clownism or dramatic movements, passionate states, and delirium. Charcot emphasized the physical and visual aspects of the disorder, documenting these phases with photography, a scientific and clinical tool in the asylum. The significance of this term was that it stressed the physical aspects of hysteria, and generated debate as to the interaction of suggestion and pathology. Other Comments regarding Significance: Broad influence of Charcot in 1880s (trained Freud) Debates over responsibility in hysteria (Bompard case) Linked religious and pathological views in his assessment of hysteria Could replicate stages with hypnosis—connected hypnosis with pathology
