Henri F. Ellenberger (1905-1993) was a French-Canadian psychiatrist and historian of medicine. He is primarily remembered for The Discovery of the Unconscious, his pioneering history of psychiatry, and his collection of essays Beyond the Unconscious. Ellenberger was the recipient of numerous awards, including the Gold Medal of the Beccaria Prize and the Jason A. Hannah Medal of the Royal Society of Canada.
"A major contribution to the literature of dynamic psychiatry and
one that will be a source book and reference volume for many years
to come . . . The author's sensitivity to the spirit of different
historical periods and his familiarity with the lesser as well as
the major figures of each era -- in the domains of arts and letters
as well as science and medicine--is unceasingly impressive."--David
Elkind, Contemporary Psychology
"In all respects a masterly work . . . a book whose richness,
accuracy, and rigor are allied with an exceptional
open-mindedness--containing such a wealth of material that it
cannot possibly be summarized and analyzed in the usual
way."--Louis Bouyer
"With admirable scholarship and brilliantly lucid style, Dr.
Ellenberger has integrated history, interpretation, opinion,
judgement, assessment, and insight."--Preston K. Munter, M.D.
