Psychiatry and Schizophrenia in Büchner, Nerval y Goetz

description The term schizophrenia comes from the field of psychiatry. According to French psychiatrists Lemoine and Cyrulnik (2016), this is a questionable concept. Created in 1908 by Swiss psychiatrist Eugen Bleuler (1857-1939), this term means "divided mind." In the field of literature, Todorov (2011) turns to the work of the psychiatrist J. S. Kasanin (who in 1933 implemented the concept “schizoaffective disorder”), to propose the characteristics of the characters in fantasy literature. Deleuze and Guattari (2013) and Fredric Jameson (2012) allude to the term “schizophrenia” to characterize the social and psychological consequences of a historical period. The emotional features of this illness can be observed in three different literary works. To write his novel Lenz (1839), G. Büchner sought inspiration in the biography of an 18th century author who suffered from mental disorders; G. de Nerval is inspired by his own life to create Aurelia (1855) from a fantastic perspective (as proposed by Todorov), and R. Goetz sets Loco (1983) in contemporary life, where the individual suffers from alienation and incomprehension every day. The objective of the following work is to analyze the treatment of schizophrenia in the three novels mentioned above. The German authors (Büchner and Goetz) share a scientific perspective; and Goetz and Nerval, the narrative perspective (polyphonic in the first and individual in the second), and the autobiographical narrative, which arises from the data they provide in their works.

El término esquizofrenia proviene de la psiquiatría. Según los psiquiatras franceses Lemoine y Cyrulnik (2016), este es un concepto cuestionable. Creado en 1908 por el psiquiatra suizo Eugen Bleuler (1857-1939), este término significa “mente dividida”. En el campo de la literatura, Todorov (2011) recurre a la obra del psiquiatra J. S. Kasanin (quien en 1933 implementó el concepto “trastorno esquizoafectivo”) para plantear las características de los personajes de la literatura fantástica. Deleuze y Guattari (2013) y Fredric Jameson (2012) aluden al término “esquizofrenia” para caracterizar las consecuencias sociales y psicológicas de un período histórico. Los rasgos emocionales de esta enfermedad se pueden observar en tres obras literarias diferentes: para escribir su novela Lenz (1839), G. Büchner se basó en la biografía de un autor del siglo XVIII que padecía trastornos mentales; G. de Nerval se inspira en su propia vida para crear Aurelia (1855), desde una perspectiva fantástica (según lo propuesto por Todorov); y R. Goetz inserta la historia de Loco (1983) en la vida contemporánea, donde el individuo sufre cada día la alienación y la incomprensión. El objetivo del siguiente trabajo será analizar el tratamiento de la esquizofrenia en las tres novelas mencionadas anteriormente. Los autores alemanes (Büchner y Goetz) comparten una mirada científica; y Goetz y Nerval, la perspectiva narrativa (polifónica en el primero e individual en el segundo) y la autobiográfica, que surge de los datos que aportan en sus obras.
