Abstract
Freud’s theories of hysteria are of interest for both the history and the philosophy of psychoanalysis. A critical study of the development of these theories is apt to throw light on Freud’s way of thinking. Since the theories are predominantly clinical, a study of their development can be expected to be relevant also for psychoanalytic practice.
