Best.-Nr. 37323Very Good. Two striking original photographs taken during the filming of Hans Richter's "8 x 8". One of the two photographs is signed in red ink by Philippe Halsman the photographer of both. A note on the back of the signed photo notes that Halsman signed this picture and that the film's cinematographer Arnold Eagle is visible in the background. The photos are mounted on discolored pieces of cardboard. In his original script for the film's prologue Richter wrote: ".my film 8 x 8 is a bizarre comedy-drama signs and sounds not only out of this world probably not even in the next. 8 x 8 mixes equal parts of Freud and Lewis Carroll with Venice Venus and Old Vienna Cocteau and Bullfights surrealism magic dreams girls and practically anything else that may currently be in your minds." Hans Richter undertook 8 x 8 at the suggestion of Marcel Duchamp a chess enthusiast after The Minotaur a planned sequel to the 'Narcissus' episode of Dreams That Money Can Buy failed to secure funding although 8 x 8 engaged similar concerns. 'Chess is so universal' wrote Richter to Jean Cocteau about this new project 'that practically every human situation has its corresponding move among the countless possibilities of chess.' The filmmaker further recognized a kinship between the work which took its title from the layout of a chessboard and Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass. Some of the artists who appeared in this film included Max Ernst Fernand Léger Marcel Duchamp Man Ray and Alexander Calder. The photographs are accompanied by a reprint of an article that was written by Lewis Carroll collectors August and Clare Imholtz for the Fall 2019 issue of "Knight Letter" about the film and its participants along with a discussion of each of the photos. The photos are in very good condition. They measure 10.5 x 13.5 inches. PHOTO/062424. unknown books

"Philippe Pinel's Traité médico-philosophique sur l'aliénation mentale ou la manie which presented the textual foundation of psychiatry stands as the first great publication of the nineteenth century in clinical medicine" Grolier Medicine. "In October 1793 while serving as médecin des infirmeries at Bicêtre Hospital Pinel 1745-1826 had the chains struck off from forty-nine male psychiatric patients in order to substitute for this cruel oppression his 'traitement morale' a humane form of psychiatric therapy that identified insanity with illness rather than moral perversity or demonic possession. This dramatic act performed in the liberating spirit of the American and French Revolutions found immediate and enduring favor in the popular imagination as a symbol of a new attitude toward the insane and ignited a general desire for more humane treatment of the mentally ill that culminated in the English non-restraint movement of the mid-nineteenth century. Yet humanitarian treatment of the insane although crucial to Pinel's psychiatric work was not that work's sole focus for Pinel also devoted himself to establishing psychiatry as a scientifically based branch of medicine. His Traité replaced the speculation and theorizing characteristic of earlier discussions of insanity with his own practical observations of the lunatics of the Bicêtre whose illnesses could now be observed undistorted by cruel treatment. He retained the old classifications of mental illness stating that contemporary medicine was as yet too primitive for more precise categories but did introduce some subdivisions isolating mania from delirium and recognizing the relationships between periodic mania melancholy and hypochondria. He recognized emotional disorders to be the main cause of intellectual dysfunction but also took into account heredity predisposition and hypersensitivity and attempted to find relationships between insanity and cranial deformity" Norman Library.
