Victor Tausk (1879-1919): a theorising on the psychosis of war

Abstract

`titreb Abstract : Victor Tausk (1879-1919): a theorization on war-induced psychoses`/titreb Victor Tausk holds a remarkable position within the psychoanalytic community. His name is associated with his tragic fate, his stormy relationships with Freud and the novelty of his works on psychoses. Thanks to his psychiatric knowledge, he became an uncommon personality of the Vienna Psychoanalytic Society. He started his clinical activity before the 1st World War. Although he did not mention traumatic neurosis in his written works, he took part in the debate on this disorder within the Society. During the war, he was enrolled as a military physician. Building up on his war experience, he wrote on war-induced psychoses while the other psychoanalysts were working on war neurosis. Tauk’s text delineates this clinical entity and brings it into perspective within the traumatic pathology spectrum.
