To belong to it was canonization. Though some of its members also belonged to the Toddletopsis Club, it meant their leading a double life. The Restless Sexteen were mostly young married women with their husbands as nonresident members. They studied higher psychology and broader psychopathy. The wrestled with and threw Einstein and let themselves dream again with Freud.
This is a subject which can hardly be touched in passing: yet the opinion may be recorded that it belongs rather to the science of psychopathy than to the chronicle of vulgar lusts. English poets have given us the right key to the Italian temperament, on this as on so many other points.
In that judgment the local historian from whose unpublished work these facts are compiled had the thoughtfulness to signify his concurrence. Of two men who were talking one was a physician. "I sent for you, Doctor," said the other, "but I don't think you can do me any good. May be you can recommend a specialist in psychopathy. I fancy I'm a bit loony." "You look all right," the physician said.
The only way of explaining his eccentric thirst for slaughter is to suppose that it was a dark monomania, a form of psychopathy analogous to that which we find in the Maréchal de Retz and the Marquise de Brinvilliers. One of the most marked symptoms of this disease was the curiosity which led him to explore the entrails of his victims, and to feast his eyes upon their quivering hearts.
"I laugh," he answered. "It is a ease of contagious, mystic psychopathy! But you must excuse me now, for I am due at Subiaco at eight o'clock. I hope you will enjoy yourselves. May your visit divert you," With this malicious thrust, he shook the reins on the mule's neck, and rode on, fearing he might be obliged to give proofs of what he asserted.
"You see when I began I didn't know anything about Christian Science, the new science of mental healing, faith-cure, psychopathy, by which you act on the spirit and through the spirit upon the body. Matter is subject to mind. Matter is unreal. All merely physical treatment of disease is on the mortal plane."
But your Christian psychopathists bring a lot of talk about a science, and they don't seem to know just whether God is working the miracle or they are doing it by magnetism, or mind-cure, or psychopathy, or whether the disease isn't a sort of plaguey humbug anyhow, and the patient a fool who has to be undeceived."
The so-called "mania of doubt" is one of the most frequent phases in the degenerative forms of psychopathy, and sometimes precedes certain obsessions, which urge the sufferer on irresistibly to the commission of immoral or harmful acts.
In this form, the political, economic and moral opinions of Jesus, as guides to conduct, are interesting and important: the rest is mere psychopathy and superstition. The accounts of the resurrection, the parthenogenetic birth, and the more incredible miracles are rejected as inventions; and such episodes as the conversation with the devil are classed with similar conversations recorded of St.
Reading my Figaro the other day as I hope I need not state it is my custom devoutly to do I came upon the following passage in the review of a book called "Psychopathy; or, the True Healing Art. By Joseph Ashman. London: Burns, Southampton Row. We have not the pleasure of being personally acquainted with Joseph Ashman, and we fear that the loss is ours.
