Memoirs of my Nervous Illness: SCHREBER

Daniel Paul Schreber (July 25, 1842, Leipzig, Germany - April 14, 1911) was a German jurist and writer who became known for describing his own psychotic delusions. In the first known work of its kind, Schreber, upon being committed, decided to write: Memoirs of My Nervous Illness. With his work, Schreber became one of the most complex figures in the history of psychoanalysis. His case became famous after it was analyzed by Freud in his work: The Schreber Case.
