The Induced Trance and Mesmer's Early Methods
From The Riddle of Personality by HL Addington Bruce, the piece surveys Franz Anton Mesmer and early animal magnetism. It details public challenges in 1778 Paris, sensational cures in Berlin and Vienna, and the dramatic sessions with mirrors, a circular vat, and a hypnotic rite that showcased the induced trance as a precursor to modern psychotherapy. The account notes suggestion as a root element and the aura of spectacle surrounding Mesmer’s work.
