Abstract
Sigmund Freud's pioneering early work on individuated nerve cells, later termed "neurons," has long been recognized by the history of psychology. Yet, relatively little has been written about the influence of Freud's then mentor, Theodor Meynert, on Freud's 1884-1885 neuroanatomical research, or the monumental conceptual shift embodied in the project itself. Focusing on Freud's 1884 "Die Struktur der Elemente des Nervensytems" (The Structure of the Elements of the Nervous System) as his first true effort to describe individuated nerve cells, this article identifies Meynert as highly influential on Freud's turn to representative schema, further suggesting that Freud's brief foray in clinical neurology at Meynert's clinic aligns with Freud's move from the laboratory to the mind.

西格蒙德-弗洛伊德早期关于单个神经细胞(后被称为 "神经元")的开创性工作早已为心理学史所公认。然而,关于弗洛伊德当时的导师西奥多-梅纳特(Theodor Meynert)对弗洛伊德 1884-1885 年神经解剖学研究的影响,以及该项目本身所体现的巨大概念转变,却鲜有论述。这篇文章以弗洛伊德 1884 年发表的《神经系统要素的结构》(Die Struktur der Elemente des Nervensytems)为重点,认为这是他第一次真正努力描述独立的神经细胞,并指出梅纳特对弗洛伊德转向代表性模式具有重大影响,同时进一步指出,弗洛伊德在梅纳特诊所短暂涉足临床神经学研究与弗洛伊德从实验室走向心灵的过程是一致的。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, 版权所有)。
