Abstract
Cruella De Vil, the iconic character from Dodie Smith's novel The Hundred and One Dalmatians, was traditionally viewed through a psychodynamic lens as a figure embodying narcissistic personality disorder, psychosis and mania. In this article, we propose an alternative hypothesis that her erratic behaviour and distinctive physical appearance may be attributed to a chronic systemic condition.
克鲁拉-德-维尔（Cruella De Vil）是多迪-史密斯（Dodie Smith）小说《一百零一只斑点狗》（The Hundred and One Dalmatians）中的标志性人物，传统上人们从心理动力学的角度将她视为自恋型人格障碍、精神病和狂躁症的代表人物。在本文中，我们提出了另一种假设，即她反复无常的行为和与众不同的外貌可能归因于一种慢性系统性疾病。
