Henri Ey

Henri Ey, sometimes Henry Ey, ( born August 10, 1900 in Banyuls -dels- Aspres, Département Pyrénées Orientales, † November 8, 1977 ) was a French psychiatrist.

Life

Henri Ey worked as a doctor of neurology and psychiatry at the Paris hospital Centre Hospitalier Sainte -Anne in Paris's 14th arrondissement, where he was a student of Henri Claude ( 1869-1945 ) and colleague of Jacques Lacan ( 1901-1981 ) in the 1930s. Henri Ey took over the design of the Psychodynamismus by his teacher Claude. Regarding the attitude of France towards Freud and psychoanalysis, he took a similar position with Jacques Lacan. Also, he studied the works of Eugen Bleuler. He took over the management of the psychiatric hospital of Bonneval in the Beauce. There he conducted seminars to which psychoanalysts, psychiatrists and philosophers of various currents gathered.

Services

Henri Ey developed in 1936, the organo- dynamic theory and sat down with it for the combination of neurology and psychiatry, ie for the synopsis of organic and psychological aspects of a. Psychoanalysis should only use this to take the legacy of psychiatry, as he looked at her as a branch of a dynamic psychiatry, as it had already been formed independently of Freud in France, see the French vitalism and the school of Montpellier. From 1945 he was editor of the journal L' évolution psychiatrique, in which he gave his views on a humanistic psychiatry expression. In 1950 he founded the Association mondiale de psychiatrie. Contrary to his intention, this sat but by a typical U.S. organization of the WPA, a behavioral description for the classification of psychiatric diseases preferred waiving dynamic aspects.

This development trend under the influence of American psychiatric organizations also regrets Stavros Mentzos. He emphasizes the importance of psychodynamic perspective in terms of triggering pathogenic disease moments by presenting recalling Henri Ey the discussion opposite views on the various concepts of defense versus defect.
