Abstract

ABSTRACT: Sparse historical sources describe Alfred Adler’s life during World War I, and even fewer sources exist that would provide a thorough understanding of his life in that challenging time. An accidentally found obituary written in 1938 by the Polish Jewish physician Dr. Maksymilian Blassberg in a Polish medical journal unveils some interesting details about Adler’s duty as a military neurologist in the Kraków military hospital in 1917. This article helps fill the gap in understanding the circumstances of Adler’s life at the time. Combined with field letters from Kraków, the article provides a vivid psychobiographical picture of how Adler dealt with wartime circumstances, with fears of being mobilized to the front and the practices of war psychiatry. Many parallels inspire practitioners to think about the dangers and difficulties of today’s Individual Psychologists in Ukraine facing devastating war conditions. The English translation of the obituary is presented here.
作为医生的阿尔弗雷德-阿德勒(以个人回忆为背景):第一次世界大战期间阿德勒的心理自传片段
ABSTRACT: 描述阿尔弗雷德-阿德勒在第一次世界大战期间生活的历史资料很少,而能够全面了解他在那个充满挑战的年代生活的资料就更少了。1938 年,波兰犹太医生马克西米利安-布拉斯伯格博士(Dr. Maksymilian Blassberg)在波兰医学杂志上发表了一篇意外发现的讣告,揭示了 1917 年阿德勒在克拉科夫军医院担任神经科军医时的一些有趣细节。这篇文章有助于填补了解阿德勒当时生活环境的空白。结合来自克拉科夫的战地信件,文章生动地展现了阿德勒如何应对战时环境、被动员到前线的恐惧以及战争精神病学实践的心理传记。许多相似之处启发从业人员思考当今乌克兰个体心理学家在面临毁灭性战争条件时所面临的危险和困难。讣告的英译本在此提供。
