Abstract

This article analyses the origins and formation of medical and social discourses on neurosis in colonial Korea. With the introduction of Western medicine after the Opening of Korea in 1876, neurasthenia and hysteria began to be understood as neurotic diseases, and their importance was further highlighted during the colonial period of 1910-45. The article also addresses the role of neuropsychiatry in forming discourses on neurosis. In medical communities during the colonial period, the main source of these discourses gradually shifted from internal medicine to neuropsychiatry. In particular, Korean neuropsychiatrists distinguished between neurosis and psychosis as a way to reinforce their authority. Neuropsychiatrists tried to explain the temperamental and environmental factors of neurosis from a psychoanalytic standpoint.

辨析神经症与精神病:殖民时期朝鲜的神经症论述。
本文分析了朝鲜殖民时期关于神经症的医学和社会话语的起源和形成。1876年开窍后,随着西医的传入,神经衰弱和癔病开始被理解为神经性疾病,1910- 1945年殖民时期,其重要性进一步凸显。文章还讨论了神经精神病学在形成神经症论述中的作用。在殖民时期的医学界,这些话语的主要来源逐渐从内科转向神经精神病学。特别是,国内的精神科医生为了加强权威,将神经症和精神病区分开来。神经精神病学家试图从精神分析的角度解释神经症的气质和环境因素。
