Eighteenth-and early nineteenth-century medical writers considered hypochondria a physical disease with mental and emotional components. Medical and literary writers used the disease metaphorically to pathologize nonnormative behaviors, thereby promoting a moral agenda under the guise of inoculating their readers against disease. Anton Reiser is, however, quite innovative in its depiction of this disease. Despite contemporary medical writers' concerns about nonnormative gender roles and sexual behaviors and their relation to hypochondria, Anton's intense, emotional, same-sex friendships do not seem to contribute to his disease in the novel. Instead, the intense male friendships that he cultivates are based on homoerotic desire, but they are not pathologized. Though not depicted as curative, they are shown in a positive light. This article provides a detailed close reading of hypochondria in the novel and reads Moritz's text against the background of contemporary medical discourses on hypochondria and modern criticism on the novel.","PeriodicalId":385309,"journal":{"name":"Goethe Yearbook","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128773179","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As the relationship of these scenes to the rest of the novel has proved enigmatic, I read them in conjunction with Goethe's Regeln für Schauspieler (Rules for Actors) as well as the aesthetic categories of absorption and theatricality from Michael Fried's work of the same name. Since tableaux vivants present a unique theatrical mode that maintains absolute stillness, I claim that it is the theme of movement that attests to their significance. Luciane's tableaux vivants scene is revealed to be an augmented form of actor discipline to restrain her disorderly and unpredictable personality. For Ottilie, the tableaux vivants scene demonstrates how restraining movement is implicated in the established societal norms for behavior.","PeriodicalId":385309,"journal":{"name":"Goethe Yearbook","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121879572","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
