[Case history and the "unlived life"].

This article shows that case history cannot exclude that widely overlooked element of the past called "unlived life", which causes undoubted effects on the present state and on judgement of the future. Man separates each moment "unlived life" from lived historical reality by renouncing, rejecting, missing and letting slip. Tragedy as well as hope of human life are captured in the dialectic relation of renouncing and missing because man is permanently kept in the suspense, whether the reliefing renounce of today might change to a burdening sick-making missing of tomorrow. Parallels to the communication theory of D. Wyss, and the possibility to get down to the "unlived life" of a patient by using the TAT and the "Würzburg questionnaire" are shown.

[Significance of the medical anthropology work of Dieter Wyss for modern psychiatry and psychotherapy].

In the first part the decrease of the psychopathological research was described and the impact on the practical psychopathology was deplored, which in its existential tendencies could be very productive for a patient-orientated psychiatrist. The writings of D. Wyss stand in contrast to that disappearance of psychopathology. The author stressed the historical development of the patient an the importance of conflict which yields the dynamics of that development. The conception of psychosis has as its basic concept that of perspective which is a fundamental union of the "interior" and "exterior" of the human person. The essay ends with a discussion of the importance of the author for a humane psychotherapy which exists in a symmetric relation to the patient.
