NOVELLA, Enric J.  e  HUERTAS, Rafael. Kraepelin-Bleuler-Schneider Syndrome from a Modern Perspective: An Assessment of the History of Schizophrenia. Clínica y Salud [online]. 2010, vol.21, n.3, pp.205-219. ISSN 2174-0550.

This article offers a panoramic assessment of the history of schizophrenia. It describes first the foundations of the conventional clinical concept as in the classic works of Emil Kraepelin, Eugen Bleuler and Kurt Schneider. Afterwards, and as a counterpoint to its external or objective characterization, the article presents some of the most notable aspects of the schizophrenic experiential world as reconstructed by phenomenological psychopathology. Finally, it provides a discussion of the major factors and areas involved in the constitution of schizophrenia as a typically modern disorder of subjectivity that combines disturbances of self-consciousness, abnormal bodily experiences and a severe impairment of social life.
