The book addresses the increasing interest in the Rorschach test among English-speaking professionals, highlighting the demand for a reliable English translation of Hermann Rorschach's foundational work. Previous unauthorized translations have been scarce and inadequate. This new translation aims to accurately convey Rorschach's ideas while capturing his unique voice and style. The effort acknowledges the complexities involved in translating his original German text, striving to make Rorschach's insights more accessible to a broader audience.

This book describes the technique and the many interesting results achieved in psychological experiments regarding a test which, despite its simplicity, has proved to be of great value in research and in general testing. The widespread and still growing interest in the Rorschach® test which exists in the English-speaking world has made apparent the need for a more easily available source of information concerning the original work. This English translation is presented in the hope of filling that need.

Completely new translation of Rorschach's Psychodiagnostics Newly translated and annotated by experts from the field New introductory chapters Illustrated with photos and drawings from the archivesThis new English translation and 100th anniversary annotated edition of Psychodiagnostics, the only book published by Hermann Rorschach, showcases Rorschach's empiricism and the wide-ranging flexibility of his thinking - and thus helps us to understand why his iconic inkblot test has survived for a century and is still being used around the world, with the support of a strong evidence base. The expert translation team have collaborated closely to create an accessible rendition of Hermann Rorschach's presentation of the inkblot test that resulted from his empirical research experiments. Also included in this edition is the case study lecture on new developments in the test that Rorschach gave to the Swiss Psychoanalytic Society in 1922, just six weeks before his premature death. His book and the lecture are each accompanied by annotations for the first time, looking backward to the sources of Rorschach's terminology and also forward to how the test is used today. Drawings and photographs from the Rorschach Archive as well as introductory chapters on the history of the translation and the creation of Psychodiagnostics bring the story of this important figure and his work to life. This volume is essential reading for both historians and contemporary users of the inkblot test and anyone interested in exploring personality testing.

Über den Schöpfer des später nach ihm benannten Rorschach-Tests ist wenig bekannt. Nichts ist wohl geeigneter, sich dem früh verstorbenen Wissenschaftler und Menschen Hermann Rorschach (1984-1922) zu nähern, als der zum größten Teil unveröffentlichte Briefwechsel Rorschachs mit Familienangehörigen, Fachkollegen und Verlegern, der eine Zeitspanne von 20 Jahren umfasst und hier in chronologischer Folge vorliegt. Der Briefwechsel gewährt Aufschluss über Rorschachs persönlichen und beruflichen Werdegang, sein Denken und Forschen und seine wissenschaftliche Arbeit. Erstmals gewinnt man Einblick in Rorschachs „geistige Werkstatt“, in der sein Formdeutverfahren ausgebaut und weiterentwickelt wird. Aus nächster Nähe verfolgen wir die jahrelangen Geburtswehen bei der Publikation der „Psychodiagnostik“, die Rorschach weltberühmt machte. Nicht nur zur Geschichte der Psychoanalyse, sondern auch zur Geschichte der Psychiatrie - vor allem in der Schweiz - leistet der Briefwechsel einen wichtigen Beitrag. An allgemeiner Zeitgeschichte interessierte Leserinnen und Leser finden eine Fülle von interessanten und lebendigen Schilderungen aus dem im Niedergang begriffenen zaristischen Russland.
