<P><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#0000CC"><B>The Association
for Henri Ey&#180;s Foundation</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">
has among its goals to preserve Henri Ey&#180;s personal medical
library, as well as his files. This library includes about<B>
</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#990000"><B>2500
scientific works</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">, the
majority of which corresponds to psychiatry, psychoanalysis and
related sciences (psychology, neurology, medicine,pharmacology, and
also sociology, ethnology, anthropology, philosophy, religion,
history,epistemiology), and about </FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#990000"><B>800-1000
(not thoroughly indexed yet) of general
knowledge</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">, literature and
art, thus being of considerable interest.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">The library describes the itinerary
of an exceptional personality who animated French and foreign
psychiatry during half a century, </FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#0000CC"><B>from
1926</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">, the year of his thesis
on psychiatry with proffessor H. Claude,
</FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#0000CC"><B>to
1977</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">, the year of his death.
His desk still keeps the signs of current reading and unfinished
works about: psichiatry and freedom, history of psychiatry, and
criminality and psychiatry.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">One of the most remarkable features
of this library, is that it was </FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#0000CC"><B>a
working library</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">, and not the
one of a collector who would have liked to own the most
representative books of the history of a theory or of his own subject
to his eyes. It was not an ideal library either, which would trace,
book after book, the course of a work. In this extent, we should
remember that Henry Ey nourished most of his work and thinking by
consulting books and magazines at the library of Saint-Anne Hospital
(Paris). This library was leaded by himself from 1930 to 1970, and
nowadays is called "Henry Ey Library". It has a few old books,
(previous to XX century), and neither the works of Jackson and Janet
nor an original edition of Moureau de Tours appear in the catalogue,
unless they were discovered in the future. This is a very paradoxical
fact for those who know Ey&#180;s work.</FONT></P>

<P>&nbsp;</P>

<P><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">On the other hand, it
</FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#0000CC"><B>is a library
wich goes along H. Ey&#180;s everyday
life</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">. It was enriched with
meetings, friendships, congresses, trips, theses, comptes rendues for
magazines, specially for </FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#0000CC"><B>L&#180;Evolution
Psiquiatrique</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">. Thus appears
</FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#0000CC"><B>Ey&#180;s
international dimension</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">, with
a surprising importance and language diversity of his works ( 40 % of
them are writtten in 13 foreign languages, mainly
</FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#0000CC"><B>English,
German and Spanish</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">, nearly
his mother languaje, together with catalan). Likewise there appear
work relationship and frindships,which can be read over the first
page of </FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#0000CC"><B>various
dedicated books</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">: over
</FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#993300"><B>five hundred
of them take a signature</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">, a
discreet or outstanding homage, a friendly reference or a sagacious
word from a famous personality (</FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#0000CC"><B>Lacan,
Binswanger, Minkowski, Laborit, Lain
Entralgo</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">,etc) or from an
unkown character. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">Of his </FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#993300"><B>140
theses</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">, we have picked up
those wich mark </FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#0000CC"><B>the
trends of Claude&#180;s </B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">(25)
and J</FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#0000CC"><B>ean
Delay&#180;s</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times"> (26) schools in
Ste. Anne, and of those of Burdeos, Lyon and Toulouse. Also those of
S. Nacht and D. Lagache, G. Petit, Mr. Dide and Starobinski. It is
not surprising to find a great deal of </FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#990000"><B>psychoanalitic
works (242)</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times"> , namely
Freud&#180;s and Jung&#180;s, whose appearences are contemporary to
Ey&#180;s work, as well as books belonging to the
</FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#990000"><B>phenomenologic
trend (62)</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">, from Binsgwanger
to Minkowsky and Zutt. </FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">Finally, the library keeps the
Master&#180;s readings alive, with many </FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#CC0000"><B>outstanding
and noted works</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">, like those
of Freud, Husserl, P. Ricoeur, M. Foucault or Plotino.</FONT> </P>

<P>&nbsp;</P>

<P><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">The library is also rich in
</FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#0000CC"><B>various
comptes rendus of national and international
congresses</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">, and includes
magazines about psychiatry, psychoanalysis and psychology, putting at
first rank the complete collection of L&#180;Evolution Psiquiatrique,
the Enciclop&eacute;die M&eacute;dico Chirurgicale, etc.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">It became imperative to figure out an
index with both objectives of inventory and evolution, which could be
easy to consult and perfectible to the extent of details and
findings. This demanded both statistical and qualitative searching
engines. For this reason we have chosen an informatic support from
the beginning.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">Thus, this index completes
</FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times" COLOR="#0000CC"><B>J.
Grignon&#180;s remarkable work: the almost 500 publications by
Ey</B></FONT><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times"> are available at
L&#180;Evol. Psiquiatrique 1977, Volume XLII, III/ 2 (a special
number, homage to Henry Ey) , pp. 1109 &#136; 1138, reviewed and
enlarged in 1944 in his thesis of Doctor on Psychiatry (Prof.
Vergote, Lovaina, Belg.).</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE="+1" FACE="Times">To sum up, we are very pleased to
make this library available to students, investigators, historians
and erudites, as well as to the great audience and the well-intended
curious, via the Internet server of the French Federation of
Psychiatry.</FONT></P>
