| Résumé : | Recent criticism of psychiatric nosology has the potential to renew interest in the concept of a psychotic continuum or ‘unitary psychosis’. The historical origins of unitary psychosis can be traced back to a pre-Kraepelinian, nineteenth century world of alienist practice. The article revisits one of the seminal moments in the concept’s emergence: Albert Zeller’s reception and critique of Joseph Guislain’s monograph Traité sur les phrénopathies (1833/1838). It argues that an altogether cerebro-centric and somatic understanding of mental illness has led historians of psychiatry to downplay certain aspects of the original idea. In recovering some of the earlier holistic, soulful, and gastrointestinal meanings of unitary psychosis, the article suggests its potential to resonate in today’s debates about personalized medicine and molecular diagnostics.
