title: [Don-Juanism. Sexual formation of style as a culture-historical phenomenon and psychiatric problem].
abstract: This is a representation of the developing of "Don Juan" from a dramatic figure into a prototype of a particular human behaviour. First was described a general view of the literary dramatic essay on this theme, of the philosophical, psychoanalytic, anthropological, sexual-pathological aspects of the figure of Don Juan and of "Don Juanism". Then a case of Don Juanism was discussed. The special characteristic style of sexual behaviour was not seen isolatedly, but was regarded as an expression of a special structure of social behaviour. Finally an attempt was made to depict the different interpretations of the figure of Don Juan within our cultural reach in a common perspective. The interpretation and evaluation of this phenonmenon essentially refer to the anthropological conception of v. Gebsattel and Giese.
