title: [The Bleuler tradition of the schizophrenia concept and Burghölzli as the site for psychotherapy of schizophrenic patients].
abstract: The author, who worked for many years with Manfred Bleuler, summarises the essence of Bleuler's theory of schizophrenia: that healthy and disturbed psychic processes occur simultaneously; an understanding of the complexity of the schizophrenic person; understanding the psychosis in relation to a persons life, which arises from a disposition that becomes manifest in the conflicts that life entails; the importance of psychotherapy and social care. The author shows how his own work contributed to this theory.
