While undertaking research, G.F. Frankau obtained, on loan from a private library, an original edition of Mesmer's M moire sur la d couverte de Magn tism Animal. Realising its medico-historical importance and tempted by a layman's vanity to undertake the translation himself, he eventually decided that the task could only be accomplished by an expert; He secured the services of Captain V. R. Myers of the Berlitz School of Languages. Myer's rendering of the eighteenth-century French is highly praiseworthy. The adjective \"mesmeric,\" the substantive \"mesmerism,\" and the verb to \"mesmerise\" have not changed their meanings since they first became current--posterity's unique tribute to a unique man.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Soul Care Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781927077313\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 72\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.15d","brand":"Franz Anton Mesmer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":37893909184693,"sku":"9781927077313","price":11.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_cb34e9ec-0814-4e26-9d6b-6a2954d4ab66.jpg?v=1607694717","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/mesmerism-the-discovery-of-animal-magnetism-english-translation-of-mesmers-historic-mmoire-sur-la-dcouverte-du-magntisme-an-9781927077313","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
