As late as September 1913, in a lecture delivered to the Psychoanalytic Congress in Munich, Jung, now turning his attention to the psychopathology observed in clinical work, still observed two basic types of ‘relations to the object’ (and the self), that of the ‘hysteric’, whose ‘centrifugal’ extraversion ‘displays as a rule an intensity of feeling that surpasses the normal’, and that of the ‘schizophrenic’, in whom, on account of a ‘centripetal’ introversion, ‘the normal level is not reached at all’ (Jung 1971: 499–500).
