The related wordmesmerize (first recorded in English in 1829), having shed its reference to the hypnotic doctor, lives on in the sense "to enthrall.”当一群观众被一位演讲者深深吸引时,他们的反应方式不会是舞蹈、睡眠或哄堂大笑。但是如果换了弗兰茨·奥顿·梅斯梅尔来给这群听众作演讲的话,那么这些行为是有可能发生的。梅斯梅尔,这位18世纪眼光远大的医师,认为可以通过诸如以下方法来治疗疾病,即让病人把脚放在有磁性的水中,同时手执与磁力场相连接的电线。此后,梅斯梅尔又认为他自己体内就存在着磁力,并且他在巴黎推行他的治疗方法的过程中,他又使他的病人们作出了睡眠、舞蹈直至抽搐等各种反应。这些反应实际上是他所拥有的催眠力导致的,但他自己却不知道自己拥有这样的力量。后来,梅斯梅尔的一个叫做皮勒塞格尔的学生采用了mesmerism (在英语中始见于1802年)这一字眼来给梅斯梅尔的治疗方法命名。 另一相关词汇mesmerize (在英语中始见于1829年)则摒弃了与这位催眠医师的关系, 现在这个词意是“迷惑住”〔paroxysm〕A spasm or fit; a convulsion.阵发:痉挛或短暂发作;抽搐〔ticqueur〕A person affected with a tic.患有抽搐症的人〔ticqueur〕from tic [tic] 源自 tic [抽搐] 〔fibrillation〕Rapid, uncoordinated twitching movements that replace the normal rhythmic contraction of the heart and may cause a lack of circulation and pulse.心室纤维性颤动:快速的、不协调的抽搐运动,代替了心脏正常的有节奏的收缩而且可能引起暂时的血液循环及脉搏的停止〔spasmodic〕from spasmos [spasm] * see spasm 源自 spasmos [抽搐] * 参见 spasm |
