1.6. Personality disorder: Ernest Hemingway
Consider the congenital personality traits of Ernest Hemingway.
Ernest Miller Hemingway (July 21, 1899 – July 2, 1961) was an American novelist, short-story writer, and journalist. His economical and understated style – which included his iceberg theory – had a strong influence on 20th-century fiction, while his adventurous lifestyle and public image brought him admiration from later generations. Hemingway produced most of his work between the mid-1920s and the mid-1950s, and he was awarded the 1954 Nobel Prize in Literature. He published seven novels, six short-story collections, and two nonfiction works. Three of his novels, four short-story collections, and three nonfiction works were published posthumously. Many of his works are considered classics of American literature.
Hemingway received wide recognition thanks to his novels and numerous stories – on the one hand, and his life full of adventures and surprises – on the other. His style, concise and rich, significantly influenced the literature of the 20th century.
This American writer suffered from acute bouts of depression that led to mental breakdown. The symptoms were the writer’s suicidal tendencies, persecution mania and frequent nervous breakdowns. When Hemingway returned to America from Cuba in 1960, he immediately agreed to be treated in a psychiatric clinic – he was tormented by frequent depression, a sense of insecurity and constant fear. All this interfered with his work. Leaving the clinic, Hemingway realized that he could not write as before, and then his first suicide attempt happened, interrupted by relatives. The writer’s wife persuaded him to undergo a second course of treatment, but he still had the intention to commit suicide. A couple of days after being discharged, Hemingway shot himself in the head with his favorite gun…
Ernest Hemingway was born on July 21, 1899, the octanalytic personality formula
13 lunar day / 34-Sagittarius / 92% + // 42-Cancer / 2-24-Pig.
If Hemingway had become familiar with the octanalytic formula of his personality, he would have understood the objective cause of his depression, he would not have shot himself in the head with his favorite gun, he would have registered in the octanalytic patronage system for the necessary psycho-correction.
An analysis of the congenital dominant properties of Ernest Hemingway’s psyche clearly shows that the methods of octanalysis make it possible to identify the cause-and-effect relationships of a mental disorder.
1.7. Personality disorder: Vincent van Gogh
Consider the congenital personality traits of Vincent van Gogh.
Vincent Willem van Gogh (30 March 1853 – 29 July 1890) was a Dutch Post-Impressionist painter who posthumously became one of the most famous and influential figures in Western art history. In a decade, he created about 2,100 artworks, including around 860 oil paintings, most of which date from the last two years of his life. They include landscapes, still lifes, portraits and self-portraits, and are characterised by bold colours and dramatic, impulsive and expressive brushwork that contributed to the foundations of modern art. Not commercially successful in his career, he struggled with severe depression and poverty, which eventually led to his suicide at age thirty-seven.
