In his "Reminiscences of Dostoevsky" (1885), S. D. Yanovski* compares the
author of Crime and Punishment and other "psychological" novels to Western
psychiatrists Charcot, Siegmund Freud [...] and Carl Westphal:


This is a common mistake. Freud was not a psychiatrist. He was a
neurologist. He invented a form of psychotherapy which he called psychoanalysis.
