What characterizes Minkowski, E.'s thought is that it continues to place priority in the realm of vitalism. It is a valuable field that should be passed on to the current field of psychiatry, where dichotomy between the spirit and body or mind and brain exists, positioning them side by side without being resolved or dissolved. Among his thoughts, this time we will consider his representative work "La schizophrénie" and add commentary from the standpoint of the philosophy of vitalism.
