Abstract

In the journal GROUP PSYCHOTHERAPY(Vol. X, No. 4, Dec. 1957) there appeared an article entitled "Scandinavian Myth about the Origin of Psycho- drama", by Joseph Meiers, M.D. which defended Dr. J. L. Moreno's claim of having originated psychodrama as a method of psychotherapy. Dr. Meiers' paper was directed against a passage quoted from an article by me in The Nervous Child' which appeared in a paper by S. R. Slavson in the International Journal of Group Psychotherapy? In my article I asserted that what Dr. Moreno calls "psychodrama" was, to my knowledge, originated and first applied by the Danish psychiatrist Carl Joergensen.
