Abstract
Thus, the paper enables us to grasp the complexity of the Kraepelinian legacy more fully, and to understand the paradoxical nature of his posterity, whereby contemporary psychiatry readily claims to be “neo-Kraepelinian” but at the same time fragments these Kraepelinian entities. Alongside, these same entities are spontaneously taken up by clearly rival epistemologies that are more or less disconnected from the naturalistic nosological framework that underpinned them. On the one hand, there is a fragmentation of the Kraepelinian categories alongside the exaltation of Kraepelin's project; on the other hand, there is a rejection of Kraepelinian thought alongside faith in his categories.
