| It is based around the condition of paramnesia, where people completely invent imaginary lives. |
| The term paramnesia was introduced by a German psychiatrist, Emil Kraepelin, in 1886 to denote errors of memory. |
| It will perhaps be proper not to reduce all the phenomena of paramnesia to the same conditions. |
| Wigand and Maudsley think they see in paramnesia a simultaneous functioning of both relations. |
| This was important because there had been a debate of the idea in an 1893 special issue of Revue Philosophique of whether one paramnesia alone existed. |
| Indeed, Krpelin asserts that paramnesia occurs only under normal circumstances. |
