وفق قراءات قديمة ترسّخت في ذاكرتي بأن علم النفس خرج من خلال روايات الروائي الفذ دوستويفسكي، إذ كانت شخصيات روايته شخصيات مركبة، وقد أُغرم بها أحد قرائه، فطبق تلك الشخصيات على مرضاه، وقام بتصنيف كل حالات نفسية مرضية وفق الشخصيات الروائية التي قرأها.
وتسجّل كتب السير أن (فيلهلم فونت) هو مؤسس علم النفس الحديث (16 أغسطس 1832 –31 أغسطس 1920)، وهو طبيب وعالم فيزيائي وفيلسوف ألماني، فهل كان فيلهلم فونت هو ذلك المغرم بأدب دوستويفسكي؟
ومن تلك المعلومة التي ترسّخت في ذاكرتي، سُئلت ذات يوم من بعض الأصدقاء: هل تعرف الأمراض النفسية لمن هم في حياتك، أو مروا أو مكثوا في تفاصيل أيامك؟
وكان ردي بالإيجاب، إلا أن الخجل يمنعني من مكاشفتهم بأمراضهم.
وكما هم مرضى فأنا مريض مثلهم، فقط تختلف أنواع أمراضنا النفسية...
والروائي هو الأكثر مقدرة على معرفة النفس البشرية، وأكثر من أي طبيب نفسي، أو دارس لعلم النفس..
ومن يقول إن العالم (فرويد) هو من أنشأ علم النفس أجدني أرتدّ إلى معلومتي بأن علم النفس خرج من روايات الروائي دوستويفسكي، فالعالم (فرويد) درس حالات المهووسين وأصحاب العته، وجمع ملاحظاته وطبقها حالاتٍ نفسيةً مرضيةً على المعتوهين، بينما الروائي يتمكن من الغوص المباشر لنفسية الشخصية المكتوبة، وإجلاء ما علق بها من شوائب وعلل حياتية تظهر نوعية المرض النفسي للشخصية.
وهذه المسألة ليست مؤكدةً تاريخياً، وإنما أميل إليها على يقين أن لكل علم باحثين من أصل الإشكالية التي يبحث فيها الباحث، والنفس البشرية الأقرب إلى اكتشاف نوازعها (الخيرة، والشريرة)، والروائي هو الغواص الذي يقف على تضاريس وأعماق تلك النفسية.
وهذا رأي صائب أو على خطأ لدى الدارسين والباحثين عن تضاريس وعمق علم النفس، وبالتالي، هي دعوة لإعادة قراءة تاريخية النفس البشرية في أمراضها.

According to old readings that have settled in my memory, psychology emerged through the narratives of the great novelist Dostoevsky, as the characters in his novels were complex, and one of his readers became enamored with them, applying those characters to his patients and classifying all psychological disorders according to the fictional characters he had read.
Biographies record that (Wilhelm Wundt) is the founder of modern psychology (August 16, 1832 – August 31, 1920), and he was a physician, physicist, and German philosopher. Was Wilhelm Wundt the one enamored with Dostoevsky's literature?
From that information that has settled in my memory, I was once asked by some friends: Do you know the psychological disorders of those in your life, or who have passed through or lingered in the details of your days?
My response was affirmative, but shyness prevents me from confronting them about their disorders.
And just as they are patients, I am a patient like them; only the types of our psychological disorders differ...
The novelist is the most capable of understanding the human psyche, more so than any psychologist or student of psychology..
And those who say that the scientist (Freud) is the one who established psychology, I find myself reverting to my knowledge that psychology emerged from the narratives of the novelist Dostoevsky. The scientist (Freud) studied the cases of the obsessed and the mentally ill, gathered his observations, and applied them to pathological psychological cases of the insane, while the novelist is able to dive directly into the psyche of the written character, revealing the impurities and life ailments that indicate the type of psychological disorder of the character.
This issue is not historically confirmed, but I lean towards it with the certainty that every science has researchers stemming from the core issue that the researcher investigates, and the human psyche is closest to discovering its impulses (both good and evil), and the novelist is the diver who stands on the terrains and depths of that psyche.
This is a correct or incorrect opinion among scholars and researchers exploring the terrains and depths of psychology, and thus, it is a call to re-read the historical context of the human psyche in its disorders.
