From India to the planet Mars : a study of a case of somnambulism with glossolalia
A 1900 psychology case study by Théodore Flournoy, translated by Daniel B. Vermilye and published in New York and London by Harper, recording a medium's trance visions and invented language for a scholarly readership. The pictures are crude pen drawings of the medium's imagined Martian scenes: a looping ribbon-like form, a hilly landscape with trees and a furrowed path, a two-storey pavilion with ferns, and a row of small boat-like shapes on water, which a designer could take as a model for loose, naive imaginative illustration.
