Richard von Krafft-Ebing was a famous psychiatrist and sex researcher. However, little is known reliably about his life and work. The author was the first with the opportunity to review Krafft-Ebing's papers, which only recently had become accessible. Based on original documents, Krafft-Ebing's history is outlined. While Krafft-Ebing as general psychiatrist only followed the ongoing modernization and liberalization in his field, he was a pioneer of modern forensic psychiatry in his writings, opinions, and especially his viewpoint, emphasizing individual rights and responsibilities. In the field of sexual psychopathology, he basically summarized known case reports but did not lay down theoretical or therapeutic foundations for modern sexual science.
理查德·冯·克拉夫特-埃宾是一位著名的精神病学家和性学研究者。然而，关于他的生活和工作，可靠的信息却知之甚少。作者是第一个有机会查阅克拉夫特-埃宾的论文的人，这些论文直到最近才得以公开。基于原始文件，勾勒出了克拉夫特-埃宾的生平。虽然作为普通精神病学家的克拉夫特-埃宾只是追随其所在领域正在进行的现代化和自由化潮流，但在其著作、观点，尤其是强调个人权利和责任的观点方面，他却是现代法医精神病学的先驱。在性心理病理学领域，他基本上只是总结了已知的病例报告，却没有为现代性科学奠定理论或治疗基础。
