The contemporary dialogue between religion and psychiatry has its roots in what is called the clinical pastoral movement. The early leaders of the clinical pastoral movement (Anton Boisen, Elwood Worcester, Helen Flanders Dunbar, and Richard Cabot) were individuals of talent, even genius, whose lives and work intersected one another in the early decades of the twentieth century. Their legacy endures in the persons they inspired and continue to inspire and in the professional organizations and academic programs that profit from their pioneering work. To understand them and the era of their greatest productivity is to understand some of what psychiatry and religion have to say to each other. Appreciating their legacy requires attention to the context of historical movements and forces current in America at the end of the nineteenth and the beginning of the twentieth century that shaped religious, psychiatric, and cultural discourse. This essay attempts to provide an introduction to this rich and fascinating material. This material was first presented as a Grand Rounds lecture at The New York Presbyterian Hospital, Payne Whitney Westchester in the Department of Psychiatry, Weill Cornell Medical College.
宗教与精神病学的当代对话源于所谓的临床牧灵运动。临床牧灵运动的早期领导者（Anton Boisen、Elwood Worcester、Helen Flanders Dunbar 和 Richard Cabot）都是才华横溢的人，甚至是天才，他们的生活和工作在二十世纪的头几十年相互交织。他们的遗产体现在他们所启发的人和继续启发的人和从他们的开创性工作中受益的专业组织和学术项目中。了解他们和他们最具生产力的时代就是了解精神病学和宗教相互交流的一些内容。要欣赏他们的遗产，就需要关注 19 世纪末和 20 世纪初在美国盛行的历史运动和力量，这些运动和力量塑造了宗教、精神病学和文化话语。本文试图对这一丰富而引人入胜的材料进行介绍。这些材料最初是作为一个大巡讲在纽约长老会医院，威尔康奈尔医学院惠特尼西部精神病学部呈现的。
