"Neurotic"

"Kalb was characterized as neurotic in her youth." Not possible. "Neurotic" was not an available category in Enlightenment Germany. What was the actual characterization and from whom? "Hysteric"? "willful"? --Wetman (talk) 11:35, 23 March 2014 (UTC)Reply

From Bruford (1962): "In Mannheim, he had been strongly attracted by Charlotte von Kalb, an intelligent but neurotic young woman..." If you think the sentence should be reworded, please go for it. --Rosiestep (talk) 16:54, 23 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
