| Sumario: | The evolution of Homoeopathy, as laid down by Samuel Hahnemann in the Organon of Medicine, emphasized the totality of symptoms as the true basis for cure. Among these, the mental and emotional symptoms hold a position of prime importance. Hahnemann consistently highlighted that the state of mind often reflects the deepest disturbance of the vital force, making psychological manifestations crucial for understanding the patient's individuality. Building on this foundation, James Tyler Kent (1849-1916) developed his Repertory of the Homoeopathic Materia Medica, which became one of the most widely used and influential repertories in classical homoeopathy.
