What is Mesmerism? A Basic Definition

Mesmerism \Mes"mer*ism\, n. [From Mesmer, who first brought
         it
   into notice at Vienna, about 1775: cf. F.
         mesm['e]risme.]
   An earlier name for hypnosis or hypnotism,
         the art of
   inducing an extraordinary or abnormal state
         of the nervous
   system, in which the actor claims to
         control the actions, and
   communicate directly with the
         mind, of the recipient. It is
   believed to be a state
         between sleep and wakefulness, in
   which a person is more
         susceptible to suggestion than when
   awake. See {Animal
         magnetism}, under Magnetism.
   [1913
         Webster]
