Notes

    • "Judge Daniel Paul Schreber (1842 - 1911) was well known as a legal figure in nineteenth century Germany, but became more famous for his 'illness' than his case work. As he descended into delusions and paranoia, Schreber became convinced that God was 'unmanning' him, and he wrote of his unwilling transformation in his famous treatise Memoirs of my Nervous Illness, a book which intrigued Freud and other psychiatrists."
    • Oxford Street is the site of Sydney's Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras.
