Origin: A borrowing from Greek, combined with an English element. Etymons: Greek παθητός , -ism suffix.

Etymology: < ancient Greek παθητός passive (see pathetic adj.) + -ism suffix.Apparently coined by La Roy Sunderland (the first editor of the New York Magnet: see quots. 1843¹ at main sense) at about the same time that J. Braid was introducing the term hypnotism n. Compare French pathétisme the quality of being pathetic (1740).

Now historical.

1843 Magnet (N.Y.) Feb. 202/1 Hence our authority for the adoption of the following terms... Pathetism.—The agency by which one person, by manipulation, produces emotion, feeling, passion, or any other physical or mental effect, in the system of another... We respectfully submit it to all concerned, whether this be not a far better term..than either ‘magnetism’ or ‘mesmerism’?

1843 L. R. Sunderland Pathetism i. 3 Pathetism—I use this term to signify, not only the agency by which one person by manipulation, is enabled to produce..any physical or mental effects, in the system of another, but also that suscepibility of emotion or feeling..in the subject operated upon, by the use of which these effects are produced; as also the laws by which this agency is governed.

1852 A. Ballou Spirit Manifest. ix. 131 Placing the phenomena [of spiritualism] on the same footing with those of Pathetism, Biology [etc.].

1868 Biblical Repertory 40 301 Some of these powers or forces..occasionally show themselves in the facts of biology, mesmerism, pathetism, and the like.

1943 Mississippi Valley Hist. Rev. 30 123 There are discussions of ‘esoteric anthropology,’..of ‘pathetism,’ of the pros and cons of the discovery of a new phrenological bump.

1960 L. Filler Crusade Against Slavery vi. 115 His ‘magnetism’ was soon to give him a role in the new ‘science’ of what was essentially faith healing. It combined aspects of mesmerism, spiritualism, phrenology, and (Sunderland's own contribution) pathetism, which pretended to nothing less than mind control and mind reading.
