Abstract
Coping with illness is a topic well established in social psychology, and in other
social sciences. In this essay 1 focus upon coping with health. 1 restrict myself to health
as an individual activity. Starting with a differentiation between -natural. and «deliberate*
health, which was made in the times of the Enlightenment, 1 look into alternative
health accounts represented in German autobiographies.
