Description

Explore the connection between psychological experience and creative expression with Madness, Art, and Society: Beyond Illness. Published by Routledge, this work examines how madness is experienced, treated, and represented through various artistic lenses. Instead of looking at mental health through standard psychiatric definitions, this book uses art to think around and beyond traditional ideas of illness and wellbeing. The text engages with a wide range of artistic practices, including theatre, live art, and graphic fiction. It offers a way to think critically with non-normative psychological experiences rather than just observing them from the outside. The book is organized into two distinct parts. The first part, titled 'Structures: psychiatrists, institutions, treatments', examines the history and contemporary models of psychiatric care, including the environments and figures that shape these systems. This book is an essential resource for those interested in the intersection of performing arts, theatre, and mental health studies.
