Today, mental disturbance is most commonly viewed through a medical lens, but societies have also sought to make sense of it through religion or the supernatural, or by constructing psychological or social explanations in an effort to tame the demons of unreason. Madness in Civilization traces the long and complex history of this affliction and our attempts to treat it. Beautifully illustrated throughout, Madness in Civilization takes readers from antiquity to today, painting a vivid and often harrowing portrait of the different ways that cultures around the world have interpreted and responded to the seemingly irrational, psychotic, and insane. From the Bible to Sigmund Freud, from exorcism to mesmerism, from Bedlam to Victorian asylums, from the theory of humors to modern pharmacology, the book explores the manifestations and meanings of madness, its challenges and consequences, and our varied responses to it. It also looks at how insanity has haunted the imaginations of artists and writers and describes the profound influence it has had on the arts, from drama, opera, and the novel to drawing, painting, and sculpture." -- Publisher's description. 000728656 650_0 $$aMental illness$$xHistory. 000728656 650_0 $$aMental illness$$xTreatment$$xHistory. 000728656 650_0 $$aMentally ill$$xCare$$xHistory. 000728656 650_0 $$aPsychiatry$$xHistory. 000728656 85200 $$bgen$$hRC438$$i.S39483$$i2015 000728656 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:728656$$pGLOBAL_SET 000728656 980__ $$aBIB 000728656 980__ $$aBOOK
