The similarities between madness and modernism are striking:
defiance of convention, nihilism, extreme relativism, distortions
of time, strange transformations of self, and much more. In this
revised edition of a now classic work, Louis Sass, a clinical
psychologist, offers a radically new vision of schizophrenia,
comparing it with the works of such artists and writers as Kafka,
Beckett, and Duchamp, and considering the ideas of philosophers
including Nietzsche, Heidegger, Foucault, and Derrida. Here is a
highly original portrait of the world of insanity, along with a
provocative commentary on modernist and postmodernist culture.
