Schizophrenia is one of the most enigmatic mental disorders, and
language is one of its most essential and distinctive traits.
Language and Schizophrenia provides a complete overview of
schizophrenic language, utilising both psychological and
philosophical perspectives to explore the unique way language
impacts on this mental disorder. Language and Schizophrenia
investigates specific features of schizophrenic language using
cognitive psychology alongside the opposing field of
phenomenological psychiatry, concluding that neither of these
approaches fully succeeds in explaining the linguistic features
unique to Schizophrenia. Cardella's innovative approach of
combining psychological perspectives with philosophy offers a
direct alternative to traditional cognitive perspectives,
emphasising the fundamental role that language plays in the
disorder. This book provides a thorough analysis of the deep link
between language and schizophrenia and will be of great value to
researchers and postgraduates studying schizophrenia,
phenomenology, neuropsychology and philosophy of language.
