“A journey through madness” as a sacred quest
Type de matériel :
TexteLangue : français Détails de publication : 2018.
Sujet(s) : Ressources en ligne : Abrégé : The authors propose a journey through Mary Barnes’ work. Her subjective path is related to British antipsychiatry as a “crisis-producing” discourse (regressions, metanoia). The English muse’s course depicts the experience of a subject struggling with her psychic structure. But it is also a reflection of an existence hanging onto a quest for Something Sacred, somewhere between religion, the Laingian model of metanoia, and counterculture. As a Name-of-the-Father heretic, how did M. Barnes manage to find another way –among mystique and madness– by means of prayer, painting, writing, and her role as a guide, leading her to her truth?
