Produktinformationen zu „A Word to the Wise (ePub)“

After giving us a fascinating reading of Cervantes' classic novel in Don Quixote: Fighting Melancholia, Françoise Davoine and Jean-Max Gaudillière co-author a second work, to reflect on the hero's battle against perversion. To do so, they retrace his adventures in the Cervantes' second Don Quixote, written ten years after the first.

The authors follow in his footsteps as he embarks on this other extraordinary journey in which perversion is laid bare for all to see, creating not only a powerful social link, but even a form of government. Cervantes shows us how madness acts as a means to confront it: here again, the field of action presented to the reader is explored in rigorous detail. The reliability of this strategy derives from the power of the given word, which has to oppose lies, seduction, secrets, trickery and crime, in order to confer authenticity to what madness reveals.

She worked for thirty years as a psychoanalyst in public psychiatric hospitals in France, as well as an external consultant, and is currently in private practice.

Jean-Max Gaudillière became a psychoanalyst and member of the Ecole Freudienne in Paris and worked as a psychoanalyst in public psychiatric hospitals, where he discovered the impact of the historical catastrophies reflected in the symptoms of patients confined to asylums.
