Narrating the Heritage of Psychiatry: Narratives and Mental Health, cartea 01

Elisabeth Punzi, Cornelia Wächter, Christoph Singer
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 8 oct 2024
This volume highlights the importance of diverse voices and perspectives in understanding the history and heritage of psychiatry. Exploring the complex interrelations between psychiatry, heritage and power, Narrating the Heritage of Psychiatry complicates the pervasive biomedical narrative of progress in which the history of psychiatry is usually framed. By examining multiple perspectives, including those of users/survivors of mental health services, the collection sheds light on neglected narratives and aims to broaden our understanding of psychiatric history and current practices. In doing so, it also considers the role of art, activism, and community narratives in reimagining and recontextualizing psychiatric heritage. This volume brings into conversation perspectives from practitioners, patients/users and scholars from the humanities and social sciences.
