The Cradle of Madness

Nationalism and Mental Disease

Liah Greenfeld présentera le premier chapitre de son ouvrage en cours de rédaction Nationalism and Mental Disease. Intitulé « The Cradle of Madness », ce chapitre traite de l’émergence du concept de « madness » dans le contexte du 16e siècle anglais. Cette présentation sera l’occasion de discuter les thèses de Foucault et d’insister sur l’impossibilité de traduire l’anglais « madness » par le terme français de « folie ».

Power

Durham University, 13-16 July 2007

How was power exercised, implicitly and explicitly, in the centuries of the medieval and Renaissance eras? How was it displayed and performed, theorised, ritualised, romanticised, codified, sanctified or opposed? The conference will consider questions such as these in a sequence of interdisciplinary sessions covering the full span of the periods and looking at social contexts ranging from the medieval republic of Iceland to the imperial courts of Renaissance Europe.
