FREN 408: UNMASKING MADNESS
Fall 2024 · Section 001 · CRN 16953
How does literature complement medicine in its definition of madness? Is madness simply a mental illness or can it be socially-constructed? In this course, we will demystify such questions through the exploration of French and Francophone fictions and theoretical works. We will study notions such as unreason, passion, delirium, alienation, and maternal psychosis. Cross-list: MDHM 415.
