Should those who suffer from it be secluded from society or integrated more fully into it? This book explores the meaning of mental illness through the successive incarnations of the institution that defined it: the madhouse, designed to segregate its inmates from society; the lunatic asylum, which intended to restore the reason of sufferers by humane treatment; and the mental hospital, which reduced their conditions to diseases of the brain. Rarely seen photographs and illustrations drawn from the archives of mental institutions in Europe and the U.S. illuminate and reinforce the compelling narrative, while extensive 'gallery' sections present revealing and thought-provoking artworks by asylum patients and other artists from each era of the institution and beyond.--Source other than Library of Congress.Psychiatric hospitalsHistoryExhibitionsPsychiatric hospitalsGreat BritainHistoryExhibitionsAsylumsHistoryExhibitionsMental health servicesHistoryExhibitionsMental illnessTreatmentHistoryExhibitionsMentally illCareHistoryExhibitionsHistoryGeneralAsylumsfast(OCoLC)fst00819857Mental health servicesfast(OCoLC)fst01016498Mental illnessTreatmentfast(OCoLC)fst01016606Mentally illCarefast(OCoLC)fst01016705Psychiatric hospitalsfast(OCoLC)fst01081047Great BritainfastExhibition catalogs.fastHistory.fastPsychiatric hospitalsHistoryPsychiatric hospitalsHistoryAsylumsHistoryMental health servicesHistoryMental illnessTreatmentHistoryMentally illCareHistoryHistoryGeneral.Asylums.Mental health services.Mental illnessTreatment.Mentally illCare.Psychiatric hospitals.362.21Jay Mike1959 December 14-1651875Rodríguez Muñoz BárbaraWellcome Collection,MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819137103321This way madness lies4002121UNINA
