Fighting Melancholia: Don Quixote's Teaching

By Françoise Davoine

Book Overview

In this book, the author draws on her literary background to take the reader on a fascinating voyage with an unexpected but most helpful guide: Don Quixote. In her work, Davoine approaches madness not as a symptom, but rather as a place, the place where the symbolic order and the social link have ruptured.
