The Phenomenology of Insanity

By A. Rapp

"The phenomenology of Insanity" is a phenomenological research into the phenomena of depression, bipolar (mania depression) and schizophrenia. It is a book about those three disorders from philosophical perspective. Nietzsche , the great philosopher, claims that "There is always some madness in love, but there is also always some reason in madness." And Aristotle, another great philosopher, said that "No excellent soul is exempt from a mixture of madness". There is a thin line between sanity and insanity, I want to blear it. I want to find out what is the difference between the "sane" and the "insane". It is a book on philosophy and insanity. In "The phenomenology of insanity" I deal with four important philosophers: Ren? Descartes , Edmond Husserl, Martin Heidegger and Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche . My interpretation of their philosophy shed light on mental illnesses.
