Reflecting on the folly means reflect on the notion of identity, how we perceive things, on what is the reality.
Madness is not just discomfort or illness: with its categories, it provokes and challenges our worldview. To say that what true madness is quite an arduous task, yet many have tried to give a valid meaning and the term.
In the past and present, the madness has manifested itself in many of its small ways: through the genius scientists, the verses of poets, the melodies of the musicians, the bright colors on the canvas of the artists, the rash of powerful.

But today the term "madness" has a more common simply to indicate who rebels against the order of social life to give vent to the passions, feelings, instinct, the pure irrationality. This term is entered then become part of everyday language and can no longer be kept out of the real world as a manifestation of diversity, as an enemy that threatens the identity of ognuno.Dalla reality of today can be seen as the ' Man is born from the encounter between truth and madness, and how the world runs tirelessly to something that is not moved by the unbridled desire for power, conquest and victory.
"From the depths of the Middle Ages the insane is he whose speech may not operate as that of others, understood that his word is considered as null and void, having neither truth nor importance ... (" From 'order of discourse " )
With these words, spoken in 1970 at the College de France, Foucault explained one of the procedures' s exclusion of discourse: the partage (partition and rejection of the insanity) or the opposition between reason and madness.
"It 's interesting to note that for centuries in Europe or the word of the crowds was not intended, or if it was, was heard as a word of truth. '(' From 'order of discourse ").
The words of the crowds were, and are the manifestation of his madness, the place in which you reach the partition between the sensible el'insensatezza. Even today, for Foucault, there are mechanisms of partition, but they are operated on the basis of new institutions, with new effects. The crowds will listen and decipher through a network of psychologists, psychoanalysts and doctors ("armor of knowledge") sanctioned in places such as psychiatric hospitals.
Michel Foucault, who was born in 1926 in Poitiers, he studied philosophy and psychology at the Ecole Normale Superieure Paris. He then worked at French cultural institutes and in 1970 he was appointed professor of the history of systems of thought at the Collège de France. He died in Paris in 1984. The interest of Foucault, in principle, focus on epistemology: the problem is to identify the historical conditions under which the disease and madness have been set up as objects of science, giving rise to psychopathology and clinical medicine, closely related to the construction of indoor (the clinic and the asylum), which establishes a relationship of domination between doctor and patient. And these are precisely the issues that Foucault addresses in his first successful works, History of Madness in the Classical (1961) and Birth Clinic (1963).
"Madness is the exclusive language - that against the code of the tongue pronounced words without meaning (the" senseless ", the" imbeciles, "the" insane "), or speak words that sanctify (the" violent ", the "furious"), or what passes banned meanings (the "libertines", the "stubborn").
The changes are not really produced only with Freud, when the experience of madness has shifted to the final form of the language ban. He then ceased to be errors of language, uttered blasphemy, or meaning intolerable (In this sense, psychoanalysis is really the great removal of disqualifications, as saying Freud himself) appeared as a word that wraps itself up, saying, below what it says, other things of which the same time, the only possible code: esoteric language, if you will, because it retains its language into a word that in the end does not say other things that this implication.
must therefore take Freud's work for what it is, it does not discover that the madness has taken over a network of meanings in common with the language every day, thus allowing to talk about the flatness of everyday psychological vocabulary. It displaces the experience European folly to be located in that region dangerous, transgressive always (and therefore still prohibited, but in a particular mode) is that of languages \u200b\u200bthat involve themselves, in their statement stating that the language in which it lay down. Freud did not discover a sense of lost identity; irruptive has interpreted the figure of a signifier that is absolutely not like the others. This thing should have been sufficient to protect his work from all the psychologizing interpretations with which they covered the last fifty years in the name (mocking) of the "human sciences" and their units asexual. "
In this reading, taken from "History of madness in the classical age, "Michel Foucault is concerned with certain features of European history of madness, with particular emphasis on the contribution given by Freud to the problem.
It 'important to understand, all this talk of the Treaty, like the crowd does not deter the individual from himself but gives him a share of a reality that is outside the rules and canons of decency, it is a reality that hides in the depths of the soul is the essence of the spirit.
