"Creativity and Psychotic States in Exceptional People tells the story of the lives
of four exceptionally gifted individuals: Vincent van Gogh, Vaslav Nijinsky, Jose
Saramago and John Nash. Previously unpublished chapters by Murray Jackson are set
in a contextual framework by Jeanne Magagna, revealing the wellspring of creativity
in the subjects' emotional experiences and delving into the nature of psychotic states
which influence and impede the creative process. Jackson and Magagna aim to illustrate
how psychoanalytic thinking can be relevant to people suffering from psychotic states
of mind and provide understanding of the personalities of four exceptionally talented
creative individuals. Present in the text are themes of loving and losing, mourning
and manic states, creating as a process of repairing a sense of internal damage and
the use of creativity to understand or run away from oneself. The book concludes with
a glossary of useful psychoanalytic concepts. Creativity and Psychotic States in Exceptional
People will be fascinating reading for psychiatrists, psychotherapists and psychoanalysts,
other psychoanalytically informed professionals, students and anyone interested in
the relationship between creativity and psychosis"
