| book description |

Those who are mad like Antonin Artaud, are they just as mad as he was? Madness, like the plague, is contagious, and everyone, from his psychiatrists to his disciples, family, and critics, everyone who gets close to Artaud, seems to participate in his delirium. SylvÃˆre Lotringer explores various embodiments of this shared delirium through what Artaud called â€œmental dramasâ€-a series of confrontations with his witnesses or â€œpersecutorsâ€ where we uncover the raw delirium at work, even in Lotringer himself. Mad Like Artaud does not intend to add one more layer of commentary to the bitter controversies that have been surrounding the cursed poetâ€™s work since his death in 1948, nor does it take sides among the different camps who are still haggling over his corpse. This book speaks of the site where â€œmadnessâ€ itself is simmering.
