Without her, we could never have produced this issue. We couldn't get Adobe PageMaker to do anything'of any use, and it rebelled at every turn. When Scarlett gave orders, the program Colin Martindale knew that it had better obey them. The first author would like to take this University of Maine occasion to thank Scarlett for always being there when he needed her, not only in this case but in so many others across the last 20 years. She is an expert at Sarah BenoLken desktop publishing, and could have asked a high fee for her work on this issue, New York, New York She charged nothing. Regard the layout of the issue as a gift to Division 10 from her. We thank Stevie Wilson and Sarah Jordan at APA for putting up wii h When he became president of Division 10, Robert J.

A look at income from dues may be to them and no doubt a great relief as well—this is our final venture and how much the division has in reserve showed him that this was not a fea­ into desktop publishing. The issue was produced in spite of the incompetence sible goal. However, both he and the executive committee felt that the division of several people.

It was profound gratitude for this gift. felt that a good way to begin the Bulletin of Psychology and the Arts would be special theme-issues devoted to topics that would be of interest to all members Colin Martindale of the division. With this issue, we shall see if that is in fact a good way to start Department of Psychology This special issue of the Bulletin of Psychology and the Arts is devoted to University of Maine creativity and psychopathology. The reader will note that most of the major Orono ME 04469 theorists have contributed articles. For this, we sincerely thank them, as con­ tributors had only a bit over a month to prepare their articles. Other names one might expect to see had quite good reasons for not being able to contribute. Spiraling Upward: Kay Jamison, for example, has just sent her regrets for being unable to send an A Century of Research on article. She only learned of our invitation after returning—literally hours be­ fore the Bulletin had to be sent to the printers—from England. Creativity and Psychopathology Though there is a growing consensus that creativity and psychopathology are related, there is not unanimity, and there is not agreement as to how or to Colin Martindale what extent they are related. In the first part of the Bulletin, we have arranged University of Maine * articles roughly from those in which it is argued that the relationship is close I t through those in which it is argued that the relationship is moderate or slight to In 1900 it was widely believed that genius and insanity are intimately related | those in which it is argued that that there is little or no relationship. Articles and that creativity is in large part transmitted genetically. The same is widely ! the authors of which explore in various ways relationships between creativity believed in 2000.

  • Madness and Introspection in Marcellus Emants's Een Nagelaten Bekentenis
    ‘Eigenschaften ohne Mann’: Madness and Introspection in Marcellus Emants’s Een nagelaten bekentenis (1894) ‘Eigenschaften ohne Mann’: Waanzin en introspectie in Marcellus Emants’s Een nagelaten bekentenis (1894) Ernst van Alphen, Leiden University Abstract: In the dominant discourse madness is considered as the opposite of rationality. It concerns the decline, and in extreme cases even the disappearance of rationality in the organization of human conduct and experience. In this article the author explores a more recent, modernist discourse on madness. The new discourse does not understand madness as a decline of rationality, but as an increase or intensification of reason. Madness is not the result of abundance of passions, emotions and vitality but rather of the estrangement from these. This modernist discourse on madness manifests itself in literary novels that magnify the practice of introspection to the most extreme extent. These novels feature a first-person narrator who reflects relentlessly and ruthlessly on his own conduct, feelings and experiences. In these cases the narrative device of first-person narration is symptomatic for a new attitude towards human consciousness and the faculty of reason that substantiates it. In order to better understand the radical effects of introspection through first-person narration, the author focuses on the Dutch novel A Posthumous Confession (Een nagelaten bekentenis) from 1894 by Marcellus Emants. The novel has not been read for its first-person speech act of confession; a plot that consists

Introduction Danish National Research Foundation: Center for Subjectivity Research (CFS) was established at the Faculty of Theology, University of Copenhagen on March 1, 2002. The Center is financed by the Danish National Research Foundation with supplementary funding from the University of Copenhagen and Hvidovre Hospital for the period 1.3.2002 – 28.2.2007. The aim of the Center is to undertake a thorough and comprehensive investigation of what might be considered the three fundamental dimensions of subjectivity: Intentionality, self- awareness, and intersubjectivity (i.e., subjectivity in its relation to the world, to itself, and to others). The Center emphasizes interdisciplinary approaches and draws on philosophy of mind, philosophy of religion, and psychopathology and it explicitly seeks to further the dialogue not only between different philosophical traditions (phenomenology, hermeneutics, and analytical philosophy of mind), but also between philosophy and empirical science. During 2006 the Center organized, co-organized, and/or co-sponsored 9 conferences and workshops (with more than 70 speakers) as well as 12 individual guest lectures by invited speakers, and it had 60 foreign visitors.

  • Delusions, Acceptances, and Cognitive Feelings
    DELUSIONS, ACCEPTANCES, AND COGNITIVE FEELINGS BY RICHARD DUB A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School—New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Philosophy Written under the direction of Brian McLaughlin and approved by New Brunswick, New Jersey October, 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Delusions, Acceptances, and Cognitive Feelings by Richard Dub Dissertation Director: Brian McLaughlin Psychopathological delusions, such as the Capgras delusion, the Cotard delusion, and the florid delusions that accompany schizophrenia, have a number of features that are curiously difficult to explain. Delusions are resistant to counterevidence and impervious to counterargument. They are theoretically, affectively, and behaviorally circumscribed; delusional individuals tend not to act on their delusions or draw ap- propriate inferences from the content of their delusions. Delusional individuals are occasionally able to distinguish their delusions from other beliefs, sometimes speak- ing of their “delusional reality.” I argue that these features support non-doxasticism about delusions. Non-doxasticism is the thesis that, contrary to appearances, delu- sions are not beliefs at all. After developing the prospects for non-doxasticism, I of- fer a novel non-doxasticist cognitive model. Delusions are pathological acceptances that are caused by powerful and aberrant cognitive feelings. ii Acknowledgements As I have worked through the issues in this dissertation, my committee members have constantly been invaluable wellsprings of inspiration and guidance. I owe much to them. Andy Egan has been a wonderful source of incisive comments about the nature of belief-like mental states. Conversation with him is always immensely fruit- ful; his suggestions on previous drafts have been top-notch.
