Madness and creativity

Analyst and writer Ann Belford Ulanov, relying on the years of clinical work and reflection, claims that madness and creativity are akin to each other, and this understanding turns over analyst and analyst, reminding us that suffering in the human psyche is inextricably (and often inexplicably) is associated with sources creativity, ministry and even genius. She poses difficult questions: how depends on the order when the chaos is a necessary part of existence? What should we do with evil - with what surrounds us, and with what is inside us? Is there a myth about the meaning that will contain all the differences that threaten us to destroy?
The author’s insights are deployed in the dialogue with the themes of the "Red Book" of Karl Jung, who, according to Jung, expresses the most important experiences in his life, from which he deduced all his subsequent theories.
Based on some fantastic meetings described by Jung, the author suggests that our problems and symptoms can show the path by which our creativity should head. Together with Jung, she claims that the difficulties around and inside us are paradoxically the parts of a larger whole, which can give healing and unity, when, according to her, “each part inside us and the world around us takes its place at the table.”
