About the Book

Master's Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject Philosophy - Philosophy of the 20th century, grade: 67, Staffordshire University, language: English, abstract: Unravel the enigma of female hysteria, a malady shrouded in mystery and misrepresentation throughout history, and discover its profound implications for understanding power, truth, and resistance.

Explore Foucault's concept of simulation as a potent form of resistance against psychiatric power, juxtaposed with Lacan's notion of hysterisation as a relentless pursuit of truth. Through meticulous analysis, this work reveals the subversive potential of the hysteric's discourse, highlighting its ability to dismantle the illusion of mastery and force a perpetual cycle of knowledge production. The dissertation critically examines the interplay between simulation and hysterisation, demonstrating how these strategies function as mechanisms of power and resistance, ultimately questioning the very nature of knowledge and truth itself.
