Description

From Pinel, Tuke, and Wagnitz onwards, we know that the insane, for a century and a half, have been subjected to the regulation of this confinement, as well as that one day we will discover them within the halls of the General Hospital, in the isolation rooms of the rogues; we will realize that they had mingled with the population of Workhouses or Zuchthausern [penitentiaries].

However, it has never been made clear what their legal status was there, nor has it ever been clarified what meaning this proximity had, which seemed to designate the same homeland for the poor, the unemployed, the convicts, and the insane.

Behind the walls of confinement, Pinel and the psychiatry of the 19th century will encounter the insane; there they will leave them - let us not forget - bragging that they have 'liberated' them.

Since the mid-18th century, madness has been associated with this land of confinement and with the gesture that indicated it as its natural space.
