Empathy and Indifference

Más información sobre el libro

The exploration of ethical philosophy through phenomenology is challenged by the realities of mental illness, particularly schizophrenia. The author, guided by Prof. Roberta de Monticelli, examines how this condition disrupts empathy and shared experiences, crucial for human connection. The work employs an anthropological lens, detailing a case study that merges factual and phenomenological insights, inspired by Eugène Minkowski's methods. It questions how individuals can coexist in a shared space when one is disconnected from the common world, highlighting the complexities of empathy in the context of mental health.
