La pietra della follia

The line between history and philosophy feels seamless, which makes me wonder how much is based on real events versus interpretation. Did this approach make the ideas more impactful or blur the lines too much?

The exploration of mental instability felt deeply personal and disturbing, even more than traditional horror stories. I’m curious how others perceived the emotional impact of these accounts.

The title suggests a focus on madness as a kind of stone or burden. I wonder what led the author to frame the collection around this concept and how it ties into the themes explored.
