Horizontal Scenographies. The Sickbed as a Setting of Psychiatric Subjectivation

  • Monika Ankele

Abstract

An illustration from 1912 takes us into the interior of the State Hospital Haina, a hospital for mentally ill men and women, which was founded on the grounds of a former convent in the province of Hesse (Fig. 1). The picture reveals an (idealized) view of a ward that is furnished according to its purpose: one bed after another is lined up along the walls in a large and open space.
