Obraz psychiatrie ve třech literárníchdílech dvacátého stoletíK. Kraus - Poslední dnové lidstva,R. Musil - Muž bez vlastností,A. Kutinová - Gabra a Málinka v Praze
Na příkladu tří vybraných literárních děl autor příspěvku předkládá názor, že existuje úzkésepětí mezi jazykem vědy a běžně užívaným jazykem. Toto tvrzení ukazuje, že psychiatrie - ipřes proklamovanou objektivitu - není vědou hodnotově neutrální.
Klíčová slova:
psychiatrie - etika - věda - společnost - literatura.
