Abstract:
Mythomania is not an isolated pathology in psychiatry: it is mixed with other mental disorders. It is not always easy to assess their seriousness or to differentiate them from banal lies; when someone invents a life other than his own without realizing it, he can be called a mythomaniac. Autobiographical literature contains many texts where truth rubs shoulders with fiction; some writers even have a reputation as great storytellers. Malraux and Gary are among them: both in books and in public statements, they shaped their own legend when their lives were already exceptionally rich, even romant

Abstract:
Introduction The capacity for lying is a common human phenomenon with evolutionary explanations, in which one seeks to deceive usually to avoid harmful or undesired consequences. The spectrum of lies is vast and varies from the content to the motivation. Pathological lying has the potential to affect mental evaluations thus motivating an important discussion regarding this behaviour. Objectives The authors aim to explore the psychopathological concept and spectrum of pathological lies, from their underlying motives to their implications and challenges in psychiatric diagnosis with recourse to

L'oeuvre entière d'Emmanuel Carrère est fondée, dans une large mesure, sur trois principes que sont la dichotomie, la mythomanie et l'uchronie. Que ce soit dans ses romans, ses biographies ou ses essais, l'auteur met en scène ces trois principes de façon récurrente; or, ils sont tous assujettis à celui de la bifurcation. En effet, malgré la diversité des genres impliqués, l'ensemble des textes de Carrère convergent vers une même figure: celle de la bifurcation.

Full text
Abstract:
An entire mythology of theatre history, including some mythomania, surrounds both Lady Augusta Gregory and her play Grania (1912). This chapter looks at a range of these myths, examining the dramaturgical choices Gregory made in adapting the mythic story of Grania to the stage and critiquing the ways in which Gregory has been misogynistically “mummified” in Irish cultural memory. Critically, this chapter draws on archival research to discuss two professional performances of Grania in America that were performed during Gregory’s lifetime and with her approval – exploding the long-held myth that the play was never produced at the Abbey due to Gregory’s own concerns about its “sensitive” autobiographical resonances. This chapter argues that these myths relating to Lady Gregory and Grania emanate from largely unconscious gender-biased ideologies which have resulted in a static, inherited, and unexamined iconography and obscure the true range of Gregory’s impact on Irish theatre.
