Psychiatry is considered to be part of the Sciences de l’Homme (Human Sciences) which, in the meaning attributed to them by Jean Piaget, unite the disciplines that have the whole person as their “objectâ€. Schematically, they include the body, the personality and the relational, or social, environment. The late Faustino Savoldi is an example of a neurologist who dealt with both the phenomenological and the psychoanalytic views. His great work, La coscienza (“The Conscienceâ€), indeed provides an integrated view of neurology and psychiatry, as well as both together with the phenomenological vision. This is a synthesis which is a necessary catalyst to ensure that madness is integrated as a human science, understood as the great framework that holds together man and the world.
