The symbolism of the eye in schizophrenia
This research deals with specific manifestations of schizophrenic symptoms. I examine mental illness – through psychology and medicine - to show the correlating segments of psychodiagnostics of drawings and the symbolic aspects of the eye. In my theory the eye means much more than a visual organ. I study mainly graphic representations of the eye, emphasizing on the psychology of pictorial expressions. The paper focusing on schizophrenia to analyse the semantics of the eye through the interpretations of drawings and symbols, biological and philosophical definitions.
