[Poetry and schizophrenia].
The confrontation of a poet with himself and his world may be obvious in his creations. When a breakdown like a schizophrenic illness occurs in his life he will fight with creative efforts against his injury. As fragment of this struggle poetic expressions result which allow us to understand the inner life of a psychotic disturbed person better. The poems of two Austrian authors of our time can help us as introduction in this field.
