Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Peeps Into the Human Hive, Vol. 1 of 2 The tomb of St. Dympna, the patron-saint of the remarkable lunatic colony at Gheel in Belgium, is sought to this day by the faithful, who have worn away for ages the stones surrounding her effigy in their prayers for her propitiatory influence on behalf of their afflicted friends. And on that spot, at least, it may be said that her influence has not been unfelt. But throughout Europe and for many ages, the treatment of the insane was based on the old priestly conception that madness meant possession by the devil. The awful visitations which darken and overthrow the mind of man were regarded as visible manifestations of the Evil One, to be exorcised by charms or averted by the ritual of superstition.
