Abstract
A poetic look at delusional disorders. Drawing on Castoriadis' considerations of the radical imaginary, we can show that contemporary objectivist nosography is not sufficient to grasp the full complexity of this disorder. Two of Baudelaire's poems, L'Albatros and Elevation, seem to illustrate what poetry can say about human imaginary productions.
