  Creativity, the arts, and madness
Albert Rothenberg, clinical professor of psychiatry at Harvard, has served for the past twenty-five years as principal investigator of the Studies in the Creative Process.
Rothenberg states that janusian thinking tends to occur in the beginning stages of creative work when ideas are generated, and homospatial thinking characterizes the development of the creative ideas.
Rothenberg (1990) hypothesizes that this line is crossed, from creativity to madness, when the creative expression is used primarily to control hostility rather than to create.

 Creativity and Madness : New Findings and Old Stereotypes by Albert Rothenberg - pilates.CN Shopping   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Rothenberg's 1994 book claims to have supposedly "debunked" the "myth" between creativity and madness based on his "new findings and old stereotypes" that many geniuses such as aristotle have proclaimed a link between the two for thousands of years.
While Rothenberg's theory does have some truth in it such as obvious facts that creative achievement and insanity aren't the same thing and in fact that insanity in itself can be destructive to creative achievement; or that not all mentally ill people necessarily become eminent creative achievers.
Which I suppose means that even though "new findings and old stereotypes" has disproven Rothenberg's "delusion" (or false belief) of their not being any link between creativity and madness, his "delusional theory" should not be thought of as not being true at all.

Rothenberg says doctors need to be sensitive to the complexities of the creative process to properly treat a creative person who suffers from bipolar disorder.

Comment: Rothenberg is a New Age writer and musician that enjoys playing music to birds and jamming their singing with the sound from different wind instruments.
But Rothenberg enjoys exposing the shortcomings of this research (rather pretentiously by the way) and coming up with unscientific ideas of his own based on his feelings about why birds should spend so much time singing.
David Rothenberg has interwoven a personl journey of playing music with birds with a comprehensive history of bird song studies - from their poetic beginnings to their present scientific analysis.

These were the findings of Dr. Albert Rothenberg, the principle author of the study.

Whether playing the clarinet with the white-crested laughing thrush in Pittsburgh, or jamming in the Australian winter breeding grounds of the Albert's lyrebird, Rothenberg journeys to the heart and soul of bird song.

 The 'Sylvia Plath' effect
There isn't a link between mental illness and the actual process of creating, says psychiatrist Albert Rothenberg, MD, of Harvard Medical School, who has studied Nobel laureates, Pulitzer Prize winners and other highly creative individuals.
Rather, he argues that mental illnesses such as anxiety, thought disorder and depression disrupt the cognitive and emotional processes necessary for successful creativity.
In fact, in his book, "Creativity and Madness: New Findings and Old Stereotypes" (Johns Hopkins University Press, 1990), Rothenberg proposes that highly creative people do better when they are treated for their mental illnesses.

 Amazon.com: Books: Living Color: A Novel (Contemporary and Innovative Fiction)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Rothenberg has turned his analytic insights into fiction that brings to life the power of paintings--their form and color--on the visual and emotional responses of the characters, each of whom reacts in ways that reflect his and her emotional conflicts and attempts at resolutions.
These complex interactions revolve around the mystery and partial destruction and revival of two of the three paintings.
Rothenberg's articulation of the feelings, thoughts, fantasies and intimate interrelations, physical as well as imagined, among the characters shows how his expertise as a psychiatrist has given substance to his descriptions of the characters, but just as important is the exemplifaction of his knowledge of the techniques of painting and his talents as a novelist.
