Life

Maud Mannoni grew up in what was then the Dutch colony of Ceylon for the first ten years of her childhood. She then went to high school in Amsterdam and Antwerp. She studied psychiatry and criminology in Brussels. By Françoise Dolto she was introduced to the child analysis. In 1948 Mannoni went to Paris and got to know the work of Jacques Lacan there.

Mannoni specialized in mental illnesses in children and adolescents, in particular in psychoses and child deficits. In 1969, together with Robert Lefort , she founded an alternative psychiatric facility in Bonneuil-sur-Marne for children and young people in need. It was a place to live and for experimental structures for autistic , psychotic or retarded children and adolescents. There Mannoni practiced a therapy in which the community was of central importance. She herself called it a concept of broken institutions . Her work was based on alternative therapy options such as those developed by Fernand Deligny in the Cevennes.

In relation to the field of antipsychiatry , she occupies a prominent position among Jacques Lacan's students . She was married to Octave Mannoni , who also wrote a biography about Sigmund Freud .
