Insanity fascinates novelists and poets, who weave it into their writing, in spite of its ever puzzling complexity. The literary works of the Bulgarian canonical writers shed light on the various types of mental health issues through topic variations and viewpoints in psychiatry and psychoanalysis. The article discusses some of the most iconic figures in the local classical literature such as Ivan Vazov, Kiril Hristov, Elin Pelin, Georgi Stamatov, Geo Milev, Aleksandar Vutimski, Aleksandar Gerov, Pavel Vezhinov, Ivan Radoev, Dobromir Tonev and Boris Hristov, trying to answer the question if their fiction definitions can moderate or depict psychotic disorders, drawing a relevant conclusion about the status of our knowledge of the etiology and meaning of schizophrenia.
