Résumé

In "Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds, " Charles Mackay masterfully examines the psychological underpinnings of mass movements and collective behaviors, revealing the tribulations of human folly across history. This comprehensive three-volume edition delves into notorious phenomena such as tulip mania, witch hunts, and the South Sea Bubble, employing a narrative style that is both accessible and richly descriptive.
Mackay'Äôs exploration transcends mere historical account, presenting a critical analysis of the irrational impulses that can grip societies, demonstrating how susceptible individuals are to the whims of public opinion and social contagion. Charles Mackay, a Scottish journalist and poet born in 1814, had a keen interest in social psychology and the nature of human behavior. His experiences witnessing the tumult of the Victorian era, marked by economic upheaval and fervent trends, instilled in him a deep skepticism towards the collective mindset.
This influenced not only his work as a commentator during his time but also fueled his desire to dissect the recurring patterns of madness that lead people from reason to irrationality. This remarkable work is an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of human behavior within a societal context. Mackay's enduring insights reveal the persistent relevance of his analyses today, making it a compelling choice for historians, psychologists, and general readers interested in the dynamics of crowd psychology and the often bewildering nature of human folly.
