    Insanity \In*san"i*ty\, n. [L. insanitas unsoundness; cf.

    existence of delusions, or from incapacity to distinguish
    between right and wrong, with regard to any matter under
    action, does away with individual responsibility.

    Syn: {Insanity}, {Lunacy}, {Madness}, {Derangement},
    {Alienation}, {Aberration}, {Mania}, {Delirium},
    {Frenzy}, {Monomania}, {Dementia}.

    Usage: Insanity is the generic term for all such diseases;
    lunacy has now an equal extent of meaning, though once
    used to denote periodical insanity; madness has the
    same extent, though originally referring to the rage
    created by the disease; derangement, alienation, are
    popular terms for insanity; delirium, mania, and
    frenzy denote excited states of the disease; dementia
    denotes the loss of mental power by this means;
    monomania is insanity upon a single subject.
