Yes, there are many differences but the main one is that psychiatry is a medical profession that specializes in mental disorders, whereas the history of madness is a historical study of the phenomenon called "madness" that has been used over time to describe certain mental disorders in the past. Psychiatrists must have medical degrees to practice psychiatry and today do not use the word "madness."

Differentiate and explain the difference between insanity and madness?
Mad is the old English term for Mentally disturbed. For example, if you were in England, and you decided to randomly run naked through the town square, they would say that you were "Mad!!" If you were to do that in, say, New York city, perhaps? They would say that you were, "Insane!". However, there is no difference between the two, they have the same meaning.
