Cholera and Nation: Doctoring the Social Body in Victorian England
ISBN: 9780791473436 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 231 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Drawing from sermons, novels, newspaper editorials, poetry, medical texts, and the writings of social activists, Cholera and Nation explores how the coming of the cholera epidemics during a period of intense political reform in Britain set the terms by which the social body would be defined. In part by historical accident, epidemic disease and especially cholera became foundational to the understanding of the social body. As the healthy body was closely tied to a particular vision of nation and modernity, the unhealthy body was proportionately racialized and othered. In turn, epidemic disease...

Disease, Desire, and the Body in Victorian Women's Popular Novels
ISBN: 9780521593236 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Pamela Gilbert argues that popular fiction in mid-Victorian Britain was regarded as both feminine and diseased. She discusses work by three popular women novelists of the time: M. E. Braddon, Rhoda Broughton and "Ouida." Early and later novels of each writer are interpreted in the context of their reception, showing that attitudes toward fiction drew on Victorian beliefs about health, nationality, class and the body, beliefs that the fictions themselves both resisted and exploited.

Mapping the Victorian Social Body
ISBN: 9780791460269 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 267 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The cholera epidemics that plagued London in the nineteenth century were a turning point in the science of epidemiology and public health, and the use of maps to pinpoint the source of the disease initiated an explosion of medical and social mapping not only in London but throughout the British Empire as well. Mapping the Victorian Social Body explores the impact of such maps on Victorian and, ultimately, present-day perceptions of space. Tracing the development of cholera mapping from the early sanitary period to the later "medical" period of which John Snow's work was a key example, the...
