This intriguing book examines the ways contagion - or disease -
inform and shape a wide variety of nineteenth century texts and
contexts. Christensen dissects the cultural assumptions concerning
disease, health, impurity and so on before exploring different
perspectives on key themes such as plague, nursing and the hospital
environment and focusing on certain key texts including Dickens's
Bleak House, Gaskell's Ruth, and Zola's Le Docteur Pascal.
