Medicine and Maladies explores the aesthetic, medical, and
socio-political contexts that informed depictions of illness and
disease in nineteenth-century France. Eleven essays by specialists
in nineteenth-century French literature and visual culture probe
the acts of writing, reading, and viewing corporeal afflictions
across the works of medical practitioners, surgeons, pharmacists,
novelists, and artists. Tracing scientific discourse in literary
narratives and signalling references to fiction in medical texts,
the contributions to this interdisciplinary volume invite us to
rethink the relationship between the humanities and the medical
sciences.
