The Woman beneath the Skin / A Doctor's Patients in Eighteenth-Century Germany - Duden, Barbara

A Doctor's Patients in Eighteenth-Century Germany

KORTE INHOUD

Duden asserts that the most basic biological and medical terms that we use to describe our own bodies--male and female, healthy or sick--are cultural constructions. To illustrate this, she delves into records of an 18th-century German physician who documented the medical histories of 1,800 women of all ages and backgrounds, often in their own words.
