Capturing Racial Pathology
This article focuses on the untapped, complicated, fragile, and fluid visual archives of the elite White surgeon Rudolph Matas, a large proportion of which was produced during the late 19th and early 20th century, a time when he was a resident at New Orleans’ Charity Hospital in Louisiana and a professor of general and clinical surgery at Tulane University’s Medical Department. The article’s main aim is to understand the role of visual materials …
Rana Hogarth, Medicalizing Blackness
Rana Hogarth’s Medicalizing Blackness is a sharp, rigorous, stimulating and thoroughly rewarding investigation of medicine’s key role in the manufacture, manipulation and mobilisation of white racial notions of blackness, as developed for personal, pecuniary, political and professional ends in the context of Atlantic World slavery. In this book, Hogarth provides a compelling and most convincing multi-layered study that clearly demonstrates how th…

African American Slavery and Disability
The Development of Medical Museums in the Antebellum American South
Prior to the American Civil War, museums were enthusiastically promoted in the annual circulars of southern medical colleges as valuable aids to medical education. Using case history narratives, medical college circulars, and announcements, this article examines the social origins of the region's collections of anatomical and pathological specimens and explores the professional agents and organizations responsible for their maintenance and develo…
"A Dictate of Both Interest and Mercy"? Slave Hospitals in the Antebellum South
As a contribution to debates on slave health and welfare, this article investigates the variety, functions, and overall significance of infirmaries for the enslaved in the antebellum South. Newspapers, case histories, and surviving institutional records of antebellum Southern infirmaries providing medical treatment for slaves offer a unique opportunity to examine the development of modern American medicine within the "peculiar institution," and t…
I can do the child no good’
This article examines the influence of slavery and race on medical education, practice and research in the American South. Drawing on the published autobiography, case-histories, and correspondence of American slave surgeon and 'pioneer' gynaecologist, James Marion Sims, the contribution highlights a lesser known episode from his early career, namely his surgical treatment of enslaved infants suffering from trismus nascentium (neonatal tetanus). …
A Prejudice that Rarely Utters Its Name
In his recent critical essay on history of Catholic Church, Swiss-born theologian Hans Kung notes that assessments of institution, both internal and external, vary significantly. A faithful but questioning priest, he opines that it is most controversial of churches subject to extremes of admiration and attack. (1) Claiming that at mid-twentieth century common attitude towards it was one of benevolent indifference, Kung suggests that its current r…
Against the Spirit of the System
In this wide-ranging exploration of American medical culture, John Harley Warner offers the first in-depth study of a powerful intellectual and social influence: the radical empiricism of the Paris Clinical School. After the French Revolution, Paris emerged as the most vibrant center of Western medicine, bringing fundamental changes in understanding disease and attitudes toward the human body as an object of scientific knowledge. Between the 1810…
