An Unusual Erosive Arthropathy from Medieval England
In palaeopathology, diagnosis of skeletal disease is classically made with reference to changes wrought by known diseases in modern or recent cases. This report presents a skeleton from medieval England which shows a form of erosive arthropathy. A more precise diagnosis is problematic because the alterations appear inconsistent with any of the principle forms of erosive arthropathy in current clinical classification. The distribution of lesions i…

Regulating medical bodies? The consequences of the 'modernisation' of the NHS and the disembodiment of clinical knowledge
The aim of this paper is to explore the consequences of modernisation and regulatory processes for the everyday lives of doctors working the UK National Health Service. We do this by reporting on interview data generated as part of a qualitative investigation into the working lives of 47 doctors. The analysis of the empirical findings is informed by two literatures: that which has sought to theorise the contemporary thrust of regulation and audit…
Unilateral' and 'bilateral' practitioner approaches in decision-making about treatment
Health E-types
This paper presents a simple typology of different forms of engagement with the Internet by families with children with various forms of chronic illness. The analysis is informed by ongoing debates about the nature, distribution and efficacy of reflexivity in contemporary social life, especially as it relates to the changing nature of information and knowledge. Drawing upon qualitative interviews with sixty-nine parents and sixteen children, the …

Essays on Conrad
Ian Watt (1917–99) has long been acknowledged as one of the finest of post-War literary critics. The Rise of the Novel (1957) is still the landmark account of the way in which realist fiction developed in the eighteenth century and Watt's work on Conrad has been enormously influential. Conrad in the Nineteenth Century (1979) was to have been followed by a volume addressing Conrad's later work, but the material for this long-awaited second volume …
Myths of Modern Individualism
In this volume, Ian Watt examines the myths of Faust, Don Quixote, Don Juan and Robinson Crusoe, as the distinctive products of modern society. He traces the way the original versions of Faust, Don Quixote and Don Juan - all written within a forty-year period during the Counter Reformation - presented unflattering portrayals of the three figures, while the Romantic period two centuries later recreated them as admirable and even heroic. The twenti…

Developments in the Purchasing Process in the NHS
The introduction of the internal market to the National Health Service in Britain marks a major change in the form of provision of health care interventions. This article reports the findings of independent research into the development of the purchasing process in eight purchasing authorities (which collectively purchase health care for 5 per cent of the population of Britain), and considers the extent to which this has led to an explicit politi…
Laurence Sterne
Laurence Sterne, humorist, sentimentalist and Anglican divine, is recognized of the greatest English novelists, though he wrote only Tristam Shandy and A Sentimental Journey. His interest in women, and his exposure of man's libidinous nature in his novels, have offended moralists. Yet Sir Herbert Read praised him one of the world's greatest humanists and thought him an artist who brought us as close to life we can be. Arthur Cash, without taking …

The Consequences of Literacy
The accepted tripartite divisions of the formal study both of mankind's past and present are to a considerable extent based on man's development first of language and later of writing. Looked at in the perspective of time, man's biological evolution shades into prehistory when he becomes a language-using animal; add writing, and history proper begins. Looked at in a temporal perspective, man as animal is studied primarily by the zoologist, man as…

Story and Idea in Conrad's “The Shadow‐Line”
The Rise of the Novel
In this influential study, Ian Watt traces the genesis and development of the most popular of all literary forms, the novel. In his penetrating and original readings of Daniel Defoe, Samuel Richardson and Henry Fielding, he investigates the reasons why the three main eighteenth-century novelist wrote in the way they did - a way resulting ultimately in the modern novel of the present day. The rise of the middle classes and of economic individualis…

The rise of the novel
The Recent Critical Fortunes of Moll Flanders
D EFOE WAS MUCH INTERESTED IN THE FUTURE, as we can see from his Essay Upon Projects; but he can hardly have envisaged what the future had in store for one of his more casual productions, Moll Flanders: that after two centuries of a more or less underground existence it would emerge to be canonized as one of the world's great novels by the modern movement in literature; that in 1911 James Joyce would declare (no doubt prematurely) that Defoe's he…
