Personalities, Preferences and Practicalities

Yet, as scholars are increasingly acknowledging, the professional boundaries between medicine and nursing were fluid in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, when both scientific knowledge and systems of nurse training were in flux. Through its focus on the role of medical practitioners in educating nurses in wound sepsis at four British…

From mourning to scientific legacy
This paper examines the changing methods, underlying motives, clienteles and controversy surrounding posthumous commemorations of Lord Lister in Britain. The importance of the commemorations for professional identity formation continues throughout the twentieth century, but World War I appears as a turning point. The constituencies commemorating Lister change from broadly international, national and civic with an emphasis on fundraising, to more …

Although originating in a conference in 1996, the contributions have been brought up-to-date; the easily readable chapters and their footnotes provide a goo…

Opportunity on the Edge of Orthodoxy
Following the lead of the Lancet's attacks in the 1840s, historians have considered hydropathy and hydropathists in Britain as part of fringe or heterodox medicine. Yet the distance between varieties of orthodox theory and practice and hydropathy was small, and many of the most prominent hydropathists held orthodox views and qualifications. Examining the educational backgrounds and careers of 40 early British hydropathists, the authors suggest th…
Other Than Healing
The purpose of this paper is to explore briefly the nature, development and implications of the relationship between medical practitioners and life assurance companies. The aim is to elucidate the development both of the medical profession and the life insurance business--two important aspects of economic and social change in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries which are usually treated separately. The focus is primarily, though not excl…
Family Structure in the Staffordshire Potteries, 1840-1880
This study breaks new ground in its analysis of how people both create and adapt to the process of industrialization. It offers a substantial scholarly case-study of the Potteries, which both complements and in some respects challenges studies of family structure in other areas during the nineteenth century. Marguerite Dupree focuses on family relationships - between husbands and wives, parents and children, individuals and their wider kin networ…

The Geographical, Economic, and Social Background
This chapter discusses the geographical, economic, and social conditions of the region in the mid-nineteenth century. This helps determine the kinds of problems and constraints and the opportunities and resources working people in the Potteries faced in their daily lives. It is also able to determine the frequency of various types of crises.
Family Care and Hospital Care
Previous studies of the links between, on the one hand, the household and family background in the community, and on the other, the utilization of hospitals in Britain have concentrated on the Eighteenth century and earlier and emphasized the relative lack of community ties of those utilizsing hospitals. This paper explores these links in a nineteenth–century industrial city by focussing on fever patients in 1871 in the Glasgow Royal Infirmary th…
