  • Claire Brock. British Women Surgeons and Their Patients, 1860–1918

    Open AccessMarjorie Levine‐clark, Marjorie Levine-ClarkARTICLEThe American Historical Review2018

    Feminist historians writing about the history of women and surgery have almost universally represented surgeons as powerful men who experimented on, exploited, and misused women’s passive bodies, often without their consent.

    Using patient case records from University College Hospital in London in the 1830s and 1840s, this article re-evaluates the reproductive model of Victorian women's health. The women who were admitted to UCH were working-class women, and the evidence from the patient records suggests that their understandings of their bodies both conflicted with and supported the Victorian medical model of women as biologically fragile and delicate as a result of …

    Dysfunctional Domesticity” contributes to the growing reevaluation of the importance of the history of the family to understanding the history of insanity.
