We All of Us Make Mistakes’
In August 1920, Dr Lysander Maybury began a course of weekly injections into the longitudinal sinus of newborn Leslie Shewry. Although Maybury told Leslie's parents that he would be giving their son injections, he did not tell them that he had diagnosed congenital syphilis. The precise nature of Leslie's treatment was also unknown to his parents until many years later when they brought a case for damages against Maybury. They alleged that he had …
Municipal Plenty, Municipal Poverty, and Brazilian Economic Development, 1836–1850
Municipalities in nineteenth-century Brazil bore the responsibility for providing public services that enhanced economic exchange, particularly physical infrastructure that facilitated the circulation of goods and services. Therefore, the question of whether the resources to pay for these services were abundant or scarce matters greatly to our understanding of Brazil’s history of economic development and socioeconomic inequality. Although ex ante…
Histories of ‘a loathsome disease’
From Victorian preoccupations with prostitution and degeneration to our present‐day problems with antimicrobial resistance and inequalities in access to care, sexual health has been riddled with gendered, racialised, politicised and class‐based meanings. Historians writing from within an increasingly diverse collection of subfields have explored how British attitudes towards, and interventions in, sexual health have changed over the past two cent…
Migration, Racism and Sexual Health in Postwar Britain
The British Nationality Act 1948 conferred citizenship on Commonwealth subjects, granting them the right to settle in Britain. Hundreds of thousands of New Commonwealth migrants made use of the Act. Almost immediately, opponents began criticizing the health impacts of immigration, focusing on diseases like syphilis and gonorrhoea. More than any other migrant group, Black British men from the Caribbean became implicated in debates over venereal di…
Fiscalidade no Brasil Império
O presente artigo analisa o legado tributário colonial e as primeiras ações do Brasil como nação independente na reestruturação de seu sistema fiscal, na separação das rendas e na definição das competências tributárias das várias instâncias governamentais. Defendemos que a retórica do liberalismo e a falta de planejamento levaram ao estabelecimento de um sistema tributário que manteve os privilégios da elite política e econômica, tendo como base …
Laura Kelly, Irish Medical Education and Student Culture, 1850–1950
As Laura Kelly astutely observes, the experiences of medical students have been surprisingly and woefully understudied by historians. Indeed, with only a few important exceptions, students are absent from histories of medical education, which have traditionally focused on institutional, administrative or curricula changes as well as the influence of wider medical developments on teaching by noted medical men.1 These have, for the most part, been …
Industrial Forests and Mechanical Marvels
Industrial Forests and Mechanical Marvels is a marvelous book about Brazil's coming to terms with its modernization while holding fast to its unmodern self. The book asks how modernization was understood by those who promoted it and those whose lives were upended by it. Modernization unfolded against the backdrop of two major features of nineteenth-century Brazil at odds with one another: the persistent institution of slavery and the hierarchical…
Syphilization and Its Discontents
In 1867 James Lane and George Gascoyen, surgeons to the London Lock Hospital, compiled a report on their experiments with a new and controversial treatment. The procedure, known as "syphilization," saw patients be inoculated with infective matter taken from a primary syphilitic ulcer or the artificial sores produced in another patient. Each patient received between 102 and 468 inoculations to determine whether syphilization could cure syphilis an…
Maria Isabel Romero Ruiz, The London Lock Hospital in the Nineteenth Century
Romero Ruiz's book seeks to offer a new perspective on the Lock Hospital and Asylum's moral and medical activities by examining its dual roles of moral rescue and medical care for fallen women during the nineteenth century. At the centre of this study are issues of gender and female sexuality, framed by the policing and regulation of deviancy among the working classes, as well as by wider medical and legislative changes. The book begins with an o…
Critiquing the Bank
This article offers a critical analysis of scholarship produced about Brazil's Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social (BNDES) since its founding, in 1952, to 2013. BNDES has performed an important, if changing and sometimes controversial, role in Brazil's economic development over the past 60 years, especially as provider of long-term finance. This analysis of almost 1,000 texts highlights discussions about its initial organisation …
Scientific Truth into Homely Language
Ophthalmia neonatorum, a form of neonatal conjunctivitis, was seen to be a serious problem in England at the turn of the twentieth century. Midwives were directly implicated in its prevalence with debate ensuing over the extent to which they should be taught about ophthalmia neonatorum and the extent to which they should participate in the diagnostic and therapeutic process. The involvement of midwives in cases of ophthalmia neonatorum has receiv…
A bolsa de Valores e o financiamento de empresas em São Paulo, 1886-1917
O presente artigo analisa a contribuição da Bolsa de Valores para o processo de modernização econômica de São Paulo na virada dos sé-culos XIX e XX. Seu conteúdo mostra que a Bolsa se desenvolveu rapidamente: de um mercado limitado, informal para o mais importante locus de capital financeiro industrial de São Paulo no curto período de tempo de duas décadas. Embora a Bolsa não apareça como tendo tido uma participação institucional marcante no fina…
A Failure to Deliver
Municipalities in imperial Brazil were required by law to provide a substantial range of public services to their communities, yet the structure of the tax code allocated meager fiscal resources to finance the full complement of these services. Municipal financial ledgers for four municipalities in the province of São Paulo confirm that local governments operated with a perennial shortage of funds, which constrained the provision of public servic…
