Abstract

"Founded in 1934 as a small community hospital - open to all patients, regardless of race, religion, language, or ethnic background - Montreal's Jewish General has grown to become an internationally recognized facility, and a major component of McGill University's medical school. This comprehensive account of an esteemed institution begins by outlining the historical connections between Judaism and medicine, and the establishment of Jewish hospitals throughout the Western world at the end of the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth centuries. Specifically Jewish hospitals originated in response to the prevalent anti-Semitism that made post-graduate training for Jewish physicians in hospitals near impossible and also due to the need for kosher facilities for patients. Doctor Frank Guttman, who trained at the Jewish General from 1959 to 1964 and joined its staff in 1965, provides a detailed account of the hospital's history and its various directors, tracking the progress and medical breakthroughs of each department, and presenting the exceptional clinicians and scientists who have made the hospital's progress possible. This book tells the story of Montreal's Jewish General, from humble beginnings to a world-class university hospital, committed to service, teaching, research, and innovation."--

Abstract

Amorce par une toute petite poignee de chercheurs il y a cinquante ans, le domaine des neurosciences à Quebec compte aujourd'hui plus d'une centaine de neuroscientifiques de haut niveau, dissemines dans tout le reseau de l'Universite Laval. Leurs activites occupent tous les principaux creneaux du tres vaste domaine des sciences du cerveau, allant des aspects les plus fondamentaux du fonctionnement neuronal chez l'animal aux processus complexes qui sous-tendent la cognition humaine. On doit ce developpement retentissant aux efforts constants de tous ces chercheurs qui, au cours des ans, sont venus apporter leur pierre à l'edifice commun. Mais, avant tout, nous sommes redevables à des individus singuliers, comme Claude Fortier, Louis J. Poirier, Mircea Steriade, Fernand Labrie, Mme Carol L. Richards, Michel Maziade et Yves De Koninck, lesquels, en plus d'être des chercheurs productifs, ont fait montre d'un sens inne de l'organisation et du developpement de la recherche. Je souhaite que ce texte soit reçu comme un humble hommage à ces developpeurs, de même que comme un incitatif à poursuivre de façon particulierement energique la merveilleuse odyssee qu'ils ont entamee.

Abstract

Neville Terry traces the history of the hospital from its founding by Lord Strathcona (Donald Smith) and Lord Mount Stephen (George Stephen) to its present position as a world-renowned health care and research facility. Focusing on the people whose efforts contributed to the Royal Vic's success - physicians, surgeons, nurses, administrators, support staff, researchers, and volunteers - the author recounts their trials and triumphs in bringing about medical, social, and fiscal change in the health care field. The final chapter documents the Royal Vic's achievements in medical research. Health care in Canada has undergone incredible change in the last century, with tremendous advances in medical knowledge and the implementation of government-funded health care. The Royal Vic provides a fascinating overview of this eventful era.

Abstract

The nineteenth-century study of hysteria at the Salpêtrière hospital was a medical project, but also a theatrical one. The hysteric's public appearance was a continual ethical provocation, pointing not only to the vulnerability of her person but to the unstable position of her spectator. Hysteria in Performance sets out to uncover what kind of performance the hysterical attack is, as well as the nature of hysteria in and as performance as it occurred at Salpêtrière. This groundbreaking study explores how Charcot's findings on hysteria produced a unique mixture of theatre and science that has unexpected things to teach.

Abstract

In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries congenital syphilis was a major cause of infant mortality in France but mercury, the preferred treatment for the disease, could not be safely given to infants. In the 1780s the Vaugirard hospital in Paris began to treat affected infants by giving mercury to wet nurses, who transmitted it to infants through their milk. Despite the highly contagious nature of syphilis and the dangerous side-effects of mercury, the practice of using healthy wet nurses to treat syphilitic infants spread throughout France and continued into the nineteenth century.

Abstract

"In Staging Holiness. The Case of Hospitaller Rhodes (ca. 1309-1522) Sofia Zoitou offers a study of the history of relic collections, devotional rituals and sites invested with special meaning in Rhodes, during a time when the island became one of the most frequented ports of call for ships carrying pilgrims from Venice to the Holy Land. Scrutinizing late medieval travel reports by pilgrims from all over Europe along with extant historical, archaeological, visual and material evidence, Sofia Zoitou traces the various forms of the Rhodian cultic sites' evolution and perception, ultimately considered as an overall artistic strategy for the staging of the sacred"--
