Abstract

The first major study of the relationship between Scottish Romanticism and medical culture.

In the early nineteenth century, Edinburgh was the leading centre of medical education and research in Britain. It also laid claim to a thriving periodical culture. Literature and Medicine in the Nineteenth-Century Periodical Press investigates how Romantic periodicals cultivated innovative literary forms, ideologies and discourses that reflected and shaped medical culture in the nineteenth century. It examines several medically-trained contributors to Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine, the most influential literary periodical of the time, and draws upon extensive archival and bibliographical research to reclaim these previously neglected medico-literary figures. Situating their work in relation to developments in medical and periodical culture, Megan Coyer's book advances our understanding of how the nineteenth-century periodical press cross-fertilised medical and literary ideas.

Key Features
  • Describes a distinctive Scottish medical culture of the Romantic-era and its synergistic relationship with literary culture
  • Advances our understanding of the medical content of key periodicals of the nineteenth century
  • Draws upon extensive archival and bibliographical research to reclaim several previously neglected medico-literary figures
  • Examines the ideological roots of nineteenth-century popular medical writing

Abstract

What does it mean to "be a man" in different cultures around the world? In the first cross-cultural study of manhood as an achieved status, anthropologist David D. Gilmore finds that a culturally sanctioned stress on manliness-on toughness and aggressiveness, stoicism and sexuality-is almost universal, deeply ingrained in the consciousness of hunters and fishermen, workers and warriors, poets and peasants who have little else in common.   "Gilmore's subtle and illuminating inversion of ordinary understandings-his insight that male sterness, toughness, acquisitiveness, and aggressiveness serve, in circumstances of threat and scarcity, the same social ends as female tenderness and gentleness-has been suggested elsewhere, but never stated so completely nor in so unmistakably masculine a voice. . . . A signal service."-Beryl Lieff Benderly, New York Times Book Review   "The news in this anthropological study is not that so many societies . . . have developed rigid codes of masculinity. . . . Rather, it is that there are societies-on Tahiti and in Malaysia, for two-in which men are encouraged to be passive. . . . All of which, the author observes, causes consternation among Freudians (not to mention apostles of machismo), who have an investment in believing that fear of castration has engendered universal male anxiety over masculinity as something to be earned and steadfastly maintained."-Washington Post Book World "Provocative and absorbing."-Library Journal "An absorbing, well-argued, and finely written study."-Nicola Shulman, Sunday Times "The great virtue of this textbook is to demonstrate clearly that there is nothing natural or inevitable about gender polarity."-Robert Brain, Times Literary Supplement "
