Avec la notion de care, les études féministes ont fait des qualités d’attention à autrui et des activités liées au souci des autres un territoire de recherche et un enjeu de société. L’enjeu de ce numéro est donc de mettre à l’épreuve cette notion dans le champ de l’histoire et d’apprécier les domaines de l’activité humaine et les dynamiques sociales et sexuées du passé qu’elle invite à questionner. Les auteur.es se penchent sur les femmes pourvoyeuses de soin en Grèce ancienne, les nourrices employées par un hôpital de Marseille au Moyen Age, les sœurs de la Charité du XIXe siècle français, les ambulancier.es de la Croix Rouge en temps de guerre, les assistantes sociales de l’entre-deux-guerres, les nourrices ou médecins en contexte colonial, ou encore les sages-femmes d’aujourd’hui. Suivies d’un état de l’art critique et réflexif, ces différentes contributions évoquent tantôt l’invisibilité, tantôt la valorisation du travail de care, qui se déploie dans le contexte familial ou encore dans les institutions religieuses ou publiques de soin. Elles permettent ainsi de penser dans le temps long l’histoire de ce travail subalterne de soin et de service, largement féminin.

In Renaissance Italy women played a more central role in providing health care than historians have thus far acknowledged. Women from all walks of life--from household caregivers and nurses to nuns working as apothecaries--drove the Italian medical economy. In convent pharmacies, pox hospitals, girls' shelters, and homes, women were practitioners and purveyors of knowledge about health and healing, making significant contributions to early modern medicine. Sharon Strocchia offers a wealth of new evidence about how illness was diagnosed and treated, whether by noblewomen living at court or poor nurses living in hospitals. She finds that women expanded on their roles as health care providers by participating in empirical work and the development of scientific knowledge. Nuns, in particular, were among the most prominent manufacturers and vendors of pharmaceutical products. Their experiments with materials and techniques added greatly to the era's understanding of medical care. Thanks to their excellence in medicine urban Italian women had greater access to commerce than perhaps any other women in Europe. Forgotten Healers provides a more accurate picture of the pursuit of health in Renaissance Italy. More broadly, by emphasizing that the frontlines of medical care are often found in the household and other spaces thought of as female, Strocchia encourages us to rethink the history of medicine.--
