Abstract

From the late 19th century until the 1920's, authorities required San Francisco's Pesthouse to segregate the diseased from the rest of the city. Although the Pesthouse stood out of sight and largely out of mind, it existed at a vital nexus of civic life where issues of medicine, race, class, environment, morality, and citizenship entwined and played out. Guenter B. Risse places this forgotten institution within an emotional climate dominated by widespread public dread and disgust. In this book, he analyses the unique form of stigma generated by San Franciscans.

Abstract

La peste, ce fléau majeur de l'histoire des hommes est pour beaucoup une maladie historique, dépassée, dont l'énigme de la propagation semble résolue. Il n'en est rien. Dans la lutte séculaire que l'homme mène contre la peste, la connaissance précise des modes de sa dispersion forment un élément-clé. Ainsi l'identification des puces responsables de l'épidémisation constitue-t-elle un enjeu de première importance.
