Di/Segni88-6705-605-0 This study investigates eighteenth-century medical writing, particularly concerning the elaboration and the communication of medicine in such reference works as universal dictionaries of arts and sciences, medical dictionaries, and handbooks. Most of the vernacular texts under scrutiny here were issued in the second half of the century, a period in which the advancements in medical research, medical education and medical practice favoured the circulation of an expanding medical vocabulary and stimulated medical writing as a whole. A vast amount of reference works was produced for experts and non-experts alike: medical topics were common in social settings, in personal and communal letters, in specialised journals, in pamphlets and in magazines. All this unprecedented activity certainly contributed to the vernacularisation, and the dissemination of medicine in different kinds of works and different text types. The texts examined in the study are representative of their authors’ effort to expand medical knowledge and to define medicine as an independent science based on strict observation, as well as to establish intelligibility within and outside the disciplinary discourse community.History & Philosophy Of Scienceculturaletteraturamedicinascienzauniversitàuniversità di milanocultureliteraturemedicinescienceUniversityUniversity of MilanolittératuremédecineUniversitéUniversité de MilanenglishmedicinelanguagecommunicationHistory & Philosophy Of Scienceculturaletteraturamedicinascienzauniversitàuniversità di milanocultureliteraturemedicinescienceUniversityUniversity of MilanolittératuremédecineUniversitéUniversité de MilanLonati Elisabetta905072FR-FrMaCLEBOOK9910220010303321Communicating Medicine2024296UNINA02075nam 22004693 450 991014944150332120241223120546.0(CKB)2670000000613206(BIP)052187439(BIP)054236737(MiAaPQ)EBC31854907(Au-PeEL)EBL31854907(OCoLC)1124513197(EXLCZ)99267000000061320620241223d2015 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierThe Detective and Mr. Dickens Being an Account of the Macbeth Murders and the Strange Events Surrounding Them1st ed.New York :Diversion Publishing Corp.,2015.©2015.1 online resource (300 p.) ill9781682301371 1682301370 9781626817326 1626817324 [A] delightful hot toddy of a winter's read. --LA TIMES It was the best of times, it was the worst of crimes in this delightful Dickensian romp, with the canonical author teaming up with a famous upstart to solve a devilish murder.
