Eleven essays by specialists in nineteenth-century French literature and visual culture probe the acts of writing, reading, and viewing corporeal afflictions across the works of medical practitioners, surgeons, pharmacists, novelists, and artists. Tracing scientific discourse in literary narratives and signalling references to fiction in medical texts, the contributions to this interdisciplinary volume invite us to rethink the relationship between the humanities and the medical sciences.Faux Titre422.French literature19th centuryHistory and criticismCongressesMedical literatureFranceHistory19th centuryCongressesLiterature and medicineCongressesMedicine in literatureCongressesDiseases in literatureCongressesElectronic books.French literatureHistory and criticismMedical literatureHistoryLiterature and medicineCongresses.Medicine in literatureDiseases in literature840.9007Leroy Sophie, 1988-900965NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910494622503321Medicine and maladies2013719UNINA
