Nature Displayed: Gender, Science and Medicine 1760-1820

Autor L. J. Jordanova
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 feb 1999
A collection of essays - including 3 that have never been published before - by one of the leading figures in cultural history. Professor Jordanova examines and reinterprets the writings of eighteenth-century thinkers and, in the process, sheds light on contemporary views on issues such as motherhood, sexuality, the body, art and medicine. The volume includes some of the author's most controversial and pioneering work, all the pieces have been revised in the light of the latest historiography and much of the material is published here for the first time.

Descriere

 Nature Displayed brings together in a single, illustrated volume the key writings by one of the leading figures in cultural history. Professor Jordanova examines and reinterprets texts and images from the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, and, in the process, sheds light on contemporary attitudes to femininity and masculinity, child-rearing, health and hygiene and knowledge of nature. The book includes some of the author's most controversial and pioneering work. All previously published pieces have been revised and much of the material is published here for the first time.
