Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. A groundbreaking new book about the misogynistic nineteenth century obsession with hysteria, focusing on the renowned Salpetriere Hospital in Paris.'Fascinating and beautifully written' Guardian'Fascinating . gives us a disturbing insight into the extent to which doctors, patients and diseases, both then and now, are products of their time' Sunday TimesIn 1862 the Salpetriere Hospital in Paris became the epicenter of the study of hysteria, the mysterious illness then thought to affect half of all women.There, prominent neurologist Jean-Martin Charcot's contentious methods caused furore within the church and divided the medical community. Treatments included hypnosis, piercing and the evocation of demons and, despite the controversy they caused, the experiments became a fascinating and fashionable public spectacle.Medical Muses tells the stories of the women institutionalised in the Salpetriere. Theirs is a tale of science and ideology, medicine and the occult, of hypnotism, sadism, love and theatre. Combining hospital records, municipal archives, memoirs and letters, Medical Muses sheds new light on a crucial moment in psychiatric history. A groundbreaking new book about the nineteenth century obsession with hysteria, focussing on the renowned Salpetriere Hospital in Paris.
