Les représentations modernes du corps
The Kiln, the Alembic, and the Clockwork. Early Modern Representations of the Body and its Changing Matter
International Summer School
Pisa, 8-10 August 2018
Organised by Fabrizio Bigotti & Fabiola Zurlini for the Centre for the Study of Medicine and the Body in the Renaissance (CSMBR) in cooperation with Fondazione Comel–Institutio Santoriana, University of Padua and Studio Firmano for the History of Medicine and Science
Confirmed Speakers:
Vivian Nutton (First Moscow State Medical University)
Hiro Hirai (Radboud University)
Fabrizio Bigotti (University of Exeter)
Fabio Zampieri (University of Padua)
Fabiola Zurlini (Studio Firmano for the History of Medicine and Science)
The Summer School will explore how representations of the body and its functions changed from antiquity to the early modern period and how technology altered the perception of what we are as human animals. By adopting three of the most iconic analogies ever used in the history of medicine, The Kiln, the Alembic, and the Clockwork will explore the early modern imagery of the body, in connection to the methods of investigation and its overlapping with disciplines such as alchemy and astronomy. Particular attention will be devoted to processes such as the 'combination and the concoction of humours' (the Kiln), 'distillation, spirits refinement and perspiration' (the Alembic), and the 'mechanical action of innate heat' (the Clockwork) whilst considering, for each analogy, the visual impact it exerted on the Renaissance and early modern representations of human physiology.
The summer school is directed to undergraduates, postgraduates as well as PhD students wishing to deepen their knowledge of the history of medicine and its connection to other disciplines of knowledge in the early modern period. Sources and papers will be pre-circulated in order for attendees to engage fruitfully in conversation with speakers and in a roundtable at the end of each day.
The location of the event is the outstanding DOMVS COMELIANA in Piazza dei Miracoli (Pisa). The provisional programme of the event is already available at csmbr.fondazionecomel.org.
Registration fee to attend the Summer School is €244 and includes the cost of all breaks and lunches. Payment can be made directly to Fondazione Comel via Bank Transfer with the specification "CSMBR 2018 " by the registration deadline of Saturday 30th June 2018. For information and details please contact csmbr@fondazionecomel.org or f.bigotti@exeter.ac.uk
Santorio Fellowship 2018
The International Summer School runs along with the 2018 edition of the Santorio Fellowship for Medical Humanities and Science, which will be advertised separately. Selected winners will attend the Summer School for free and will receive a travel grant of €300. Applicants must send a Cover Letter, a copy of their CV (2 pages max.) and a Referee Letter to santoriofellowship@fondazionecomel.org by the 30th of June 2018.

La circulation de la pénicilline en Espagne
María Jesús Santesmases
Palgrave Macmillan
2018
ISBN 978-3-319-69717-8
This book reconstructs the early circulation of penicillin in Spain, a country exhausted by civil war (1936–1939), and oppressed by Franco’s dictatorship. Embedded in the post-war recovery, penicillin’s voyages through time and across geographies – professional, political and social – were both material and symbolic. This powerful antimicrobial captivated the imagination of the general public, medical practice, science and industry, creating high expectations among patients, who at times experienced little or no effect. Penicillin’s lack of efficacy against some microbes fueled the search for new wonder drugs and sustained a decades-long research agenda built on the post-war concept of development through scientific and technological achievements. This historical reconstruction of the social life of penicillin between the 1940s and 1980s – through the dictatorship to democratic transition – explores political, public, medical, experimental and gender issues, and the rise of antibiotic resistance.
Les sources de l’histoire des sens
Quelles sources pour l’histoire des sens ?
Appel à communications
Atelier du XIXe siècle de la Société des études romantiques et dix-neuvièmistes
organisé par Érika Wicky (FNRS/Université de Liège)
21 septembre 2018
Fondation Biermans-Lapôtre
Cité internationale universitaire, Paris
PRESENTATION
S’inscrivant dans le prolongement du Material Turn, mais également redevable de l’histoire du corps et de celle des sensibilités, l’histoire des sens s’ancre toujours plus au cœur de l’actualité de la recherche sur le XIXe siècle. De même que l’histoire de la culture visuelle, qui a souvent été comprise comme une histoire du regard, elle étudie la signification et les fonctions des sens et de la perception sensorielle, également considérés comme une construction culturelle et sociale.
Envisageant les cinq sens comme un système, elle s’intéresse aussi aux rapports de concurrence, de hiérarchie et d’analogie entre les sens. L’histoire des sens a ainsi pour vocation d’étudier les modèles sensoriels en vigueur à différentes époques afin de mesurer la manière dont ceux-ci ont façonné le rapport au monde des contemporains.
Outre ses contributions aux recherches historiques menées dans des domaines connexes (histoire des émotions, de la gastronomie, de l’hygiénisme, etc.), sa capacité à révéler les mécanismes de différenciation rend l’histoire des sens particulièrement utile aux approches transversales telles que les études genre et les études postcoloniales. Enfin, l’histoire des sens est très prisée pour la faculté qu’on lui prête à rendre l’histoire plus vivante et incarnée, plus personnelle aussi, ce dont témoignent, par exemple, les recherches et expériences visant à restituer l’odeur des batailles, menées dans le cadre du centenaire de la Première Guerre Mondiale.
L’histoire des sens est donc caractérisée par l’analyse de sources variées, dont le corpus est d’autant plus difficile à établir que la perception sensorielle reste un phénomène éphémère et individuel, en dépit de ses traits culturels. Le langage et son histoire, tout d’abord, recèlent une multitude d’indices que l’on peut déceler dans des expressions familières (être doté de goût, de tact ou de flair évoque ainsi trois qualités bien distinctes).
Parmi les documents convoqués par l’histoire des sens figurent des traités médicaux ou religieux ainsi que des ouvrages techniques et scientifiques, mais les sources artistiques et littéraires sont souvent privilégiées, car elles peuvent rendre compte efficacement des conceptions attachées aux sens, quoiqu’elles nécessitent une méthodologie spécifique, en raison notamment de leur statut singulier d’œuvre.
La popularité, au XIXe siècle, de l’affiche et du roman, par exemple, les rendent particulièrement à même de modeler et de diffuser largement de telles conceptions. Elles permettent alors à l’historien.ne de retracer et de mesurer les partages sociaux des différentes conceptions du sensible. En outre, le recours à des sources littéraires et artistiques est particulièrement fréquent parmi les dix-neuviémistes dont la période a abondamment questionné le rapport des arts au réel et les enjeux de la perception sensorielle dans la création.
Il s’agira, lors de cette journée d’étude, d’interroger cette multiplicité des sources et le recours tout particulier qu’ont les historien.ne.s des sens aux sources artistiques et littéraires, mais aussi de voir comment l’histoire de l’art, la musicologie, les études théâtrales et littéraires convoquent les questions spécifiques de l’histoire des sens pour enrichir leurs analyses. La nécessité de croiser les sources pour approcher la connaissance du sensible conduit à composer des approches pluridisciplinaires. Les contributeur.rice.s seront donc invité.e.s à partager leur expérience de manière à dégager des éléments méthodologiques et critiques pour établir l’histoire des sens au XIXe siècle.

Au temps de Galien
Au temps de Galien, un médecin grec dans l’empire romain
Exposition
Du 26 mai au 2 décembre 2018
Musée royal de Mariemont- Belgique
En suivant la vie du médecin grec Galien de Pergame (129 - env. 216 ap. J.-C.) comme fil conducteur, l’exposition se propose de décrire les pratiques médicales, pharmacologiques et sanitaires de l’empire romain aux premiers siècles de notre ère.
Commissariat scientifique : D. Gourevitch , V. Boudon-Millot , A. Verbanck-Piérard (Musée royal de Mariemont)
Galien est un homme de son temps. Les écrits prolifiques du célèbre praticien, ses centres d’intérêt très variés, ses voyages et l’ampleur de sa clientèle permettent de traiter de nombreux thèmes et nous offrent un parcours géographique et sociologique autour de la Méditerranée sous la Pax Romana.
Vingt ans après l’exposition Au temps d’Hippocrate. Médecine et société en Grèce antique, qui avait connu un réel succès à Mariemont, l’actuel projet Au temps de Galien soulignera l’évolution thérapeutique et anatomique, mais également la constance de la pharmacopée et du système des quatre humeurs, pendant les sept siècles qui séparent Hippocrate, « le Père de la Médecine », et Galien « le Prince de la Médecine ».
La réflexion autour de l’œuvre de Galien, de ses questionnements et de sa postérité permettra d’apprécier, sans anachronisme, quels furent effectivement son apport et son rôle, non seulement de son vivant, depuis les gladiateurs de Pergame jusqu’aux empereurs de Rome, mais aussi dans l’histoire des sciences et dans notre actualité.

La stimulation cérébrale profonde
The Pleasure Shock: The Rise of Deep Brain Stimulation and Its Forgotten Inventor
Lone Frank
Hardcover: 320 pages
Publisher: Dutton (March 20, 2018)
Language: English
ISBN-13: 978-1101986530
The technology invented by psychiatrist Robert G. Heath at Tulane University in the 1950s and '60s has been described as one of "the most controversial yet largely undocumented experiments in US history"--controversial to us because Heath's research subjects included incarcerated convicts and gay men who wished to be "cured" of their sexual preference; controversial in its day because his work was allegedly part of MKUltra, the CIA's notorious "mind control" project. As a result, Heath's cutting-edge research and legacy were put under lock and key, buried in Tulane's archives. The ethical issues raised by his work have also been buried: This very same experimental treatment is becoming mainstream practice in modern psychiatry for everything from schizophrenia, anorexia, and compulsive behavior to depression, aggression, anxiety, and even drug and alcohol addiction.
In the first book to tell the full story, the award-winning science writer Lone Frank has uncovered lost documents and accounts of Heath's pioneering efforts. She has tracked down surviving colleagues and patients. And she has delved into the current embrace of deep brain stimulation by scientists and patients alike. What has changed? Why do we today unquestioningly embrace this technology as a cure? How do we decide what is a disease of the brain to be cured and what should be allowed to remain unprobed and unprodded? The Pleasure Shock weaves together biography, neuroscience, psychology, the history of science, and medical ethics to explore our views of the mind and the self. How do we decide whether changes to the brain are acceptable therapy or are simply bias and bigotry?

Marie Curie Fellowships
Call for applications
The European Commission has just opened the call for the Marie Curie Fellowships: https://ec.europa.eu/research/participants/portal/desktop/en/opportunities/h2020/topics/msca-if-2018.html
The goal of the Individual Fellowships is to enhance the creative and innovative potential of experienced researchers, wishing to diversify their individual competence in terms of skill acquisition through advanced training, international and intersectoral mobility.
Individual Fellowships provide opportunities to researchers of any nationality to acquire and transfer new knowledge and to work on research and innovation in Europe (EU Member States and Horizon 2020 Associated Countries) and beyond. The scheme particularly supports the return and (re)integration of European researchers from outside Europe and those who have previously worked here, as well as researchers displaced by conflict outside the EU and Horizon 2020 Associated Countries. It also promotes the career restart of individual researchers who show great potential.

Le handicap dans la révolution industrielle
Disability in the Industrial Revolution. Physical impairment in British coalmining, 1780–1880
David Turner and Daniel Blackie
Publisher: Manchester University Press
Format: Hardcover
Published Date: April 2018
Pages: 264
ISBN: 978-1-5261-1815-8
The Industrial Revolution produced injury, illness and disablement on a large scale and nowhere was this more visible than in coalmining. Disability and industrial society 1780-1880 sheds new light on the human cost of industrialisation by examining the lives and experiences of those disabled in an industry that was vital to Britain's economic growth. Although it is commonly assumed that industrialisation led to increasing marginalisation of people with impairments from the workforce, disabled mineworkers were expected to return to work wherever possible, and new medical services developed to assist in this endeavour. This book explores the working lives of disabled miners and analyses the medical, welfare and community responses to disablement in the coalfields. It shows how disability affected industrial relations and shaped the class identity of mineworkers. The book will appeal to students and academics interested in disability, occupational health and social history.
Postdoctorat sur l'anatomie à Padoue au 16e siècle
Postdoctoral Researcher “Anatomy in 16th-century Padua” (University of Würzburg, Germany)
Call for applications
The Institute for the History of Medicine at the University of Würzburg, Germany, is looking for candidates for the position of a post-doctoral researcher. The successful candidate will be working on a project on the teaching of anatomy and on anatomical demonstrations at the University of Padua, 1540-1600. Research will focus on an analysis of various sets of extensive, handwritten, Latin student notes that have survived from this period, mostly from German students who studied in Padua.
The position will be for three years. The starting date is negotiable. The salary is the standard salary for full-time positions of this kind in Germany. In addition, there are some funds for trips to archives, libraries and conferences and for a student assistant. The successful candidate will be based in Würzburg and will join a group of other researchers working on different aspects of early modern medicine.
Candidates must hold a PhD or an equivalent degree and must be fluent in either German or English or both. Good Latin skills are indispensable. Experience with early modern Latin manuscripts, previous work in the history of medicine or science and some basic knowledge of Italian would be of advantage.
The University of Würzburg seeks to increase the number of its female researchers and especially encourages suitably qualified female researchers to apply. Candidates with a certified, severe physical handycap will be given preference over other candidates with essentially the same qualification for the position.
Please send your application (cover letter, CV and a list of publications only) via email to michael.stolberg@uni-wuerzburg.de.
Application deadline is May 31, 2018. Interviews are expected to take place in June or July.
Those interested may contact Prof. Dr. Dr. Michael Stolberg (michael.stolberg@uni-wuerzburg.de) for more detailed information.

Histoire de l'agression sexuelle et de sa condamnation
The Psychology and History of Sexual Violation and Its Condemnation
Call for Papers
The Fall 2018 Special Feature Issue of Clio’s Psyche
Why has sexual violation by powerful men—covered up, denied, suppressed, and repressed for so long—become a powerful theme in the media since the fall of 2017? Why are men, whose predecessors usually got away with sexual assault, now being exposed, shamed, forced to retire, and sometimes fired for unwanted touching and worse? What makes for this change of standards? Blaming the victim by saying they were “asking for it” is now being challenged. In the Fall 2018 Special Feature Issue we are searching for psychodynamic reasons.
We are looking for articles commenting on the following and other topics, especially from the perspective of psychological/psychoanalytic anthropology:
- sexual privilege/harassment/exploitation/violation in cross-cultural perspective
- cultural childrearing practices and sexual violation around the world
- symbols and myths as they relate to sexual privilege/exploitation
- sexual exploitation/violation of children and teenagers
- blaming victims (as “asking for it”)
- the equivalent of the #MeToo movement outside North America
- defense mechanisms and sexual violation
- thresholds of sexual violation as mental illness
- Why in America and why now have the barriers to making these issues public broken down?
- To what extent is the openness about these abuses related to Donald Trump and the Trump presidency?
- varied responses to charges of sexual abuse, especially denial by authorities
- charges for political purposes and fantasies of sexual intrusion
- cases of a rush to judgment without due process, ruining a person’s career
- sexual abuse and sexual fantasy in the Freudian tradition
- sexual privilege and exploitation in the workplace, in athletics and the military, in medical and therapeutic relationships
- sexual violation in history
- case studies
- contributors to the study of cross-cultural sexual violation – profiles and discussion of their work
We seek articles from 500-2,500 words—including seven to ten keywords, a 100-word abstract, and your brief biography ending in your e-mail address—by May 31, 2018. An abstract or outline by May 1 or before would be helpful. Send them as attached Microsoft Word document (*.docx) files to cliospsycheeditor@gmail.com.
It our style to publish thought-provoking, clearly written articles based upon psychological/psychoanalytic insight; developed with examples from history, current events, and the human experience; and without psychoanalytic/psychological terminology or jargon and without foot/endnotes or a bibliography (use internal citations for quotations). Submissions the editors deem suitable are anonymously refereed.
Clio's Psyche is in its 24th year of publication by the Psychohistory Forum. Please visit our website at cliospsyche.org.

At the center of this interdisciplinary study are court monsters--dwarves, hirsutes, and misshapen individuals--who, by their very presence, altered Renaissance ethics vis-à-vis anatomical difference, social virtues, and scientific knowledge. The study traces how these monsters evolved from objects of curiosity, to scientific cases, to legally independent beings. The works examined here point to the intricate cultural, religious, ethical, and scientific perceptions of monstrous individuals who were fixtures in contemporary courts.

La pratique médicale de Richard Napier
Medicine, Religion, and Magic in Early Stuart England: Richard Napier's Medical Practice
Ofer Hadass
Series: Magic in History
Hardcover: 232 pages
Publisher: Penn State University Press; 1 edition (March 26, 2018)
Language: English
ISBN-13: 978-0271080185
The astrologer-physician Richard Napier (1559-1634) was not only a man of practical science and medicine but also a master of occult arts and a devout parish rector who purportedly held conversations with angels. This new interpretation of Napier reveals him to be a coherent and methodical man whose burning desire for certain, true knowledge contributed to the contemporary venture of putting existing knowledge to useful ends.
Originally trained in theology and ordained as an Anglican priest, Napier later studied astrological medicine and combined astrology, religious thought, and image and ritual magic in his medical work. Ofer Hadass draws on a remarkable archive of Napier’s medical cases and religious writings—including the interviews he claimed to have held with angels—to show how Napier’s seemingly inconsistent approaches were rooted in an inclusive and coherent worldview, combining equal respect for ancient authority and for experientially derived knowledge. Napier’s endeavors exemplify the fruitful relationship between religion and science that offered a well-founded alternative to the rising mechanistic explanation of nature at the time.
Carefully researched and compellingly told, Medicine, Religion, and Magic in Early Stuart England is an insightful exploration of one of the most fascinating figures at the intersection of medicine, magic, and theology in early modern England and of the healing methods employed by physicians of the era.

We construe the notion of skin, or skins, as having multiple meanings, contexts, and sites of enquiry; it could pertain to humans or animals; as a covering or a disguise, revealing or concealing identity, a marker of difference and similarity, race, class, and gender; the mutilated witness to heroic and saintly deeds, or the epitome of idealized beauty; it can be sacred or profane; it may also evoke science, medicine, and the body; skin as writing surface and manuscript; as palimpsest, the scraping away of layers of meaning; it may allude to blank spaces and lacunae; skin as the polychrome surface of a statue, or a fresco; architectural skins and façades; it could relate to surfaces, spaces, and landscapes; to the veneers of civilization and society. We invite papers thatengage these topics, or any related to the fieldof medieval studies.

L'histoire de la psychiatrie en dix traitements
The Drugs That Changed Our Minds: The history of psychiatry in ten treatments
Lauren Slater
Hardcover: 416 pages
Publisher: Simon & Schuster Ltd (March 22, 2018)
Language: English
ISBN-13: 978-1471136887
As our approach to mental illness has oscillated from biological to psychoanalytical and back again, so have our treatments. With the rise of psychopharmacology, an ever-increasing number of people throughout the globe are taking a psychotropic drug, yet nearly seventy years after doctors first began prescribing them, we still don't really know exactly how or why they work - or don't work - on what ails our brains. In The Drugs that Changed Our Minds, Lauren Slater offers an explosive account not just of the science but of the people - inventors, detractors and consumers - behind our narcotics, from the earliest, Thorazine and Lithium, up through Prozac, Ecstasy, 'magic mushrooms', the most cutting-edge memory drugs and neural implants. In so doing, she narrates the history of psychiatry itself and illuminates the signature its colorful little capsules have left on millions of brains worldwide, and how these wonder drugs may heal us or hurt us.

Médecine et magie dans la Norvège moderne
Medicine, Magic and Art in Early Modern Norway: Conceptualizing Knowledge
Ane Ohrvik
Series: Palgrave Historical Studies in Witchcraft and Magic
Hardcover: 302 pages
Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan; 1st ed. 2018 edition (April 2, 2018)
Language: English
ISBN-13: 978-1137467416
This book addresses magical ideas and practices in early modern Norway. It examines a large corpus of Norwegian manuscripts from 1650-1850 commonly called Black Books which contained a mixture of recipes on medicine, magic, and art.
Ane Ohrvik assesses the Black Books from the vantage point of those who wrote the manuscripts and thus offers an original study of how early modern magical practitioners presented their ideas and saw their practices. The book show how the writers viewed magic and medicine both as practical and sacred art and as knowledge worth protecting through encoding the text. The study of the Black Books illuminates how ordinary people in Norway conceptualized magic as valuable and useful knowledge worth of collecting and saving despite the ongoing witchcraft prosecutions targeting the very same ideas and practices as the books promoted.
Medicine, Magic and Art in Early Modern Norway is essential for those looking to advance their studies in magical beliefs and practices in early modern Europe as well as those interested in witchcraft studies, book history, and the history of knowledge.
Les handicapés de la Première Guerre mondiale
War-disabled people: the continuing 1914-1918 war
Call for papers
The Journal ALTER European Journal of Disability Research welcomes all propositions of articles to the issue of war-disabled people during the post WW1 period (1918-1939).It seems necessay to foster the production of new research focused on war-wounded people during the inter-war period at local, national and international levels. A number of issues deserve attention : - Daily life of war wounded people returning to civilian life- Feelings and emotions (resentment, pride, etc.)- The impact of high social visibility of war-wounded people on the social representation of disability- Work, economic and family situation- Gender and physical, psychological and sexual violence- Transnational dimension of organizations mobilization and the making of rehabilitation policies for war wounded.
Presentation
World War I led to six to seven million maimed men at international level. In Europe, governments afterwards had to face an issue which varied in magnitude in different countries. In each of the following five countries, Germany, France, Great Britain, Italy, Russia, more than 800 000 war disabled men had to be provided for, whereas other countries (Austria, Czechoslovakia, Poland, the Serbian, Croatian, Slovenian Kingdom, United States) had to deal with 100 000 to 350 000 men disabled by the conflict. In all these countries, war-disabled men formed organizations whose political positioning was often adversarial (apolitical, communist, social catholic, etc.). Because they had so many members, and because they spoke for war victims, they became influential partners of public authorities. Generally, these associations did not challenge existing social attitudes but prided themselves in promoting the sacrifice of soldiers and their wounded members[1].
Almost all war disabled were men, a majority of them being between 20 to 40 years old, however, there were a few war disabled female nurses too. Many encountered difficulties in returning to their agricultural, artisanal, or industrial jobs. Although they had been in working life for only 10 or 20 years, a number of them were forced to consider another career to provide for their families. To solve the problem of their continuing employment, in many European countries (Austria, Germany, Great Britain, France, Italy) associations demanded that all employers whether public or private were forced to hire a certain proportion of disabled men. Therefore several European countries (Austria, Germany, France, Italy, Poland) adopted legal measures between 1916 and 1924 imposing an obligation on private and public companies to employ war-wounded workers.
The first studies on war wounded people focused on public policies, legislation and mobilization of organizations. More recent studies focus on life experience, on the representation of war disabled in media[2] and on other aspects such as the pain associated with lost limbs[3]. Many of these studies are centered on the local or national level (France[4], Great Britain, Italy[5], Belgium[6], Germany[7], Austria, Poland[8], etc.).Very few collective or individual books[9] plus the recent special issue of the First World War Studies journal[10] allow crossing view points on several national cases. Historians have started adopting transnational perspectives on the matter[11]. This interest is likely to develop considering the increasing exchange of experience and data between associations and medical doctors from different countries.
However, a vast majority of these studies focus on the war and post-war period itself, overlooking mid- and long-term consequences of the war on the life of individuals. It seems therefore necessary to foster the production of new research focused on war-wounded people during the inter-war period at local, national and international levels. A number of issues deserve attention:
- Daily life of war wounded people returning to civilian life
- Feelings and emotions (resentment, pride, etc.)
- The impact of high social visibility of war-wounded people on the social representation of disability
- Work, economic and family situation
- Gender and physical, psychological and sexual violence
- Transnational dimension of organizations mobilization and the making of rehabilitation policies for war wounded.
Submission Guidelines
The journal welcomes all responses to the issue of war-disabled people during the post WW1 period (1918-1939). Articles should be submitted to the Journal ALTER European Journal of Disability Research on the website http://ees.elsevier.com/alter/ before October 31th 2018.
Articles selected after blind peer reviewing will be published in a special issue of ALTER-European Journal of Disability Research in commemoration of WW1, end of 1919.

This book reviews the medical history of Hong Kong, beginning with its birth as a British colony. It introduces the origins of Hong Kong’s medical education, which began in 1887 when the London Missionary Society set up the Hong Kong College of Medicine for Chinese. When the University of Hong Kong was established in 1911, the College became its medical faculty. The faculty has gained distinction over the years for innovative surgical techniques, for discovering the SARS virus and for its contribution to advances in medical and health sciences. This book is meant for general readers as well as medical practitioners. It is a work for anyone interested in Hong Kong or in medical education.
La réanimation contemporaine
Resuscitation, Reanimation, and the Modern World
Call for Papers
5-6 October 2018
Maison Française d’Oxford
Drag the pale victim from the whelming wave,
And snatch the body from the floating grave;
Breathe in the lips re-animating fire,
Till, warm’d to second life, the drown’d respire.
The emergence of societies ‘for the recovery of persons apparently drowned’ within Europe —Amsterdam 1767, Paris 1772, London 1774 — institutionalized a shift in the 18th century, whereby different groups in society became involved with a common concern. The act of resuscitation took on social as well as medical significance: medals were awarded to bystanders who leapt into rivers to save hapless swimmers; attendants were stationed at the edge of hazardous boating lakes; and a variety of life-saving tools were touted to a burgeoning consumer society. These endeavours drew upon broader understandings of breath, air, and the functions of bodies, and also held the potential for spiritual transformation by making bodily ‘resurrection’ a real possibility.
Coinciding with the 200th anniversary of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein (1818), this workshop seeks to explore the social, cultural, political, and medical aspects of reanimation and resuscitation from the early modern period to the present. We will consider how these phenomena have been understood – as miraculous moments, displays of medical prowess, and manifestations of civic responsibility. We will ask if they represent a profound shift regarding ideas about the origin of life as well as its value, connected to the development of a society of risk management. We will also explore how these practices have developed through time in literary, popular, and medical narratives, as new technologies both ‘medicalised’ resuscitation and extended its practice beyond the medical arena. In this way, we hope to gain insight not only into the development and dissemination of medical knowledge but also into broader cultural issues – citizenship, duty, and changing perceptions of what it means to be human.
We ask participants to submit proposals for papers of 20 minutes in length, covering any aspect of reanimation or resuscitation from the early modern period onwards. Possible themes or topics might include:
Please submit a title, abstract of up to 250 words, and brief biography, to marie-aline.thebaud-sorger@history.ox.ac.uk by Sunday 1 July 2018.
Resuscitation, Reanimation, and the Modern World is organised by Dr Marie Thébaud-Sorger (CNRS/Maison Française d’Oxford) and Dr Jennifer Wallis (QMUL). The workshop is free. We are currently seeking funding that we hope will contribute towards travel and accommodation costs for a number of early career researchers and unfunded scholars.
