Sex, Religion, and the Making of Modern Madness: The Eberbach Asylum and German Society, 1815-1849
Goldberg, Ann (Assistant Professor of History, Assistant Professor of History, University of California, Riverside)
How did insanity move from a religious phenomenon to a medical one? How did class, gender and ethnicity affect the patient's experience and the way psychiatrists diagnosed and treated them? In answering these questions, this volume mines the records of one of Germany's first modern insane asylums.
