Liberating Medicine, 1720–1835 - The Enlightenment World
Connolly, Tristanne (University of Waterloo, Canada)

Surgeons justified themselves as skilled practitioners and set themselves apart from the unspecialized, hack barber-surgeons of early modernity. This title presents 17 essays on the relationship between medicine and literature during the Enlightenment.
