The Citizen-patient in Revolutionary and Imperial Paris
Author: Dora B. WeinerPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 472
Book Description
In The Citizen-Patient in Revolutionary and Imperial Paris, Dora B. Weiner examines the experiences of the sick and handicapped indigent men, women, and children in Paris during the French Revolution and empire. Weiner argues that significant groups of Revolutionary physicians and reformers interpreted equality to include every citizen's right to health care. These reformers faced political, religious, and professional opposition, and daunting problems of funding. And they needed the participation of the poor as "citizen-patients", patients with both rights and duties, who acted as responsible partners in the pursuit and maintenance of public and personal health. Integrating the social history of medicine into the general history of the French Revolution, this book adds a new, medical facet to the meaning of equality while broadening the medical history of the Revolution by paying attention to the social history of the patient.
