Memorias Antiguas Historiales Del Peru (Classic Reprint)
Author: Fernando Montesinos
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781332766574
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
Excerpt from Memorias Antiguas Historiales Del Peru When this volume was on the point of being printed off, Mr. T. A. Joyce, of the British Museum, discovered among the literary papers of the late Sir Clements Markham a translation of the same work, ready, with Introduction, for the press. With characteristic abnegation and modesty Sir Clements had put on one side his own labours whilst recommending the Council of the Hakluyt Society to issue the translation of a younger man. On this being communicated to Mr. Means he eagerly embraced the idea of having Sir Clements' Introduction placed before his own, and this has been done. On pp. Xlviii-li is given a list of words in the names of Kings and Incas in Montesinos, and on p. Lii a list of Quichua words, both compiled by Sir Clements Markham. The consequent delay in the issue of the volume has, it is hoped, been amply compensated for by the additions.

Medicine and Politics in Colonial Peru
Author: Adam Warren
Publisher: University of Pittsburgh Pre
ISBN: 0822973871
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
By the end of the eighteenth century, Peru had witnessed the decline of its once-thriving silver industry and had barely begun to recover from massive population losses due to smallpox and other diseases. At the time, it was widely believed that economic salvation was contingent upon increasing the labor force and maintaining as many healthy workers as possible. In Medicine and Politics in Colonial Peru, Adam Warren presents a groundbreaking study of the primacy placed on medical care to generate population growth during this era. The Bourbon reforms of the eighteenth century shaped many of the political, economic, and social interests of Spain and its colonies. In Peru, local elites saw the reforms as an opportunity to positively transform society and its conceptions of medicine and medical institutions in the name of the Crown. Creole physicians, in particular, took advantage of Bourbon reforms to wrest control of medical treatment away from the Catholic Church, establish their own medical expertise, and create a new, secular medical culture. They asserted their new influence by treating smallpox and leprosy, by reforming medical education, and by introducing hygienic routines into local funeral rites, among other practices. Later, during the early years of independence, government officials began to usurp the power of physicians and shifted control of medical care back to the church. Creole doctors, without the support of the empire, lost much of their influence, and medical reforms ground to a halt. As Warren’s study reveals, despite falling in and out of political favor, Bourbon reforms and creole physicians were instrumental to the founding of modern medicine in Peru, and their influence can still be felt today.
