If this Fever, when it happens in Acute Consumptions, and is very ievere, is not taken off by proper and timely Means, as it certainly may, it continues, as Morton has accurately and truly noted, for seven pays, in which compass of Time, if the Patients are not carried off by it, it ceases of its own accord 5 the inflam'd Tubercle or Tubercles of the Lungs chat produc'd 4t, being in that Space ripened and broke; from which time we may date the third Degree of a Consumption: But in Chropick or lingering Consumptions, where the Tubercle or Tubercles are inflamed in a less Degree, and tend but slowly to Supr puration and Ripeness, the Inflammatory Fever, that depends on them, continues to molest the Patients much longer, sometimes for a Month or more, but is then much milder, and all its attendant Symptoms are more moderate. From what has been said, the Reader iru'y easily conceive that as often as any of the' Tubercles, Knots or Swellings, that I have mentioned to arise in the giandulous Parts of the Lungs in the first State of a Consumption, happen, through taking fresh Cold, or other Accidents, to be inflamed, and incline to Suppuration, so pften a new Inflammatory Feyer will of course course take place, be join'd to the Hectick, and be more or less severe, according as the Consumption is more or less Acute, and according to the Magnitude and Number of the Tubercles that happen to be inflamed 5 hence it is, that some Consumptive Persons are afflicted with these Inflammatory Fevers two or three times in a Year: For these Tubercles are seldom or never all inflamed together, but whilst some are perhaps already broke, others are inflamed, and others remain in a crude State, whil...

Book Synopsis Consuming Fictions by : Gail Turley Houston
Download or read book Consuming Fictions written by Gail Turley Houston and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this remarkable study, Gail Turley Houston examines the rich interplay of consumption as alimental process, medical entity, psychological construct, and economic practice in order to explore Charles Dickens’s fictional representations of Victorian culture as he presents it in his novels. Drawing from medical, historical, economic, psychoanalytic, and biographical materials from the Victorian period, Houston anchors her work in the belief that if class and gender are fictional constructions, real people’s lives are affected in complex and coercive ways by such constructions. Proceeding chronologically, Houston traces particular patterns throughout ten of Dickens’s major novels: The Pickwick Papers, Oliver Twist, The Old Curiosity Shop, Martin Chuzzlewit, Dombey and Son, David Copperfield, Bleak House, Little Dorrit, Great Expectations, and Our Mutual Friend. Houston maintains that Victorian codes of behavior prescribed for gender and class regarding sexual and alimental appetites were so extreme and complicated that numerous consequent eating disorders and related diseases developed. Ideologies about consumption translated into medically defined consumptions, such as anorexia. Using anorexia and its etiology as representative of an underlying cultural dynamics of consumption, Houston examines anorexia as a deep structure of the Victorian period. Further, consumption as economic process is reflected in the expansion of individual material desires at the expense of the designated body politic. In other words, extravagant consumption occurs in society only if certain groups—usually consisting of lower-class men and women and, in Dickens’s novels, women in general—are severely limited in their consumption. To support her approach, Houston turns to Rita Felski’s Beyond Feminist Aesthetics, agreeing with Felski’s argument that it is necessary to recognize the complex dialectics that take place between the individual and society. Not only does culture construct human beings, but human beings also construct culture. Felski’s theory aids Houston in emphasizing that Dickens not only influenced but was also greatly influenced by the Victorian dynamics of consumption. In fact, Houston argues that while Dickens dismantles Victorian ideologies about class and hunger by demonstrating the unnaturalness of expecting one class to starve so that another might gluttonize, he nevertheless accepts and perpetuates the Victorian identification of woman as the self-sacrificing, always-nurturing "angel in the house" without need of nurture herself. This extraordinary book will appeal to literary scholars, as well as to scholars in the social sciences, history, humanistically oriented medicine, and women’s studies.

Download or read book Spitting Blood written by Helen Bynum and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Few diseases have been more inextricably linked with our past than tuberculosis. The ancient Greeks called it phthisis or consumption, names still familiar in the early twentieth century. They knew that coughing up or spitting of blood were bad signs. Through the Medieval Period to the modern day, Helen Bynum explores the history and development of TB throughout the world, touching on the various discoveries that have emerged about the disease, and focusing on the clinical and experimental approaches of Rene Laennec (1781-1826) and Robert Koch (1842-1910). Therapies included miraculous touching, bleeding, travel, vaccines, sanatoria, open-air therapy, and surgery, although none proved successful. A real cure finally arrived after World War II, with anti-tuberculosis drugs, characterizing a new optimism about science, health, and society. Although concerns about TB faded away in the mid-twentieth century, the disease has now returned with a vengeance. Bynum describes the emerging picture from the World Health Organization of the difficulties in managing new drug-resistant forms of the disease that have established themselves in the developing world, and in poorer parts of large cities worldwide. The story of tuberculosis, it seems, is far from over."--
