Abstract

Cholera was the emblematic disease of the nineteenth-century Europe. This article explores the cultural ramifications of cholera by concentrating on the ways in which public discourse participated in circulating information on the disease. It focuses on the reuse of texts about cholera in the Finnish press from 1860 to 1920. The most difficult cholera epidemics in Finland were the first ones in the 1830s and 1850s, and the number of casualties dropped significantly towards the end of the century. At the same time, however, cholera was discussed more than ever, and there was the rising curve of the references to cholera from the 1860s onwards. In Finland, the public discourse on cholera was also entangled with the rising nationalism towards the end of the nineteenth century.

传染媒介:霍乱与芬兰报刊文本的流通,1860–1920
霍乱是19世纪欧洲的象征性疾病。本文通过关注公共话语参与传播霍乱信息的方式,探讨霍乱的文化影响。它关注的是1860年至1920年芬兰媒体对霍乱文本的重复使用。芬兰最困难的霍乱疫情发生在19世纪30年代和19世纪50年代,伤亡人数在本世纪末大幅下降。然而,与此同时,人们对霍乱的讨论比以往任何时候都多,从19世纪60年代起,霍乱的提法呈上升趋势。在芬兰,关于霍乱的公共讨论也与19世纪末日益高涨的民族主义纠缠在一起。
