summary:

This article considers the establishment of the category of "hormone-dependent cancers," identified around the middle of the twentieth century as cancers sustained by particular hormones. A comparison of hormonal treatments for prostate cancer and those for breast cancer reveals that the genesis of "hormone-dependent cancer" as a biomedical category relied upon assumptions that cast androgens and estrogens as opposing ends of a gendered hormonal binary of health and disease. In the 1930s, cancer researchers claimed "female sex hormones" (estrogens) exacerbated breast cancer and "male sex hormones" (androgens) prevented it. In the early 1940s, Dr. Charles Huggins applied the opposite logic to the treatment of human prostate cancer, which he determined to be "hormone-dependent." As "hormone dependency" was also recognized in human breast cancer over the subsequent decades, estrogen claimed a prominent place in discussions of breast cancer's causation, diagnosis, and treatment. This close association between estrogen and breast cancer contributed to reinterpretations of both biomedical categories.

摘要:本文探讨了 "激素依赖性癌症 "这一类别的确立,这一类别在二十世纪中叶左右被确定为由特定激素维持的癌症。对前列腺癌和乳腺癌的激素治疗方法进行比较后发现,"激素依赖性癌症 "作为一个生物医学类别,其起源依赖于将雄激素和雌激素作为健康与疾病的性别激素二元对立面的假设。20 世纪 30 年代,癌症研究人员声称 "女性性激素"(雌激素)会加重乳腺癌,而 "男性性激素"(雄激素)则会预防乳腺癌。20 世纪 40 年代初,查尔斯-哈金斯博士将相反的逻辑应用于人类前列腺癌的治疗,他认定前列腺癌是 "激素依赖性 "的。在随后的几十年里,"激素依赖性 "在人类乳腺癌中也得到了认可,雌激素在乳腺癌的致病、诊断和治疗讨论中占据了重要位置。雌激素与乳腺癌之间的密切联系促使人们对这两个生物医学范畴进行重新解释。

summary:

The phrase "disease of civilization" and concomitant lexicons, such as "pathologies of modernization," frequently surface across public and global health discourses. This is particularly the case within the framework of cancer research in Africa. In this article, the authors trace the emergence of these grammars of progress at the beginning of the twentieth century as a biomedical lens through which to analyze and frame cancer in Africa. Arguing with Ann Stoler for a recursive understanding of colonial and postcolonial history, the authors follow in detail the lexical shifts and recursions across the twentieth century, as these grammars move from diseases of civilization to development and modernization. In tracing these lexical shifts, they place them within the broader understandings of Africa and the African body as an other against which Euro-America frames itself.

摘要:"文明病 "这一短语以及 "现代化病症 "等相关词汇经常出现在公共和全球健康论述中。在非洲癌症研究的框架内尤其如此。在这篇文章中,作者追溯了这些进步语法在二十世纪初的出现,并以此作为生物医学的视角来分析和界定非洲的癌症。作者与安-斯托尔(Ann Stoler)一样,主张对殖民地和后殖民历史进行递归式理解,他们详细追溯了二十世纪的词汇变化和递归,这些语法从文明病到发展和现代化。在追溯这些词汇变化的过程中,作者将其置于对非洲和非洲人身体的更广泛理解之中,将其视为欧美人塑造自身的他者。

Henry Daniel and the Rise of Middle English Medical Writing.多伦多:多伦多大学出版社,2022 年。xii + 212 pp.$55.00 ( 978-1-4875-2953-6).活跃于 14 世纪的英国多明我会修士亨利-丹尼尔在医学史上并不家喻户晓,即使在许多中世纪学者中也是如此。然而,正如《亨利-丹尼尔与中古英语医学写作的兴起》一书所展示的那样,丹尼尔和他现存的中古英语医学论文(Liber Uricrisiarum,一部关于尿路镜检查的诊断书,以及所谓的 Aaron Danielis,一部草药书)值得被更多人了解和深入研究--而且不仅仅是医学史学者。亨利-丹尼尔和中古英语医学著作的兴起》由莎拉-斯塔(Sarah Star)编辑,介绍了丹尼尔及其著作的意义,主要侧重于约 1375-82 年间创作和修订的主要著作 Liber Uricrisiarum,同时也考虑了他稍晚的草药论文。丹尼尔是医学白话化的开路先锋,他提醒读者注意这一事实:他明确 [尾页 513]声称自己是第一个用英语撰写尿路镜检查的人。事实上,丹尼尔有意识地选择用英语撰写这些著作--尽管这带来了挑战--目的是 "让更多人了解这一重要知识"(第 4 页)。本编辑集现在 "旨在扩展丹尼尔的项目"(第 4 页),向更广泛的读者,包括中世纪医学史、宗教团体和英语语言的历史学家,以及相邻和交叉学科的学者,如语言学和词汇学、文学研究和手稿研究,开放丹尼尔的作品。所收集的章节正是如此,不仅介绍了 Liber Uricrisiarum 的发展背景和遗产,还展示了其对多个领域的重要性。斯塔在开篇的介绍性章节中阐述了有关丹尼尔及其作品的令人惊讶的学术研究现状:尽管《Liber Uricrisiarum》的写作 "正处于日后蓬勃发展的白话文运动的风口浪尖"(第 3 页),并对中古英语医学写作的发展做出了贡献,但它在很大程度上仍被忽视和研究不足。本卷是多伦多大学亨利-丹尼尔项目的成果,也是《Liber Uricrisiarum: A Reading Edition》的配套书,是介绍丹尼尔、他的著作及其长远意义的重要一步1:1 在斯达的引言之后,全书分为两部分:"背景"(第 1-3 章)和 "文本与遗产"(第 4-7 章)。Faith Wallis 的章节开始了第一部分,通过展示 "尿科学在西方医学中的中心地位"(第 18 页),并回顾了流传的四部重要拉丁尿科学文献,即 Theophilus 的 De urinis、Isaac Judaeus 的 De urinis、Gilles de Corbeil 的 Carmen de urinis 和 Avicenna 的 Canon,建立了 Liber Uricrisiarum 的文本背景。与传统观点不同的是,丹尼尔的文本并非简单地将早期拉丁文资料翻译成中古英语,而是汇集了一系列资料来源的创新性原创学术著作。在下一章中,温斯顿-布莱克继续探讨作者身份的问题,而将重点放在了亚伦-丹尼尔斯的草药上。通过研究丹尼尔对草药的两个主要来源(Macer Floridus 的 De viribis herbarum 和 Henry of Huntingdon 的 Anglicanus Ortus)进行的 "双重翻译"(第 39 页),即从拉丁文翻译成英文,从诗句翻译成散文,布莱克对丹尼尔的草药知识和他的写作策略提供了丰富的见解。第一部分的最后一章从但以理的文本来源转向他的同时代人:彼得-默里-琼斯(Peter Murray Jones)将丹尼尔和他的作品与当时英国的其他医学作家,尤其是那些来自修道会的作家进行了比较。在此过程中,琼斯总结出了 "丹尼尔作品的新颖之处和与众不同之处"(第 63 页),例如他的目标读者群和对尿路镜检查的重视,以及这些作者更广泛采用的方法,包括纳入预后实验来预测病人的预后。[第 2 部分各章将讨论 Liber Uricrisiarum 的文本和......

summary:

This article examines the development of a collaborative model of home-based reproductive caregiving in Ireland from 1900 to 1950, focusing on the interactions of different practitioners in childbirth cases in the domestic sphere. In Ireland the move to obstetrics and trained nursing and midwifery was gradual, complicated by the needs and wants of ordinary women, who were reluctant to give up their trusted care givers and who actively sought to maintain long-standing domestic health care traditions. The result was a hybrid and collaborative model of domestic reproductive health care, requiring the attention of different practitioners, placing them in the same space, and necessitating that they work together. This dynamic and evolving system provided most pregnant, laboring, and postparturient women with essential reproductive care, but it would be overtaken by hospital-based reproductive medicine by around 1950, remaining only in folklore and memory by the late twentieth century.

摘要:本文研究了1900年至1950年间爱尔兰家庭生殖护理合作模式的发展,重点关注不同从业人员在家庭领域分娩案例中的互动。在爱尔兰,向产科、训练有素的护理和助产的转变是渐进的,普通妇女的需求和愿望使这一转变变得复杂,她们不愿放弃自己信任的护理人员,并积极寻求保持长期的家庭保健传统。其结果是形成了一种混合和合作的家庭生殖保健模式,需要不同从业人员的关注,将他们置于同一空间,并要求他们共同努力。这种充满活力、不断发展的系统为大多数孕妇、产妇和产后妇女提供了基本的生殖保健服务,但到 1950 年左右就被以医院为基础的生殖医学所取代,到 20 世纪晚期只停留在民间传说和记忆中。

Despite the myriad indignities and frustrations of this topic, the book is decidedly optimistic about the present and future. For example, the past decade’s opioid epidemic forced public and private groups to rethink how drug addiction should be addressed (p. 4). Swelling public support for cannabis reform is another area where Farber believes the country is nearing an inflection point on its willingness to support the War on Drugs as faithfully as heretofore. One poll said that half of those surveyed said all drug offenses should be treated in civil, not criminal, court. Not unrelated to this changing public sentiment, erstwhile drug hawk Joe Biden on the 2000 campaign trail stated, “No one should be incarcerated for drug use [of any kind]” (pp. 1–2). At the same time, Farber is on solid ground when he adds that these same Americans are uneasy about what might replace the fifty-year war: primum non nocere. Despite these startling new developments toward overdue reassessment and reform, Farber and his colleagues do worry that while public support for the War on Drugs has dwindled, the “sunk costs” of this once-believed eternal war might be enough to keep it in business long past its shelf life. “People continue to worry about the financial and human cost of prisons larded with convicted non-violent drug offenders, but prison guard unions, police unions and fraternal organizations, private contractors, and other economic interests fight to keep the drug offender-to-prison pipeline flowing” (p. 2). Do not read this volume for balance, as the authors would likely agree that they are categorical critics of the War of Drugs. But they are reasonable and empirical critics, which very much bolsters their credibility.
尽管这个话题有无数的侮辱和挫折,但这本书对现在和未来都持乐观态度。例如,过去十年阿片类药物的流行迫使公共和私人团体重新思考如何解决毒瘾(第4页)。法伯认为,公众对大麻改革的支持不断扩大,是该国愿意一如既往地忠实支持禁毒战争的另一个转折点。一项民意调查显示,一半的受访者表示,所有毒品犯罪都应该在民事法庭上处理,而不是刑事法庭。与这种不断变化的公众情绪不无关系,前毒枭乔·拜登在2000年的竞选活动中表示,“任何人都不应该因吸毒而被监禁”(第1-2页)。与此同时,法伯补充道,这些美国人对可能取代五十年战争的东西感到不安:primum non-nocere,这是有根据的。尽管在过期的重新评估和改革方面出现了这些令人震惊的新进展,但法伯和他的同事们确实担心,尽管公众对禁毒战争的支持已经减少,但这场曾经被认为是永恒的战争的“沉没成本”可能足以使其长期处于保质期之外。“人们继续担心关押着被定罪的非暴力毒品罪犯的监狱的财务和人力成本,但监狱警卫工会、警察工会和兄弟组织、私人承包商和其他经济利益集团都在努力让毒品罪犯流入监狱”(第2页)。不要为了平衡而阅读这本书,因为作者可能会同意他们是毒品战争的绝对批评者。但他们是理性和实证的批评者,这在很大程度上增强了他们的可信度。

suls, diplomats, and public health officials involved in a transnational and multilingual exchange of information. Ermus displays considerable skill in conveying the complexity and nuances of these exchanges, particularly in explaining the mixed messages that originated in Marseille and in commenting on the timescales for the circulation of information. If these are the primary contributions of this book, there are also rich and fascinating discussions of themes that emerge from the case studies that it develops, particularly in chapter 5, which explores ideas about the relationship between illicit trade, disease, and violence in colonial contexts. This chapter also assesses the limited concern about smallpox on slave ships in colonial contexts, prompting reflection on the relationship of responses to plague and smallpox in this period. Overall, this impressive study reminds scholars working on the impact of disease of the importance of evaluating the geographical and political breadth of its reach.
suls、外交官和公共卫生官员参与了跨国和多语言的信息交流。埃尔姆斯在传达这些交流的复杂性和细微差别方面表现出了相当的技巧,特别是在解释源自马赛的混杂信息以及评论信息传播的时间尺度方面。如果这些是本书的主要贡献,那么本书发展的案例研究中也会对主题进行丰富而引人入胜的讨论,特别是在第5章中,该章探讨了殖民地背景下非法贸易、疾病和暴力之间的关系。本章还评估了殖民地背景下对奴隶船上天花的有限关注,促使人们反思这一时期对瘟疫和天花的反应之间的关系。总的来说,这项令人印象深刻的研究提醒了研究疾病影响的学者,评估其影响范围的地理和政治广度的重要性。

Ermus displays considerable skill in conveying the complexity and nuances of these exchanges, particularly in explaining the mixed messages that originated in Marseille and in commenting on the timescales for the circulation of information. If these are the primary contributions of this book, there are also rich and fascinating discussions of themes that emerge from the case studies that it develops, particularly in chapter 5, which explores ideas about the relationship between illicit trade, disease, and violence in colonial contexts.
