In A Refuge of Cure or Care: The Sensory Dimensions of Confinement at the Worcester State Hospital for the Insane, Madeline Kearin Ryan examines the therapy model of the nineteenth-century asylum. Using the Worcester State Hospital as a case study, Kearin Ryan analyzes the institution's methodology of targeting patients' minds through their senses, which the administration believed could cure insanity.
Madeline Kearin Ryan is project development librarian at the Worcester Historical Museum.
