{"product_id":"the-face-of-medicine-mary-hunter-9781526118820","title":"The Face of Medicine: Visualising Medical Masculinities in Late Nineteenth-Century Paris","description":"This book examines the overlapping worlds of art and medicine in late-nineteenth-century France. It sheds new light on the relevance of the visual in medical and scientific cultures, and on the relationship between artistic and medical practices and imagery. By examining previously unstudied sources that traverse disciplinary boundaries, this original study rethinks the politics of medical representations and their social impact. Through a focused examination of paintings from the 1886 and 1887 Paris Salons that portray famous men from the medical and scientific elite - Louis Pasteur, Jules-Émile Péan and Jean-Martin Charcot - along with the images and objects that these men made for personal and occupational purposes, Hunter argues that artworks and medical collections played a key role in forming the public face of scientific medicine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mary Hunter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1526118823\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781526118820\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/21\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.10w x 0.60d","brand":"Mary Hunter","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48113610260735,"sku":"9781526118820","price":37.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3ea66dc4-e25e-405f-9c6c-4f135b68c91e.jpg?v=1769616144","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-face-of-medicine-mary-hunter-9781526118820","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
