Beskrivning
Tracing Hospital Boundaries explores, for the first time, how the forces of both integration and segregation shaped hospitals and their communities between the eleventh and twentieth centuries in Europe, North America and Africa. Within this broad comparative context it also shines a light on a number of case studies from Southeastern Europe.The eleven chapters show how people’s access to, and experience of, healthcare institutions was affected by social, cultural and economic, as well as medical, dynamics. These same factors intersected with developing healthcare technologies to shape hospital design and location, as well as internal policies and practices. The volume produces a new history of the hospital in which boundaries – both physical and symbolic – are frequently contested and redrawn.Contributors are Irena Benyovsky Latin, David Gentilcore, Annemarie Kinzelbach, Rina Kralj-Brassard, Ivana Lazarević, Clement Masakure, Anna Peterson, Egidio Priani, Gordan Ravančić, Jonathan Reinarz, Jane Stevens Crawshaw, David Theodore, Christina Vanja, George Weisz, and Valentina Živković.

“This creative, insightful collection can be a useful resource in graduate and upper-level seminars on historical methodology and public health, and may also be used as supplementary reading for appropriate regional and global studies courses.Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates. Graduate students and faculty.”-J. P. Davis (Hopkinsville Community College), CHOICE, Vol. 58 (8), 2021.“Tracing Hospital Boundaries encompasses both understandings of the hospital within its very broad chronological sweep, from the eleventh to the twentieth century. Alongside the significant new research on hospitals, their patients, and their contexts presented in its individual chapters, a major contribution of the volume is how it allows historians of the medieval, early modern, and modern hospital to learn from each other. […]This richly researched and wide-ranging volume advances our understanding of the hospital in all its meanings and associations.”-Leslie Topp (Birkbeck, University of London), Isis, Vol. 112 (3), 2021, 590-591 pp.
