Description:
In the early nineteenth century, Edinburgh was the leading centre of medical education and research in Britain. It also laid claim to
a thriving periodical culture, which served as a significant medium
for the dissemination and exchange of medical and literary ideas
throughout Britain, the colonies, and beyond. Literature and Medicine
in the Nineteenth-Century Periodical Press explores the relationship
between the medical culture of Romantic-era Scotland and
the periodical press by examining several medically-trained contributors
to Blackwood’s Edinburgh Magazine, the most influential and
innovative literary periodical of the era.
