Description:
Aldershot, Hampshire: Ashgate, 2004. Hardcover. As New/As New. The Nineteenth Century. x, 202 p. 24 cm. Red cloth hardcover in mylar-covered red, white and gold pictorial dustjacket. Discussion of: lyrical health in Wordsworth and Coleridge; Colderidge's scrofulous dejection; Thomas Beddoes; John Brown; Schelling's medical singing school; the electromagnetic orgasm. Indexed. "By juxtaposing the well-known critical works of Wordsworth and Coleridge with lesser-known works such as Schelling's Yearbooks of Medicine and Thomas Beddoes' medical treatises, Wallen illuminates the central role medicine played in redefining the human being's relationship to society and nature, part of the cultural revolution that began in the nineteenth century."

Description:
Hardback. New. The title chosen by the author is derived from the distinction Socrates makes between his ideal society and the insalubrious regions to which he banishes the mimetic poets. The notion of health only occurs as a singularity. Diseases are plural. Why did Socrates use the polarity of health and disease so forcefully?
