Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introductory Address, Delivered at the College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York: October 16, 1855 If we are sometimes tempted to think that medicine has, so far, made little progress, it is only because the subject is so complicated and its extent so boundless. The avenues that it opens to us stretch out so far into the future that the space already passed over seems small in comparison. But it is small in comparison only. In every complicated department of human knowledge progress is at first slow and difficult, opposed by obstacles, retarded by unavoidable errors, which must be corrected by subsequent examination. The pioneers of Medicine had no royal road to follow. Their landmarks were few, and easily mistaken. Their route led over intricate passes or through close and tangled thickets. Sometimes they were obliged to cross trembling and insecure morasses and sometimes, withlaborious strokes of the hammer and crowbar. They must force their way through ledges of the solid rock. What wonder is it that they were sometimes misled by false landmarks, and wandered off into impassable wastes, or were misled into devious by-paths, that carried them backward while they thought themselves advancing? Standing now on the eminence to which they have brought us, we can look back and see the windings, and faults, and doublings of their track. But if we had to begin where they begun, and to go over now the same ground, we should commit at least as many errors as they. Let us not suppose, then, because we are sometimes ob liged to discard as error what was a year ago held as truth, that for that reason all previous labors were fruitless, and we are still beginning at the beginning. That is not the case. These errors were only a part of our previous acquisition. They were the unavoidable mistakes, made in first studying an intricate subject; - and by continued perseverance they are successively sifted out, while that which is absolutely true remains behind, slowly but constantly accumulating.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introductory Lecture, Delivered in the College of Physicians and Surgeons of the Upper Mississippi, Session of 1849-50 It is customary with those who desire to keep pace with the progress of reform in medicine, to place themselves in the attitude of apologists for any movement which may be regarded as having a tendency to obstruct this progress; and it may be expected that, in deference to a complaint that the multiplication of Medical Schools has a tendency to impair the dignity of Medical Science, we will favor the profession with the reasons which have impelled us forward in this enterprise.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this compelling, accessible examination of one of America's greatest cultural and literary figures, Robert Leigh Davis details the literary and social significance of Walt Whitman's career as a nurse during the American Civil War. Davis shows how the concept of "convalescence" in nineteenth-century medicine and philosophy—along with Whitman's personal war experiences—provide a crucial point of convergence for Whitman's work as a gay and democratic writer. In his analysis of Whitman's writings during this period—Drum-Taps, Democratic Vistas, Memoranda During the War, along with journalistic works and correspondence—Davis argues against the standard interpretation that Whitman's earliest work was his best. He finds instead that Whitman's hospital writings are his most persuasive account of the democratic experience. Deeply moved by the courage and dignity of common soldiers, Whitman came to identify the Civil War hospitals with the very essence of American democratic life, and his writing during this period includes some of his most urgent reflections on suffering, sympathy, violence, and love. Davis concludes this study with an essay on the contemporary medical writer Richard Selzer, who develops the implications of Whitman's ideas into a new theory of medical narrative.
