Contagion, isolation, and biopolitics in Victorian London
Newsom Kerr, Matthew L.

Contagion, isolation, and biopolitics in Victorian London[electronic resource] /by Matthew L. Newsom Kerr. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2018. - xvii, 370 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

1. Isolation, Liberalism, Biopower -- 2. The Victorian Plague Town -- 3. Persons Out of Place: Seclusion and Scandal in the Workhouse Hospital -- 4. Sanitary Citizens: Masculinity, Consent, and Franchise -- 5. Machines of Security: Architecture, Geography, and Metropolitan Governance -- 6. Drawing Circles around Smallpox Hospitals: Cartography, Calculation, and Surveillance -- 7. Isolation Within Isolation: The Public and Personal Politics of Hospital Infection.

This book is a history of London's vast network of fever and smallpox hospitals, built by the Metropolitan Asylums Board between 1870 and 1900. Unprecedented in size and scope, this public infrastructure inaugurated a new technology of disease prevention--isolation. Londoners suffering from infectious diseases submitted themselves to far-reaching forms of surveillance, removal, and detention, which made them legible to science and the state in entirely new ways. Isolation on a mass scale transformed the meaning of urban epidemics and introduced contentious new relationships between health, citizenship, and the spaces of modern governance. Rich in archival sources and images, this engaging book offers innovative analysis at the intersection of preventive medicine and Victorian-era liberalism.
