Описание: An archaeological site that tells a story of structural
violence in medical researchIn 2010, a pit containing over 4,000 human skeletal
elements was discovered at the site of the former Army hospital at Point San Jose in
San Francisco. Local archaeologists determined that the bones,
which were found alongside medical waste artifacts from the hospital, were
remains from anatomical dissections conducted in the 1870s. As no records of
these dissections exist, this volume turns to historical, archaeological, and
bioarchaeological analysis to understand the function of the pit and the
identities of the people represented in it. In these essays, contributors show
how the remains discovered are postmortem manifestations of social inequality, evidence
that nineteenth-century surgical and anatomical research benefited from and
perpetuated structural violence against marginalized individuals.

Local, Regional, and Global Perspectives, edited by Clark Spencer Larsen

Описание: Excavations of medical school and workhouse cemeteries undertaken in Britain in the last decade have unearthed fascinating new evidence for the way that bodies were dissected or autopsied in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. This book brings together the latest discoveries by these biological anthropologists, alongside experts in the early history of pathology museums in British medical schools and the Royal College of Surgeons of England, and medical historians studying the social context of dissection and autopsy in the Georgian and Victorian periods. Together they reveal a previously unknown view of the practice of anatomical dissection and the role of museums in this period, in parallel with the attitudes of the general population to the study of human anatomy in the Enlightenment.

Описание: Between 1850 and 1950, at least 115 women were lynched by mobs in the US. The majority of these women were black. This examines the phenomenon of the lynching of women, which was a much more rare experience than the lynching of men. Of particular importance in this examination is the role of race in lynching, particularly the increase in the number of black lynchings as the century progressed.
