In 1815, about seventy per cent of people institutionalised because of insanity were being kept in private ‘madhouses’. The opening four chapters detail the emergence of these madhouses and demonstrate their increasing presence in London and across the country during the long eighteenth century. Subsequent chapters deal with specific aspects in greater depth - the insane patients themselves, their characteristics, and the circumstances surrounding admissions; the madhouse proprietors, their business activities, personal attributes and professional qualifications or lack of them; changing treatment practices and the principles that informed them. Finally, the book explores conditions within the madhouses, which ranged from the relatively enlightened to theseriously defective, and reveals the experiences, concerns and protests of their many critics. . | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | 关键词 | Commercial; Treatment and practice; Regulation; William Parry-Jones; Public lunatic asylums; Ray Porter; H | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-41640-9 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-41642-3 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-41640-9Series ISSN 2634-6036 Series E-ISSN 2634-6044 | issn_series | 2634-6036 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2020 |
