Syphilis In Victorian Literature And Culture: Medicine, Knowledge And The Spectacle Of Victorian Invisibility

This book addresses the evident but unexplored intertwining of visibility and invisibility in the discourses around syphilis. This book is the first large-scale interdisciplinary study of syphilis in late Victorian Britain whose significance lies in its unprecedented attention to the multimedia and multi-discursive evocations of syphilis.
