It proposes the notion of itineraries of madness, which, intended as an heuristic devise, enables us to examine records of madness across the different spaces where it was disclosed, casting light on the connections between how madness was understood and experienced, the language employed to describe it, and public and private responses devised to cope with it. Placing the emotional experience of the Tuscan families at the core of its analysis, this book stresses the central role of families in the shaping of new understandings of madness and how lay notions interacted with legal and medical knowledge. It argues that perceptions of madness in the eighteenth century were closely connected to new cultural concerns regarding family relationships and family roles, which resulted in a shift in the meanings of and attitudes to mental disturbances"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Mental illness $x History $z Tuscany $z Tuscany $x History $y 18th century. 650 0 $a Mental illness $x Sources. $z Tuscany $z Tuscany $x History $y 18th century $x Sources. 650 0 $a Mentally ill $x History $z Tuscany $z Tuscany $x History $y 18th century. 650 0 $a Mentally ill $x History $z Tuscany $z Tuscany $x History $y 18th century. 650 0 $a Insanity (Law) $z Tuscany $z Tuscany $x History $y 18th century. 651 0 $a Tuscany (Italy) $x Politics and government $y 1737-1801. 651 0 $a Tuscany (Italy) $x Social conditions. 650 2 $a Mental Disorders $x history. 651 2 $a Italy. 650 7 $a Insanity (Law) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01715759 650 7 $a Mental illness $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01016602 650 7 $a Mentally ill $x Care. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01016705 650 7 $a Mentally ill $x Family relationships. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01016728 650 7 $a Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 650 7 $a Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919811 651 7 $a Italy $z Tuscany. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204477 648 7 $a 1700-1801 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Sources. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423900 776 08 $i Online version: $a Labarca, Mariana. $t Itineraries and languages of madness in the early modern world $d Abingdon, Oxon ; New York : Routledge, 2021 $z 9781003058557 $w (DLC) 2021000443 830 0 $a Routledge studies in Renaissance and early modern worlds of knowledge. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231018020326.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C4273718A5B811ECBC4A196C2DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
