En savoir plus sur le livre

Focusing on the historical context of blindness in eighteenth-century Britain, this book explores the evolution of sight correction and eye surgery through the work of pioneers like William Read and Mary Cater. It introduces a new methodology for understanding sight impairment, while also highlighting the voices of the visually impaired, such as Thomas Gills and Priscilla Pointon, who used literature to address societal inadequacies. By examining the philosophical, medical, and economic aspects of blindness, the work reveals how these developments have shaped contemporary perceptions and practices.
