Out of His Mind: Masculinity and Mental Illness in Victorian Britain - Gender in History
Amy Milne-Smith
In a society that defined manhood as a mastery of self-control, the madman stood as a horrifying example of what could go wrong. Out of His Mind is a socio-cultural study of the madman in Victorian society; through in-depth case studies and broad surveys of emergent trends it explores popular anxieties about health, gender, and modern life. -- .
