About this book
This handbook provides an overview of an extremely topical field of research. Its starting point is literature, and its contributions examine the most important theoretical and methodological approaches to this field. They look at pertinent genres and media, from the ancient observatio to the postmodern autobiography, and present literary images of disease and discourses of knowledge in their historical chronology.
