Pre Spanish Flue Manuscript Handwritten Medical Remedy Journal Including Remedies for Influenza Bronchitis Heart Disease Neuralgia et al. 1906-1915

1906218101906. Manuscript medical remedy book from Devonport England compiled between 1903 and 1915 and preserving a striking record of everyday therapeutic practice in the years immediately preceding the global influenza pandemic that would soon devastate Europe. Written in ink in a clear and highly legible hand across 36 pages of a ruled notebook measuring 7.75" x 6.5" the volume gathers dozens of medicinal formulas for ailments ranging from bronchitis neuralgia rheumatism and digestive complaints to deep ulcers eye conditions sore throats winter coughs and childhood illnesses. Particularly notable are repeated entries for "influenza" appearing years before the outbreak retrospectively termed the Spanish Flu revealing how influenza already existed as a familiar and recurring medical threat within Edwardian Britain long before the catastrophic pandemic wave of 1918-1920 transformed it into one of the deadliest public health disasters of the modern era. The notebook therefore captures an important transitional moment in the history of epidemic disease: a period when influenza was treated as a common but serious seasonal illness through localized mixtures tonics expectorants and domestic pharmaceutical preparations rather than through coordinated state medicine or modern antiviral therapies. These entries provide unusually direct evidence of how ordinary practitioners dispensers or caretakers approached influenza treatment in the years immediately before the Spanish Flu pandemic altered both public consciousness and medical infrastructure surrounding contagious respiratory disease. The remedies themselves demonstrate the hybrid world of early twentieth-century medicine where domestic caregiving folk therapeutics and increasingly professionalized pharmacy overlapped. Familiar household substances such as witch hazel and paregoric appear beside pharmaceutical compounds later restricted or abandoned by mid-century medicine. Several preparations include age-specific dosages for children while others focus on strengthening mixtures cough remedies liniments lotions and wound treatments. A handful of entries are dated including one reading "June 29 1903" and another attributed to an individual identified as "A. Wilson." Accompanied by three inserted paper ephemera pieces including an index of herbs and chemicals and two additional recipe slips one bearing a postage stamp from the "Plymouth . Society Dispensing Dept. Fore St. Devonport." The overall character strongly suggests compilation by someone with regular access to a dispensary or chemist environment though not necessarily a formally licensed pharmacist operating instead within the fluid boundary between domestic medical care and industrialized pharmaceutical practice in prewar England. Well rubbed with losses to spine and extremities; interior remains clear and legible with minor foxing. Good overall condition. unknown

Prelude To Spanish Modernism - Fortuny to Picasso

2005026490Albuquerque New Mexico - Dallas Texas: Thne Albuquerque Museum - In Collaboration with - The Meadows Museum Southern Methodist University 2005. Trade Paperback. Very Good/No Dust Jacket As Issued. 12" x 12. Dawson Tom - Design and Composition. 361 Pages. Stiff flexible covers. Book has wear to covers and edges that is difficult to see in the scans. Interior text and illustration pages are near flawless. The second book in a series that presents an overview of the history of Spanish culture through major works of art. A study of the cosmopolitan development of Spanish painting in the latter half of the 19th century and beginning of the 20th century covering the time period between the death of Goya in 1828 and the rise of Picasso. Highlighted are the successful careers of artists whose works rival those of their better-known French British Dutch and German contemporaries. Parallel text in English and Spanish. Full page images. Taste is cyclical. According to an old saying taste is generational as well: that which we like is what our grandparents liked not what our parents or our children would prefer. If this is true it provides a reason for nineteenth-century Spanish cosmopolitan painting's great popularity and admiration by its contemporary audience and for its subsequent falling out of favor in the next generation. It is said that the intelligent connoisseur will want to develop his power of discrimination and his sense of values. In the Humanities mere facts remain colorless without a proper evaluation whether it is an intellectual a moral or an aesthetic one. It has often been said that the standard of a civilization depends to a large degree on the power of discrimination by its leading individuals and in a democracy like ours of the average citizen. Happily for today's audience the talents of such artists as Mariano Fortuny y Marsal and Joaquin Sorolla are once again beginning to be appreciated. Value judgments must not be placed arbitrarily on the representations of a lost and perhaps old-fashioned society but must evolve from a simple reading of the works. Contemporary critics use such terms as breakthrough experiments or innovations in a series of new developments new tendencies and new directions frequently separating these trends from the succession of styles as well as the evolution and continuity of the art of earlier times. Nineteenth-century Spanish artists embraced the new cosmopolitanism of Parisian society enabling them to attract a larger more appreciative clientele but they were also greatly influenced by their native traditions and values openly admitting the influence of Spanish Old Masters like El Greco and Diego de Velazquez. Virtually unrecognized in Spain these artists developed a profound ambivalence toward their native country while achieving international acclaim and financial success elsewhere. Large heavy book 1 ½ inches thick that will incur additional shipping charges to some locations.

Prisoner Without A Name Cell without A Number

19814251-1218201 Small library stamp FLEP Pocket intact BLEP Private Temple Name & Presentation Plate FLEP else content appears as unread and unblemished with grey & oatmeal colored boards displaying no significant surface/edge wear as shown ID Tape at heel of spineThe author who was an Argentine newspaper publisher who dared to criticize his government's policy of cruel repression tell the horrifying story of his arrest imprisonment interrogation and torture before a world-wide campaign won him his freedom in the fall of 1979.Translated from the Spanish by Toby Talbot. He was a relentless champion of human rights and social justice. In the pages of his Beunos Aires newspaper La Opinion the author constantly attacked the Argentine government military services secret police and terrorist gangs for their lawless behaviour - in a period of a few years some 20-30000 Argetnines simply disappeared and have never been heard from again. On one particular day Timerman received threats from both right and left-wing death squads. In April 1977 he was arrested by an extremist faction of the Argeninte army without charges being brought against him. In this heart-felt book he describes his captivity for thirty months - in federal police headquarters in secret prisons finally in his house. Timerman conveys the anguish and despairing sense of losing touch with reality that he felt as a prisoner in solitary confinement. He tells of his defenses against torture: a calculated passivity that preserved his energy and strength and a keen sense of his own identity that kept him from breakdown and madness. prominent in his story is his experience of the fierce totally irrational anti-Semitism with which he was confronted by men who expressed their admiration for the policies of Nazism and grotesquely imagined an imminent third world war.
