This course surveys the relationship between women and medicine from Antiquity to the present. We will examine the interrelated histories of women as medical practitioners, patients and objects of medical knowledge. We explore the different ways women functioned as health care providers, as domestic healers, nurses, midwives, and physicians. At the same time, we discuss how women experienced illness in the past and the expectations and norms that shaped their illness experiences. Finally, we look at medical knowledge about women and how ideas about gender have been constructed by the medical professions.
