Hardy the Physician

Autor Tony Fincham
en Limba Engleză Hardback – sep 2008
Was Thomas Hardy clinically depressed or just syphilitic? Was Egdon Heath imbued with melancholic vapours? And does this explain why many of his characters suffered from depression, took their own lives or developed homicidal tendencies? This book by a rural GP explores these and many other medical issues in Hardy's life and works.

'Fincham's critique displays a wide and deep knowledge about medical practices...This type of inter-disciplinary approach, particularly integrating literature and the sciences, is a worthwhile addition to Hardy studies.' - JoAnna Stephens Mink, The Hardy Association
