Student notes from medical lectures by Benjamin Rush, undated

The volumes contain student notes on a course of medical lectures given by Dr. Benjamin Rush (1746-1813) while he was Professor of the Institutes of Medicine and Clinical Practice at the University of Pennsylvania Medical School, likely in circa 1800-1813. The notes indicate Rush often referenced the works or teachings of contemporaries such as Scottish physicians William Cullen, John Brown, John Gregory, and Robert Whytt, and Dutch physician Herman Boerhaave. He frequently included anecdotes and case histories of his own patients, as well as those of other doctors, to illustrate his lecture topics. He also advised students to take notes on the lectures after they ended to allow them to focus on what they were hearing. Volume 1 includes notes on: physician conduct during visits to patients; human and animal physiology; voice and speech; the nervous system; the five senses; and faculties of the mind. Volume 2 includes notes on: food, the sources of appetite and thirst, and digestion; the lymphatic system; secretions; excretions; theories of nutrition; differences in the minds and bodies of women and men; reproduction; pathology; a table outlining the stages of disease production; “disease and the origin of moral and natural evil”; contagions; the role of food, drink, and clothing in producing disease; worms; hereditary diseases; predisposition to diseases; proximate causes of diseases; and pulmonary conditions. Volume 3 includes notes on: the pulse; therapeutics, such as emetics, sedatives, and digitalis, and treatment of various illnesses like pulmonary consumption, kidney disease, palsy, and rheumatism; diagnosis and prognosis of fever; treatment of intermitting fever; and epidemics including plague, smallpox, and yellow fever, with an emphasis on the yellow fever outbreaks in Philadelphia in 1793 and 1797.

Historia de las guerras civiles de Francia

Las llamadas “Guerras de Religión de Francia” (1562–1598) son recordadas como un periodo clave de principios de la modernidad europea. Constituyeron verdaderas guerras civiles de impacto internacional, que enfrentaron a católicos y hugenotes (los así llamados calvinistas franceses), con el respectivo apoyo de la Liga católica liderado por Felipe II y de la Liga protestante liderada por Isabel de Inglaterra. El libro Historia de las guerras civiles de Francia destaca los personajes y episodios principales de estas guerras, que si bien concluyeron formalmente en 1598 con el edicto de Nantes, autorizando la libertad de cultos en Francia, no impidieron que las violencias político-religiosas se extendieran al menos hasta 1610, con el asesinato del rey Enrique IV.
