Abstract
Lady Mary Wortley Montagu is sometimes mentioned by both medical and literary historians as the introducer to England of smallpox inoculation. Usually, the story is garbled by confusion with Edward Jenner's later invention, vaccination. Some historians have rejected her claim, arguing that the credit belongs to the medical establishment of the day. So just how much importance has this gifted amateur in the story of medical science?
摘要
玛丽·沃特利·蒙塔古夫人有时被医学和文学史学家提及，认为她是将天花接种引入英国的人。通常，这个故事因与爱德华·詹纳后来发明的疫苗接种混淆而被歪曲。一些历史学家否认了她的说法，认为功劳应归于当时的医学机构。那么，这位有天赋的业余爱好者在医学科学史上究竟有多重要呢？
