Abstract

Between the years 1875 and 1889, extraordinary changes occurred in the practice of medicine and surgery. This article reviews these changes and attempts to understand something of the science of surgery as well as its place in American medicine during these years. The essay uses the two paintings by Thomas Eakins, The Gross Clinic of 1875 and The Agnew Clinic of 1889, as endpoints to the period of discussion.

摘要

在1875年至1889年期间，医学和外科手术实践发生了非凡的变化。本文回顾了这些变化，并试图了解这一时期外科科学及其在美国医学中的地位。本文以托马斯·伊肯斯的两幅画作——1875年的《格罗斯诊所》和1889年的《阿格纽诊所》——作为讨论时期的端点。
