요약This cultural biography of Mary Putnam Jacobi (1842–1906) illustrates how American women came to embrace scientific principles in the post-Civil War period. Historians of women and medicine have focused on how nineteenth-century men of medicine worked against the interests of women by pathologizing the female body. This study offers an alternative perspective by examining how Mary Putnam Jacobi adopted science as a cultural authority and enrolled medicine in the campaign for women's rights. Ultimately, this project provides a gendered perspective to the stories of secularization and medicalization in American life, and shows how American women moved from the “cult of true womanhood” in Victorian America to “scientific motherhood” in the early twentieth century.
요약This project is the first scholarly treatment of Jacobi as a starting point for studying the relationship between political activism and the production of medical knowledge by women. Mary Putnam Jacobi was the most influential woman doctor of her time, broadly educated in New York, Philadelphia, and Paris, and widely published in the most recognized American medical journals. Working in New York City for almost thirty years, she supported and put into practice the main tenets of scientific medicine. Jacobi was also an adamant social activist who worked on behalf of women's rights, suffrage, and education. My study ties this activism to her scientific inquiry, showing how Jacobi's social experience, political interests, and philosophical positivism shaped her theories on menstruation, hysteria, and physiology. It also illustrates how she applied science to issues of faith and social equality. Jacobi's life and work make a telling case for the role of gender in debates over “good science” and in the making of scientific medicine in the nineteenth century.
