Until now, it was believed that the first experience of using female labor in military medicine dates back to the middle of the 19th century, when during the Crimean War of 1853-1856. a detachment of sisters of mercy under the leadership of N. I. Pirogov worked in the theater of military operations. However, some documents indicate that in peacetime, female personnel in domestic military medicine began to be used much earlier.

Military statistics and medical research were closely related over the 19th century. The army not only made use of these new forms of knowledge, but also provided an important institutional setting through the military medicine, which was of crucial importance to medical research in the 19th century. Besides that, Swiss military also played a crucial role in new geographical and geological research, resulting in a series of new mapping projects. This article looks on the ways, in which military context gained influence on scientific research practices in the second half of the 19th century, by analyzing the case of Heinrich Bircher’s work on military recruiting statistics and the endemic goiter. New mapping projects and statistical practices were linked, transforming big parts of the country into pathological spaces. Coming from this point, the article discusses in how far the military context lead to politicizing medical discourses and, furthermore, linked them to discourses of an anthropological crisis, common in many European countries.

The role played by midwives during modernity deserves increased attention. Ethnic and confessional minorities often displayed starkly different patterns in the selection of these instrumental figures. More than that, the differences between the official reports and the community behavior recorded at ground level suggest a major gap between theory and practice. In theory, the province of Transylvania was well provided with medical care, midwives included. Data collected into the Historical Population Database of Transylvania reveals the fact that most women were assisted at birth by handywomen, the traditional, unskilled midwives. A research tool like a historical population database could help the scholars to address the issue of birth medicalisation, starting from the main research question: can we discuss the medicalisation of birth given that more than half of the women assisted in the delivery of just one child?

Nikolay Sklifosovsky was called the acting surgeon of all wars of the 19th century. At the age of 30, he first got into the Austro-Prussian War, which allowed him to gain invaluable experience, after which he volunteered for the front during all the Russian-Turkish campaigns.Participation in military actions allowed him to rise to the rank of general and made Sklifosovsky the founder of modern military field surgery. It was he who first in the world began to use local anesthesia, using cocaine during palatal surgery; he proposed to disinfect instruments and introduced the rules of asepsis and antiseptics. However, his innovative ideas not only contributed to the rescue of hundreds of wounded, but also caused ridicule from colleagues, who used to say things like, you, Sklifosovsky, are so big, but you are afraid of some small bacteria that cannot be clearly discerned. Scientific and practical interests of N.V. Sklifosovsky were not limited to abdominal interventions alone; he successfully performed operations on female genital organs, joints and was very interested in maxillofacial surgery. On Sklifosovsky’s initiative, dentistry was included in the program of university disciplines as an independent science. Despite his undeniable achievements, in life outside the walls of medical institutions, he remained a very simple and courteous person; he never refused to provide medical care to the poor, and sometimes he himself purchased medicine for such patients. Wanting to calm and cheer up the patient before the operation, he never spared his time talking with patients.

In this paper, we analyse features of the grammatical descriptions in Manchu grammar books from the Qing Dynasty. Manchu grammar books exemplify how Chinese scholars gave Chinese names to grammatical concepts in Manchu such as case, conjugation, and derivation which exist in agglutinating languages but not in isolating languages. A thorough examination reveals that Chinese scholarly understanding of Manchu grammar at the time had attained a high degree of sophistication. We conclude that the reason they did not apply modern grammatical concepts until the end of the 19th century was not a lack of ability but because the object of their grammatical descriptions was Chinese, a typical isolating language.

Levantine immigration to Chile started during the last quarter of the 19th century. This immigration, almost exclusively male at the outset, changed at the beginning of the 20th century when women started following their fathers, brothers, and husbands to the New World. Defining the role and status of the Arab woman within her community in Chile has never before been tackled in a detailed study. This article attempts to broach the subject by looking at Arabic newspapers published in Chile between 1912 and the end of the 1920s. A thematic analysis of articles dealing with the question of women or written by women, appearing in publications such as Al-Murshid, Asch-Schabibat, Al-Watan, and Oriente, will be discussed.
