| Zusammenfassung: | "David Livingstone's Zambesi expedition marked the beginning of a series of dynamic medical encounters, exchanges and connections between the British and Malawians. This book explores these entangled histories by placing medicine in the frameworks of mobilities and networks that extended across Southern Africa and beyond. It provides a new approach to the study of medicine and empire, expanding the ways in which medicine and colonialism can be investigated. Drawing on a range of archival, published and oral sources, the book argues that mobility was a crucial aspect of intertwined medical cultures that shared a search for medicines and health in changing conditions. Mobile individuals, ideas and materials played key roles in the networks that facilitated medical practice and the production of medical knowledge. British ideas and practices of healthy living and mobility in South-Central Africa were made and contested in networks that connected professionals and laypeople. For some Malawians, the partly overlapping networks of transatlantic Protestant Christianity, colonial medicine and migrant labour offered new connections and access to medicines, knowledge and expertise - although these networks were also contested and limiting. Through networked studies of spiritual medicine, quinine and colonial interests in Malawian medicines, key aspects of mobile medicine are explored further, revealing new connections between the imperial metropole, colonies, missions and emerging pharmaceutical industries. This book will be of value to scholars and students of history and anthropology of colonialism and medicine, as well as a wider readership interested in the plural search for health in the modern world" --Back cover David Livingstone's Zambesi expedition marked the beginning of an ongoing series of medical exchanges between the British and Malawians.

These networks connected colonial medicine with Protestant Christianity and migrant labour.The book will be of value to scholars and students of history and anthropology of colonialism and medicine, as well as a wider readership interested in the plural search for health in Africa and globally Geschichte 1859-1960 gnd rswk-swf Colonialism and imperialism / bicssc Humanities / History / bicssc HISTORY / Africa / Central / bisach Colonialism & imperialism / History: specific events & topics / History & Archaeology / thema Medical care / Malawi / History Medical care / Africa, Southern / History Missions, Medical / Malawi / History Migrant labor / Colonies / Great Britain / History Medical care / Colonies / Great Britain / History Medizinische Versorgung (DE-588)4038270-9 gnd rswk-swf Malawi (DE-588)4074495-4 gnd rswk-swf Malawi (DE-588)4074495-4 g Medizinische Versorgung (DE-588)4038270-9 s Geschichte 1859-1960 z DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe, Hardcover 978-1-78499-146-3 (DE-604)BV044630698 https://doi.org/10.7765/9781526123893 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext |
