Women’s Bodies and Public Health in Poland before and after the Holocaust
Healing Women in Jewish History
This talk explores how Jewish physicians in twentieth-century Poland were concerned with women’s health, mobilizing female bodies to ensure the future of the community. It compares the discourse and the medical practices before and after the Holocaust. New histories of medicine and the body offer a more direct vantage on women’s experiences than traditional approaches mediated through the sources and concerns of men.Go to event
