Body Language: Medicine and the Eighteenth-Century Comic Novel. Kathleen Tamayo Alves
Body Language examines the complex intersections of British eighteenth-century comic fiction and medical discourse. By engaging medical writings of renowned and widely-read physicians of the Enlightenment such as John Freind, Thomas Sydenham, Albrecht von Haller, John Whytt, and William Cullen, with novels of humor by Henry Fielding, Tobias Smollett, Laurence Sterne, and Charlotte Lennox, Alves explains how medicine shaped comic language by dramatizing female-specific phenomena like menstruation, hysteria, nervous disorders, and pregnancy. In these novels, the medical belief that women are incapable of bodily self-regulation becomes an imperative for policing women’s bodies and highlights the enduring shortcomings of patriarchal systems. Ultimately, these comic representations offer a counternarrative of women’s bodies, agency, and selfhood, exposing masculine anxieties about the effectiveness of marriage to regulate women’s sexuality.
Published by Bucknell University Press. Distributed worldwide by Rutgers University Press. 1. Leaky Writings and Leaky Bodies in Henry Fielding’s Shamela (1741) and Tobias Smollett’s Humphry Clinker (1771)
2. Hysterical Language and Desiring Women in Henry Fielding’s Joseph Andrews (1742) and Tom Jones (1749)
3. The Maternal Body and Obstetric Authority in Laurence Sterne’s Tristram Shandy (1759) and Tobias Smollett’s Peregrine Pickle (1751)
4. Romantic (Mis)Readings and Nervous Sympathy in Charlotte Lennox’s The Female Quixote (1752)

A complication with knowledge production is that we are always in the process of learning and are equally in the process of forgetting what we have learned. To me, this makes the role of communal knowledge production all the more urgent bc the most effective scholarship emerges collectively.
