Overview

Elena Fratto examines the relationship between literature and medicine at the turn of the twentieth century. She traces how writers including Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, and Bulgakov responded to medical and public health prescriptions, arguing that they provide alternative ways of thinking about the limits and possibilities of human agency and free will.
