| Summary |
In this book, eleven scholars ""take their stand"" on the controversial issue of disease as it occurs in the context of the American South. Playing on the popular vision of the South as an ill region on several levels, the European and American contributors interpret various aspects of the regional ""sickly"" culture as not so much southern ""problems"", but, rather, southern opportunities, or else, springboards to yet another of the South's cultural revitalizations, ""health"". As Thomas A Ervold Bjerre and Beata Zawadka note in their introduction, the so-called ""Healthy South"" has never be. |
