    A SENTENCE OF DEATH HAD BEEN PASSED ON HER: REPRESENTING THE EXPERIENCE OF BREAST CANCER IN BRITAIN THROUGH THE LONG NINETEENTH CENTURY by APRIL NICOLE PATRICK Bachelor of Arts, 2002 Schreiner University Kerrville, Texas Master of Arts, 2007 University of Houston Houston, Texas Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of AddRan College of Liberal Arts Texas Christian University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy May, 2011 Copyright by April Nicole Patrick 2011 ii PREFACE Mary Wilson Carpenter begins Health, Medicine, and Society in Victorian England (2010) with the following thought: “The questions we ask, the subjects we choose to research, and the way we put together our findings about the past, all proceed from our position in the present” (1). Though I began this project two years before the publication of Carpenter’s text, these words accurately describe the way my own position connects with the many texts I have recovered. It seems only fair to identify that connection at the outset of the discussion and to detail the way this project has developed, particularly because this work centers on the recovery and prioritization of narratives and experiences. Throughout the process of conceiving, researching, writing, and editing this dissertation, the question I was most commonly asked was a form of, “Was there even breast cancer in the nineteenth century?” This also took the form of questions like, “Did they call it breast cancer?” or “Did people really talk about it?” The answer to these questions, in all of their forms, is yes, as the chapters that follow will demonstrate, but first I want to consider the second most commonly asked question over these years of work: “How did you end up writing about something so depressing?” I’ve learned to laugh this off with a quick remark about my work growing less depressing after several years of interest in death, elegy, obituary, and theories of cultural memory and trauma.

Su hermano había nacido antes que Adrián, siendo el mayor de todos los hermanos.—RAFAEL MARTÍNEZ. A WORK BY ESTEBAN JORDAN: AN EFFIGY OF A SPANISH KNIGHT OF THE ORDER OF ST JOHN* Days before the outbreak of First World War, a fine alabaster effigy of a Knight of the Order of St John in Jerusalem was presented to the Most Venerable Order of St John in Clerkenwell, just outside the boundaries of the City of London. The donor was Sir Guy Francis Laking, Bart., Keeper of the London Museum, an emi- nent scholar, best known for bis catalogues of the arms and armour in the Wallace Collection, at Windsor, and the Armoury in Malta. He had "always had the greatest interest in anything relating to the Order of the Knights of St John of Jerusalem, more especially since (his) work at Malta'''. He offered to buy the effigy for the Order, having seen it on exhibition at the Spanish Galleries of the dealer Lionel Harris in Conduit Street', where it had been imported from Spain, "in one consign- ment together with 24 other cases of stonework'. After some discussion as to where exactly it should be housed, the effigy was placed against the North wall of the twelfth-centuty crypt in the Priory Church of St John in Clerkenwell, of which the Order of St John was Patron.

CLAP.IIt0 LnllTED, EDINBURGH PREFACE THE main purpose of this volume of the letters of the Empress Frederick has been to allow the Empress's own words to provide the answer to those cruel and slanderous accusations from which her memory has suffered. For this reason the running commentary necessary to enable the reader to understand the letters has been reduced to the minimum. These letters, while fairly representing the thoughts and opinions of the Empress, give but a very imperfect picture of her character and personality. An advanced thinker of strong liberal views, she hesitated to express such views freely to Queen Victoria, to whom she knew they would not be acceptable. Moreover, the Empress's many artistic activities had associated her with the world of art, where she had imbibed modern theories which did not appeal to the Queen. Consequently the letters hardly refer to those aesthetic tastes which were an outstanding feature in her life. The material available not being sufficient for a com­ plete biography, the best course seemed to be to concen­ trate entirely on the letters.
