PY - 2012 SP - 41-53 SN - 0035-9149 DO - 10.1098/rsnr.2011.0001 UR - http://rsnr.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/roynotesrec/66/1/41.full.pdf AB - This is a study of how scientific knowledge reached common citizens in nineteenth-century Portugal, using newspapers as the main source. Despite the population's limited access to written material, each leading newspaper might be read by 30 000 people a day in Lisbon. This made newspapers the most widely available vehicle for the diffusion of the latest scientific information to the general public. With a cholera morbus epidemic affecting the second largest Portuguese town and all the northern regions, as well as the Algarve, reports on the course of the epidemic were considered essential. The author bases her study on a database of news about the disease in 1855 and 1856, especially with regard to prevention and treatment. ER -
