Health Services Research Centre: Dirt, disease and danger in 19th-century Dunedin
Seminar
The notion of 'dirt' in the 19th-century New World settlement of Dunedin was constructed from the realities of settlers' lives and articulated in public discourses. This presentation addresses the links between ideas about dirt and disease, and the danger they represented to the creation of a civilised settlement practice, 1900-1940.
