Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a report of a legal trial that took place in Ireland in the 19th century. The plaintiff, a young scholar named Henry William Mathew, sued the defendants, Dr. William Harty and Robert Stokes, for falsely imprisoning him in a lunatic asylum for 52 days. The author provides a detailed account of the trial, including the testimonies of witnesses and the arguments of the lawyers. The book also explores the broader historical and social context of the case, examining the treatment of mental illness in 19th-century Ireland and the role of the medical profession in society. Through the examination of this specific case, the book sheds light on the complex and often controversial relationship between madness and the law.
