Title: Walking the Paris hospitals
Description: This work is based on an untitled, anonymous manuscript diary, containing a vividly written and often lively sequence of daily entries, covering the period from 1 November 1834 to 30 June 1835. It encompasses an academic year, in this case spent in Paris. Explicit details of authorship are absent but internal evidence throughout indicates that the author was a final year medical student from the University of Edinburgh.
