Abstract
This thesis aims to examine the experience of women regarding
mental disorder in nineteenth-century Ireland. The central argument
of this thesis is based on two claims. First, that mental disorder
was socially constructed in nineteenth-century Ireland, and second,
that the social construction of mental disorder was permeated by
gender and other social phenomena .
