Scope and Content
The collection consists of tens of thousands of post-1801 theses (3,097.5 linear feet) in multiple languages from leading medical schools throughout the world. Europe is well represented, with many theses originating from universities in Germany, France, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland. Countries with lesser quantities in the collection include Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Algeria, Indonesia, and others.
Useful for anyone interested in tracing the development of clinical and scientific inquiry in medical schools in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the collection is also notable for providing a record of the entry of women into the profession of medicine. Women denied entrance into American medical schools, for instance, sometimes turned to Europe for a chance to pursue their studies. One such pioneer is Dr. Susan J. Dimock, who was born in 1847 in Washington, North Carolina. Rejected at Harvard, she was subsequently admitted to the University of Zürich and completed her medical degree in 1871 with a defense of her dissertation on the various forms of puerperal (or "childbed") fever that she observed in Zürich maternity clinics.
Scholars studying the humanities will also find the collection useful for analyzing the evolution of languages, customs, and social mores in a given country or region.

Series 17. France, 1801-1971.
Following the student rebellions of 1968, French public universities were reformed and reorganized by then Minister of Education, Edgar Faure. The result was a centrally controlled university system divided into regional Academies. The universities were officially renamed after the major cities near which they were located. If a city boasted multiple universities a Roman numeral was added after the city name. Most universities retained or adopted an informal name as well, usually reflecting something from the history of the University, or honoring a famous alumni or patron. For example, Paris VI is also known as Université Pierre-et-Marie-Curie.
Beginning in 2007 the French university system was again subject to major restructuring, granting each university within the system autonomy from the central government.

Faculty of General and Colonial Medicine and Pharmacy of Marseille / University of
the Mediterranean Aix-Marseille. Faculty of Medicine), 1930-1970.
The original university was established in Aix-en-Provence in 1409 but was dissolved in 1793. The university was reestablished as l'Université d'Aix-Marseille in 1896. The Faculté Mixte de Médecine Générale et Coloniale et de Pharmacie de Marseille (Joint Faculty of General and Colonial Medicine and Pharmacy) was established in 1930. During the decolonization of the French empire, the medical faculty was renamed Faculté Mixte de Médecine et de Pharmacie in 1959. After 1968, the university was divided into two distinct institutions: l'Université d'Aix-Marseille I (Provence) and l'Université d'Aix-Marseille II, which included the medical faculty and was renamed l'Université de la Méditerranée in 1994. These two universities merged with l'Université Paul Cézanne to create Aix-Marseille Université in 2012.

Subseries 17.15.1. Faculté de Médecine de Paris (Faculty of Medicine of Paris), 1801-1971.
Faculté de Médecine, as named, saw its beginning as one of the four original faculties of the University of Paris, founded in the early 13th century (chartered 1200; all four faculties were fully formed by 1254). As represented in this collection, however, the Faculté did not come into being until the dissolution of the University after the French Revolution in 1792. While operating under the same name, it became a practical training instution merging medicine and surgery in the reformed hospital system of the Republic. When the University was reformed in 1806 the Faculté maintained its practical, hospital-based modes of instruction, integrating the laboratory-based medicine developing during the nineteenth century. Matters proceeded apace until the student demonstrations of 1964-1968; subsequent to these the university system was reorganized, resulting in thirteen different schools in Paris alone, several of which are represented in the collection.

Early in the period represented by the theses in this collection, the city now known as Wroclaw was in Prussia. In 1871 It was claimed by Germany after the defeat of France, and the name was changed to Breslau. In 1945, it was claimed by Poland at the Potsdam Conference and the name changed back to Wroclaw.
The institution now known as the University of Wroclaw was originally chartered in 1702 as a Jesuit university called Leopoldina. In 1811 with Napoleon's reordering of the Prussian state, Silesia became part of Prussia and Leopoldina was merged with the Protestant Viadrina University, which was moved from Frankfurt to Wroclaw/Breslau. Subsequently, the official name of the university was Schlesische Friedrick-Wilhelms-Universitat zu Breslau, although the theses rarely refer to it as such. The title pages preserve the convention of some variation of Viadrina Vratislavienski for most of the first half of the nineteenth century, with the midcentury characterized by a tendency not to name it at all, preferring "der hiesiger Universitat," "the local University." Later in the century there is a shift to some variation on the official name, interspersed with "Koniglichen Universitat Breslau," "The Royal University of Breslau."
