Uncover the era of societal upheaval in Fin-de-Siècle France and Italy, where “misfits” defined a generation. This compelling study examines how emerging experts in criminology, neurology, and sexology anatomized difference, linking crime, insanity, and deviance to biological flaws. Discover how these specialists proposed solutions, differentiating born deviants from ‘accidental misfits.’ Essential for scholars of social history, cultural history, and the history of medicine in modern Europe, this book offers deep insights into historical attempts to categorize and manage societal “aberrations.”
