Excerpt from Lectures on Syphilitic and Vaccinosyphilitic Inoculations: Their Prevention, Diagnosis and Treatment
The first edition of these Lectures was published in 1854. The distinctions between the different modes of origin of different syphilitic affections (as described in the introduction to the present volume) were then, for the first time, pointed out. These distinctions have lately attracted a large share of public attention, and are becoming generally recognized both by English and continental writers. The adhesive action which precedes the infection of a patient's constitution, and the suppurative action which accompanies the local variety of syphilis, have been acknowledged both in France and Germany. The papular origin of infecting syphilis, and the pustular origin of the non-infecting form of the disease, have especially been dwelt upon in M. Rollet's admirable work on Syphilis, recently published.
