RE: The Miasmic Theory of Disease
Nice post! This 'whale' used to work at Ullevål Hospital, and when this hospital was built in 1887 (then one of the largest in Northern Europe) it was built totally in accordance with the miasmic theory, with large towers to get the mal air out!
Oh man, that's super cool! I knew that city planning was affected by miasmic theory, but I didn't know that architecture was too!
