This paper investigates the role of admission forms in the regulation of asylum confinement in the second half of the nineteenth century. Taking the Toronto Lunatic Asylum as a case study it traces the evolution of the forms' content and structure during the first decades of this institution. Admission forms provide important material for understanding the medico-legal assessment of lunacy in a certain jurisdiction. First, they show how the description of insanity depended on a plurality of actors. Second, doctors were not necessarily required to indicate symptoms of derangement. Third, patients' relatives played a fundamental role in providing clinical information. From an historiographical perspective, this paper invites scholars to consider the function of standardized documents in shaping the written identity of patients.

坐月子的纸质技术:录取表格中不断发展的标准(1850-73)

本文调查了 19 世纪下半叶接纳形式在监管庇护禁闭中的作用。以多伦多疯人院为例,它追溯了该机构最初几十年中形式内容和结构的演变。入学表格为了解特定司法管辖区的精神病法医学评估提供了重要材料。首先,他们展示了对精神错乱的描述如何依赖于多个参与者。其次,不一定要求医生指出精神错乱的症状。第三,患者亲属在提供临床信息方面发挥了基础性作用。从史学的角度,本文邀请学者考虑标准化文件在塑造患者书面身份中的作用。
