For example, homosexuality was once considered such an "illness" (see DSM-II), and this perception varies with cultural bias and theory of conduct.

The town developed around the abbey until forming a small rural community of 6,000 inhabitants in the 1960s.

| | | | | Illness: Encyclopedia II - Marie Lafarge - Parisian illness While Charles was in Paris, Marie wrote to him passionate love letters, sent him her picture, as well as a Christmas cake in the spirit of the season. He ate a piece of it and suddenly became violently ill soon after. As "choleralike" symptoms were common in those days, he did not think about consulting with a physician, but threw the cake away, thinking that became spoiled in transit. When he returned to Le Glandier, having raised some money, he still felt ill. Marie put him to bed and fed him venison and truffles. Almost immediately Charle ...

Potter's mother won substantial damages from the BBC and The Listener, who were reportedly unimpressed by Whitehouse's claim to have had a blackout on air and subsequently to have had no recollection of her words.

In the 1990s her activity was reduced by illness and a fall which damaged her spine in 1997. Her husband died in July 2000. She died, a ...

He had collapsed on a Manhattan sidewalk, and author and Algonquin Round Table character Robert Benchley was said to have wound up with Valentino's top hat as he assisted the stricken Valentino into an ambulance.

| | | | | Illness: Encyclopedia II - George Lohmann - Illness and Comeback After the 1892 season had ended, a dreadful shock came when it was announced that Lohmann had contracted tuberculosis. In an effort to improve his health, Lohmann sailed during the 1892/1893 winter to Cape Town, but his health did not at first improve and he could not play at all for Surrey in 1893 or 1894; indeed he could play no cricket until the 1894/1895 Currie Cup final where he turned out for Western Province.
By July 1895 his health had recovered sufficiently for him to play again for Surrey. Fortuitously, Lohmann's return coin ...

| | | | | Illness: Encyclopedia II - Psychopathology - Psychopathology as the study of mental illness Many different professions may be involved in studying mental illness or distress. Most notably, psychiatrists and clinical psychologists are particularly interested in this area and may either be involved in clinical treatment of mental illness, or research into the origin, development and manifestations of such states, or often, both. More widely, many different specialties may be involved in the study of psychopathology. For example, a neuroscientist may focus on brain changes related to mental illness. Therefore, someone who is referred to as a psychopathologist, m ...

| | | | | | | Illness: Encyclopedia II - Vivien Leigh - Continuing illness In 1951 the couple performed two plays about Cleopatra, William Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra and George Bernard Shaw's Caesar and Cleopatra, alternating the play each night and winning good reviews. They took the productions to New York, where they performed a season at the Ziegfeld Theatre into 1952. The reviews there were also mostly positive, but the critic Kenneth Tynan angered them when he suggested that Leigh's was a mediocre talent which forced Olivier to compromise his own. Tennant's diatribe almost precipitated a ...
