- Abstract:
The article explores the perception of tuberculosis, once romanticized as a disease associated with creativity and beauty, particularly in the 18th and 19th centuries. It highlights its cultural and medical impact, tracing its evolution from a misunderstood affliction tied to artistic sensitivity and elegance to its eventual scientific understanding and treatment developments, such as Koch's discovery of the causative agent and the introduction of effective medications like streptomycin.
