About the Author
Angelica Nigro is a dedicated scholar whose research illuminates the often-overlooked contributions of Italian nurses and caregivers long before the reforms of Florence Nightingale. With meticulous attention to archival sources, she traces the evolution of nursing practices, ethics, and literature across three centuries of Italian history. Her work bridges medical humanities and gender studies, revealing how early modern practitioners shaped compassionate care long before it was formally recognized. Nigro’s writing combines rigorous scholarship with an accessible narrative style that invites both academics and general readers to reconsider the roots of modern nursing.
