Electric Therapy Speculation / 电疗法想象

Electric therapy speculation is the source’s frame for eighteenth-century hopes that electricity could treat paralysis, frostbite, headaches, fertility problems, and other bodily conditions. 141. 制造弗兰肯斯坦：科幻之母和她的神奇时代 uses [[JamesGraham|James Graham]]’s “Temple of Health” and [[GiovanniAldini|Giovanni Aldini]]’s demonstrations to show the range from fashionable therapy to corpse-animation spectacle.

The concept is not a claim that the treatments worked. It marks a moment when electricity’s novelty created plausible hope, commercial theater, and scientific overreach, all of which made [[Frankenstein|《弗兰肯斯坦》]]’s “spark of life” feel culturally available.
