Paludal

It is sometimes called paludal fever, and at others la grippe, and it is epidemic rather than contagious. ❋ Trumbull White (1904)

Unfortunately the investigations undertaken for this end have for a long time been fruitless, for the preconceived paludal theory has led investigators to occupy themselves exclusively with the inferior organisms inhabiting marshes. ❋ Various (N/A)

This word, therefore, is the one best suited to designate this specific ferment in question, and I have on this account, employed it and its adjectival derivatives in order not to resuscitate the idea of the exclusively paludal origin of the morbific agent. ❋ Various (N/A)

The specific ferment which engenders those fevers by its accumulation in the atmosphere which we breathe is not exclusively of paludal origin, and still less is it a product of putrefaction. ❋ Various (N/A)

It was only in 1879 that Klebs and myself, after having been thoroughly freed, by a long series of preparatory studies, from the unfortunate paludal idea, undertook together some investigations in malarious districts of the most varied character, marshy and not marshy. ❋ Various (N/A)

We owe to it the fact that we have been liberated from the paludal idea, and furthermore, that we have learned that it is often better, instead of trying to prevent the importation, for the most part imaginary, of malaria from distant marshes, to suppress its production in the soil under our feet or in that immediately surrounding us. ❋ Various (N/A)

This property of adhering to smooth surfaces explains perhaps the power of the Eucalyptus globulus in arresting the progress of paludal miasm (?). ❋ Various (N/A)

Lernaean marshes was but an allegory to denote the dissipation of paludal malaria by the purifying rays of the orb of day. ❋ Albert G. Mackey (N/A)

As long as the paludal theory held sway, the chemical interpretation of this identity of the product in every latitude was easy. ❋ Various (N/A)

Lancisi was completely imbued with the paludal notion, and consequently believed that the very severe malaria of Cistema was brought by the winds from the coast marshes, instead of being produced in the soil surrounding the district, which was then covered by this forest. ❋ Various (N/A)

Before giving a succinct account of the discovery of paludal miasma and of its natural history, I ought in the first place to state that I have not had the opportunity of reading or studying the great original treatise of Professor Salisbury. ❋ Various (N/A)

I reject, therefore, wholly the paludal assumption, and in order to express this view in the title of my paper, have been forced to employ terms which to my hearers may sound like italicisms. ❋ Various (N/A)

But in accordance with the idea that malaria is a product of paludal decomposition, the trees selected have almost always been the _eucalyptus_. ❋ Various (N/A)

A negro will walk naked through a forest in which every drop of water is impregnated with millions of paludal germs, which teems with insects, the bites of which produce malignant abcesses, and where the temperature reaches fifty degrees Centigrade in the shade. ❋ P��o Baroja (1914)

The novelty of this description of work in our country operates against the prospect of obtaining contractors from a distance as do also the exaggerated terrors of the paludal district of this state & the competition of other works. ❋ Charles Lee (1908)

The fact that an art which springs from such a marshy soil may, like certain paludal plants, be ❋ Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1872)

"At 2 am, in this paludal hinterland, a lone roadside figure bristling with electronic and photographic gear must present a curious sight." ❋ Unknown (2009)

The Italians generally have not this paludal notion, for experience taught them long ago that malaria is produced nearly everywhere -- in marshy districts as well as in those which might almost be called arid; in a volcanic soil as well as in the deposits of the Miocene and Pliocene periods and the ancient and modern alluvia; in a soil rich in organic matters as well as in one containing almost none; in the plains as well as on the hills or mountains. ❋ Various (N/A)

"As I have demonstrated by my investigations that in the distillation of paludal water, and that from the marshy shores of the sea, the ❋ Various (N/A)
