Introduction Robben Island, an island off the southern coast of South Africa barely six miles from Cape Town, the capital city of the Cape Colony in the nineteenth century, accommodated ‘lunatics’, ‘lepers’ and the ‘chronic sick’ for nearly a century after 1846. The ‘General Infirmary’ was established just eight years after the emancipation of slaves was finalized, at a time when the colonial government and a nascent middle class in Cape Town were trying to impose a new order on the undisciplined urban underclass in preparation for self-rule. The Cape's most dangerous insane were sent to the island asylum from 1846, that, until 1875, was the only asylum in the colony. By 1921, there were a number of other asylums established: Grahamstown (1875), Port Alfred (1889), and Fort Beaufort (1894) in the Eastern Cape, and Valkenberg (1891) near Cape Town. While Britain and some of her colonies provided extensive provision for the insane, the Cape did not. Most of the colonial insane were cared for at home or through private boarding arrangements: only the most desperate resorted to the asylum. In 1890, the proportion of registered white insane to the white population at the Cape was 1:1,180, about three times lower than that in Ireland, New Zealand, New South Wales, Victoria and Britain (from 1:294 to 1:380). There was also a much larger proportion of people classified as ‘criminal’ insane in the Cape than in Britain or New South Wales, although in New South Wales and elsewhere, police were still responsible for a large proportion of asylum committals before 1900.

Introduction The changing approaches to the history of madness and the lunatic asylum in Canada have broadly reflected the ebb and flow of Anglo-American psychiatric historiography. The first generation of Canadian medical historians privileged the role of individual politicians, the evolution of the medical profession, and the difficulties of state formation in the gradual establishment of state-run mental hospitals. T. J. W. Burgess, for example, thought that Canada had ‘shown a gradual process of evolution’ in the care of the insane, from ‘an era of neglect; then, one of simple custodial care with more or less mechanical restraint; and finally, the present epoch of progress’. Burgess's account was followed by more sobering interpretations of success of the lunatic asylum, such as that written by Harvey Stalwick. In his formulation, social conditions and political priorities beyond the control of pioneering alienists (psychiatrists) undermined the potentially beneficial aspects of institutional psychiatry. His sympathetic assessment of psychiatry, and its shortcomings, was thematically consistent with works produced contemporaneously in Britain and the United States, by Kathleen Jones and Gerald Grob respectively. Their work continues to attract considerable sympathy from researchers in Canada. Endorsing their ‘meliorist’ interpretation, Peter Keating has argued that the ‘moral treatment’ of insanity that inspired the first generation of asylums is best understood as a hopeful new breakthrough in medical practice.
