[Gender and social class as categories in the history of nursing: male nurses in the professionalization of nursing in Germany around the year 1900].

At the turn of the century, the professionalization of German nursing was considerably accelerated. As a long-term result, nursing became a socially accepted occupation for middle-class women. This caused a process of social and sexual differentiation of the nursing staff, which is described below from the viewpoint of male nurses. Against this background, the categories "gender" and "class" are both significant in contemporary debates. They were at work at two levels: first, in perception and argumentation patterns and, second, as distinguishing features in the new institutions of professional nursing, i.e. the general hospitals and the professional organizations.
