Abstract

The authors of the article focus their attention on theoretical problems of medical local study research through the prism of history of everyday life. First of all, the work touches the methodology and methods of work in this specific area, the peculiarities of using historical sourses. A conclusion about the leading role of interdisciplinarity in the medical branch of history of everyday life, the expediency and reality of limiting studies by certain relatively narrow chronotopes at the current stage has been done. Also, the role of the communicative behaviorist approach and the «city-village» dichotomy in a research are emphasized, which together with a wide historical source basis have methodological perspectives for revealing the topic.
