This anthology explores often overlooked periods in medicine from
medieval to early modern times, taking as a principal theme the
need to return to familiar texts and sources for new
interpretations. In twelve essays written by a diverse group of
scholars, the collection covers topics such as medical politics,
herbal remedies and nationalism, the role of experience in casebook
writing, the use of medical allusions in literature and popular
culture, and the changing impact of various book editions on
surgery, embryology, and lay medical knowledge. Contributors
include: William Birken, Jocelyn Emerson, Elizabeth Lane Furdell,
Frances Garrett, Florence Eliza Glaze, Ann A. Huse, Brian Nance,
Kaara L. Peterson, Todd H.J. Pettigrew, Rachel Poliquin, Anne Van
Arsdall, and Lilla Vekerdy.
