How did medical students become Galenic physicians in the early
modern era? Making Physicians guides the reader through the ancient
sources, textbooks, lecture halls, gardens, dissecting rooms, and
patient bedsides in the early decades of an important medical
school. Standard pedagogy combined book learning and hands-on
experience. Professors and students embraced Galen's models for
integrating reason and experience, and cultivated humanist
scholarship and argumentation, which shaped their study of
chymistry, medical botany, and clinical practice at patients'
bedsides, in private homes and in the city hospital. Following
Galen's emphasis on finding and treating the sick parts, professors
correlated symptoms and the evidence from post-mortems to produce
new pathological knowledge.
