Originally published in 1990, Medicine at the Courts of Europe
1500-1837 is a collection of essays examining the whole range of
medical activities in a variety of European courts, from Rome of
the Borgias to the Russia of Catherine the Great. It documents the
diverse influences of custom, wealth, religion and royal
intervention, along with foreign innovation, popular literary
satire and matters of litigation which so changed the face of court
medicine over three centuries. By looking at court medical
practitioners in such a wide chronological, geographic and thematic
context, these essays provide many new insights for all those
interested in the history of medicine, society and politics from
the sixteenth century to the early nineteenth century.
