Description

Explore the deep connection between medicine and statecraft in this scholarly work from De Gruyter. Politische Medizin der Fruhen Neuzeit: Die Figur Des Arztes in Italien Und England Im Fruhen 17. Jahrhundert examines how political literature of the early modern period relied heavily on medical terminology. Because many authors of this era were practicing physicians, the structure of the state and socio-economic processes were often explained through physiological and diagnostic concepts. This book investigates the medicalization of government actions. It looks at how the figure of the doctor became central to political thought, providing a model for pragmatic governance based on the principles of reason of state. By studying the comparative roles of doctors in Italy and England during the early 17th century, readers gain insight into how medical procedures served as a template for ruling techniques and political management.
