Description

Explore the history of Galenism, a rational and coherent medical system that served as the dominant medical doctrine in the Latin West throughout the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. This Routledge publication examines how Galenism, based on the medical and philosophical views of Galen (129-c.210/6), shaped healthcare from its origins in 12th-century Salerno. This volume investigates the cultural exchanges between the Arabic and Christian worlds that helped construct Latin Galenism. It tracks the expansion of this medical doctrine across Europe as it moved alongside the growth of the university system. This text provides a deep look into the clinical practices and theoretical frameworks that defined medical thought from antiquity through the European Renaissance.
