Abstract:

In this thesis, women's involvement in medicine in the medieval and early modern periods will be read through the lens of "experience" and "experiment" as sources of validation. "Experience" was a contested term and concept in this period, and my thesis is devoted in large part to studying the changing nature of experience. "Experience" connoted both something thought or known, and something done or performed. This perspective is important because during these periods, the value and definitions of experience and experiment changed among intellectual and professional elites, effectively refr

Abstract:

This thesis interprets The Book of Margery Kempe using a medieval medical approach. Through an interdisciplinary methodology based on a medical humanities framework, the thesis explores the significance of Kempe’s painful experiences through a broad survey of the human life cycle, as understood in medieval culture. In exploring the interplay of humoral theory, medical texts, religious instruction and life cycle taxonomies, it illustrates the porousness of medicine and religion in the Middle Ages and the symbiotic relationship between spiritual and corporeal health.

Abstract:

Folded almanacs are fascinating manuscripts that display astrological content relevant to the practice of medicine. However, due to the lack of primary evidence demonstrating the almanac in practice, it is difficult to ascertain their actual use. Medieval Scholars have therefore concentrated on the almanac's sources, materiality and contextual evidence of apparent medical purpose. My thesis examines the metaphysical principles within the folded almanac, which exemplify the micro/macrocosm inherent in medieval astro-medicine. I argue that the folded almanac, as a material object and compilation

Abstract:

This thesis explores the spectrum of signification of disability, impairment and embodied difference in medieval drama. Drama is an important medium in which to explore what the body is used to signify as it provides an extra dimension in the physical embodiment and performance of these physical and spiritual conditions. Despite the value of medieval drama in understanding the significations of physical and psychological affliction, it remains a neglected area of scholarly research. In order to understand the meaning of dramatic representations of disability and impairment, it is necessary to

In this thesis, some episodes of wild madness in Middle English romance are analysed. Some knights, such as Lancelot, Tristan, Ywain and Partonope, experience this insanity generally as a consequence of a dramatic event in their love life. This wild madness presents precise characteristics: the mad knights tend to prefer wild and secluded environments – like the forest – they give up their clothes, alter their diet and are extremely aggressive. It has been suggested that these episodes might be influenced by the Biblical precedent of Nebuchadnezzar. It has also been noted that these madmen sha

My dissertation examines late medieval literature through the lens of medical history, especially humoral psychology. Although the humors are still of interest to the history of medicine, they are often overlooked in current literary criticism. My project examines how the humors influenced representations of bodies in medieval literary texts (St. Erkenwald, Chaucer's Franklin's Tale, Richard Coer de Lyon, and Marie de France's Yonec). In chapters exploring the connection between the humors and religious devotion, marriage, cannibalism, and shape-shifting, I show that humoral psychology was not

This thesis offers an analysis of the Arabic Commentaries on the Hippocratic Aphorisms (9th-15th centuries AD) on three levels, (i) translation, (ii) individual styles and (iii) genre. It particularly examines meta-discursive features such as cohesion, subjectivity, hedges, the addressing of readership, and the formulation of truth statements. The analysis of these features reveals rhetorical conventions in the corpus that indicate a discursive unity of the genre of the medieval medical commentary. Yet, this study also shows considerable stylistic variation between the individual commentators

Abstract:

This dissertation examines the literary and historical contexts of four collections of medical material from Anglo-Saxon England. These collections are widely known under the titles Bald's Leechbook, Leechbook III, the Lacnunga, and the Old English Pharmacopeia. As medical literature, these texts have tended to be primarily approached through the lens of the history of medicine or cultural history and folklore. However, as textual compositions carefully engaging with learned culture, these texts are relevant to the wider literary history of the period. The aim of this thesis is to examine thes

One of the aims of this thesis is to establish the medical background of Giles of Santarem; it does not attempt a full survey of medicine in medieval Portugal. In order to do this it has been necessary to bring together a wide variety of primary and secondary sources which are essential to the reconstruction of Giles' intellectual milieu. In so doing, it is hoped that this will provide an introduction to the relatively neglected topic of medieval Portuguese medicine.

La thèse a pour objet la culture juive à Candie au cours des XIVe-XVIe siècles et, en particulier, l’influence exercée par la culture et les traditions des juifs sépharades et ashkénazes, qui s’établirent sur l’île dès la moitié du quatorzième siècle. La thèse se base d’un côté sur des sources administratives et notariales et, de l’autre, sur les manuscrits hébreux produits à Candie ou apportés là-bas par les immigrés pendant la période considérée. Le premier chapitre porte sur la communauté juive de Candie dans la première moitié du XVIe siècle, et fournit de nouvelles informations à l’égard

Abstract:

La Medicina de pecat és un extens tractat en vers de Ramon Llull concebut per a la direcció espiritual dels cristians pecadors que, mitjançant la pràctica d’exercicis devocionals i doctrinals, volen purificar la seva ànima i encaminar-se a la via de salut eterna. L’estructura de l’obra està integrada per diferents parts i capítols que constitueixen unitats formals i de sentit, les quals poden ser llegides per separat. Aquesta característica va donar lloc, des de ben aviat, a una doble transmissió del text: la del tractat com a conjunt compost per diverses parts i la d’unitats parcials del te

Sota el títol de Decus Arnaldi es reuneix un conjunt de treballs que tenen el denominador comú de versar sobre el corpus mèdic i filosoficonatural atribuït a Arnau de Vilanova (c. 1240-1311). Tres d'aquests treballs estan centrats en un seguit d'escrits breus sobre medicina pràctica i ocultisme, mentre que l'últim aborda la pervivència del corpus arnaldià. Serveix d'introducció un estat de la qüestió sobre la vida i l'obra d'Arnau i la "qüestió arnaldiana". <br/>La primera part estudia quatre consilia, tal com s'anomenaven en l'edat mitjana els textos mèdics que contenien tractaments per a mal

Abstract:

Nel primo secolo d.C., Aulo Cornelio Celso scrisse una serie di trattati sulle artes di cui rimane soltanto il De medicina, che mi propongo di studiare sia a livello contenutistico sia nell'ambito degli studi di ricezione. Celso condensò in otto libri l'essenza della medicina ippocratica nelle sue declinazioni terapeutiche, farmacologiche e chirurgiche, ma allo stesso tempo rielaborò in modo sincretico le teorie delle principali sette mediche del tempo. Il capitolo 1 delinea i tratti caratteristici del De medicina e la sua trasmissione nella tarda antichità e nel medioevo. Il capitolo 2 tratta

Questo studio si concentra su tre direttrici fondamentali: la monomania religiosa, la medicina legale e il diritto penale nell'Italia postunitaria. Nell’ambito di un contesto temporale ben definito, i cui estremi cronologici coincidono con l’Unificazione italiana (1861) e con i primi anni del XX secolo, si sono approfondite le numerose implicazioni mediche e giuridiche della malattia mentale nella forma di monomania religiosa. In particolare, prendendo spunto da una serie di condotte criminali frutto di suggestione religiosa o di deliri ascetici in soggetti diagnosticati come ‛monomani’, si so

Abstract:

This thesis examines whether and how historians’ reliance on medical treatises has limited the historiography of contagion as it relates to fourteenth through sixteenth century England. It analyses the context, contents, audience, and codicology of six English tractates, four on the plague and two on the sweating sickness. Before the early seventeenth century, most English tractates were translations/adaptations of Continental works, with ‘uniquely English’ content added. Although the plague dominates studies of pre-modern disease, focusing on the plague hinders comparative analyses that can r

Bakgrund: Deposition av fibrillär amyloid beta 1-42 (Aβ) i hjärnan är ett välkänt kännetecken för den neurodegenerativa sjukdomen Alzheimer’s (AD). Dessa ansamlingar påverkar pericyter, en celltyp involverad i blodkärlsfunktion och upprätthållande av blodhjärnbarriären (BBB). Pericyter uttrycker både receptorn low density lipoprotein receptor related protein 1 (LRP-1) till vilken Aβ1-42 binder, och proteoglykanet NG2. NG2 har stor betydelse för pericyters samspel med endotelceller och i sin lösliga form (sNG2) främjar den angiogenes. Tidigare studier har visat att mängden NG2 som klyvs från pe

La manca d'una bibliografia especialitzada sobre la institució hospitalària en el panorama català, feia indispensable precedir la investigació amb una anàlisi del concepte medieval d'hospital. A la dècada de 1970 i 1980, els principals estudis sobre el tema van estar supeditats, en part, a treballs de major envergadura sobre la pobresa a l'edat mitjana.

This thesis is aimed at a reconsideration of the last quarter of XIII century Genoese illuminating painting related to the scriptorium of St. Domenico monastery and characterized by the style of the so-called Master of the ms.

The analysis of manuscripts, already identified as Genoese but which needed further research, and previously unknown or attributed to another context allowed me not only to enrich the Ligurian corpus but also to open new frontiers of research. In particular I have analyzed types of books not yet considered in the Genoese production, such as philosophical and leg

Abstract:

My doctoral dissertation is based on the church and convent of Saints Philip and James the Less of the Augustinian Friars in Padua, and tries to ascertain the architectural evolution of these throughout their history, from the beginnings to today. This complex has been examined less than the bigger mendicant convents of the city; the only scientific monograph is still the book by Sergio Bettini and Lionello Puppi (1970). During the Middle Ages the Mendicant Orders created an uniform type of architecture which was derived from Cistercian Architecture. However, academic studies in general focus
