Medicine, Religion and Gender in the Middle Ages
Affiliation
This course explores medicine, religion and gender in early medieval European societies between 600 and 1100 CE. Informed by comparison with other premodern medical cultures, the course re-evaluates the relationship between religion and healing, and the gendering of medical knowledge and practice, in a period that sits awkwardly within the wider history of medicine.
