MEDICINE AND RELIGION IN ENLIGHTENMENT EUROPE; ED. BY OLE PETER GRELL

MEDICINE AND RELIGION IN ENLIGHTENMENT EUROPE; ED. BY OLE PETER GRELL

Andrew Cunningham, Ole Peter Grell

About this book

During the Enlightenment, the religious elements in the treatment and interpretation of diseases to all intents and purposes disappeared. However, recent scholarship suggests that this may well be an overstatement and that religion retained many of its customary relations with medicine. This text explores how far this was true.
