Recenzii
'... Oberhelman succeeded to produce a diachronic collection of articles that offer an overall view of the role dreams played in Greek medicine and their future impact in Byzantine and post-Byzantine Greek thought. The book is elegant and carefully edited.' Bulletin of the History of Medicine '... this volume does successfully what a collection of essays should do: offer a comprehensive coverage of the topic, with different sources, media and perspectives.' Bryn Mawr Classical Review
Descriere
This volume centers on dreams in Greek medicine from the fifth-century B.C.E. Hippocratic Regimen down to the modern era. Medicine is here defined in a wider sense than just formal medical praxis, and includes non-formal medical healing methods such as folk pharmacopeia, religion, ’magical’ methods (e.g., amulets, exorcisms, and spells), and home remedies. This volume examines how in Greek culture dreams have played an integral part in formal and non-formal means of healing. The papers are organized into three major diachronic periods: classical Greek through late Roman, the Byzantine era, and from the Turkish period to the modern day.
