Medicine and Religion in Enlightenment Europe de Andrew Cunningham

Medicine and Religion in Enlightenment Europe: The History of Medicine in Context

Autor Andrew Cunningham Editat de Ole Peter Grell
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 feb 2017
The Enlightenment period, here understood as covering the years 1650 to 1789, is usually considered to be a period when religion was obliged to give way to rationality. With respect to medicine this means that the religious elements in the treatment and interpretation of diseases to all intents and purposes disappeared. However, there are growing indications in recent scholarship that this may well be an overstatement. Indeed it appears that religion retained many of its customary relations with medicine. This volume explores how far, and the ways in which, this was still the case. It looks at this multi-faceted relationship with respect to among others: medical care and death in hospitals, religious vocation and nursing, chemical medicine and religion, the clergy and medicine, the continued significance of popular medicine, faith healing, dissection and religion, and religious dissent and medical innovation. Within these significant areas the volume provides a European perspective which will make it possible to draw comparisons and determine differences.

’... the book is a work of serious scholarship that deserves attention and discussion.’ Theological Studies ’This well-produced and effective volume brings together thirteen essays on different aspects of the interface between religion and medical thought and practice in late seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Europe to offer a significant contribution to our understanding of the Enlightenment more broadly.’ Journal of Ecclesiastical History ’The volume is highly recommended for any scholar seeking a fuller view of the Enlightenment.’ New Perspectives on the Eighteenth Century ’This volume will be of interest not only to specialists but also to readers more broadly concerned with the cultural history of eighteenth-century Europe.’ Catholic Historical Review
