Recenzii

“This is an outstanding volume and nice testament to the importance of Nancy Siraisi’s career and the ways in which her scholarship and, indeed, interpersonal relationships have shaped the field. … This work should, therefore, appeal to anyone interested in the early modern or medieval history of medicine, with a special interest for those focused on the wider context in which medical knowledge was articulated across this era.” (Bradford Bouley, Nuncius, Vol. 33 (3), November, 2018)
“The authors draw inspiration from Siraisi’s research method and reinforce her central themes. The essays thus mirror Siraisi’s work, … Siraisi’s research methods and work praised in this remarkable volume.” (Fabrizio Baldassarri, Gesnerus, Vol. 75 (2), 2018)
