Medical Case Studies (Consilia medica) of the Early Modern Period : Great Pox Documented

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Consilia played an important role in not only medieval but also early modern professional health literature. A literary &apos;consilium&apos; consisted of a written statement of one particular case, including the patient&apos;s condition and disease as well as advice concerning medical treatment. In the sixteenth century, consilia literature was a common component of the practices of many eminent physicians. This is illustrated through an analysis of consilia from twenty-two different collections and anthologies by fifteen selected authors, who represent university professors, personal physicians, and urban physicians from early modern Italy, France, and German-speaking Central Europe. A closer look at nearly 7,000 consilia shows how important a link they were within the medical community. A detailed view of consilia intended for patients suffering from the &apos;French disease&apos; reveals details about, for instance, the most common treatments for syphilis - mercury and guaiacum - alongside many other interesting and important details.
