Medicinal Formulas and Experiential Knowledge in the Seventeenth-Century Epistemic Exchange between China and Europe
This essay deals with the medical recipe as an epistemic genre that played an important role in the cross-cultural transmission of knowledge. The article first compares the development of the recipe as a textual form in Chinese and European premodern medical cultures. It then focuses on the use of recipes in the transmission of Chinese pharmacology to Europe in the second half of the seventeenth century. The main sources examined are the Chinese …

Historia
In 1596, the Roman physician Andrea Bacci published a natural history of wines containing staggeringly detailed descriptions of ancient Roman dinner parties drawn from his extensive reading as well as 'the authority. . . of various marble tombs' [336].Like his earlier works dealing with hot springs and the Tiber, this book seamlessly combined natural history, antiquarianism, and medicine; and ranged over many other subjects such as religious deba…
The Medical Case Narrative
In this article, I argue that we should consider the medical case narrative as an “epistemic genre.” I suggest that historians of knowledge (including medical knowledge) should draw a distinction between “epistemic” and “literary” genres, and that the medical case narrative belongs to the first group, that is, those kinds of texts that develop in tandem with scientific practices. I also argue that the history of the medical case narrative should …
Was there a Querelle des Femmes in early modern medicine
Historians have often emphasized the anti-feminist role played by medical argument in the early modern Querelle des Femmes. In this article, I argue that this interpretation should be reconsidered. Plenty of evidence suggests that medicine played an important role on the pro-woman side of the Querelle, but so far this evidence has been analysed only piecemeal. When we review it together, a different story emerges, one in which proto-feminist argu…

This paper examines the rise of an epistemic genre, the Observationes, a new form of medical writing that emerged in Renaissance humanistic medicine. The Observationes (collections of case-histories) originated in the second half of the sixteenth century, grew rapidly over the course of the seventeenth, and had become a primary form of medical writing by the eighteenth century. The genre developed initially as a form of self-advertisement by cour…

Malpighi and the holy body
In this article I use the records of the canonization proceedings of Caterina Vigri (Saint Catherine of Bologna) to examine the role of physicians in assessing miraculous evidence, and more broadly the relationship between religious and secular views of the body in early modern Italy. Medical men – including the prominent anatomist Marcello Malpighi – were important expert witnesses in the final denouement of Caterina Vigri's canonization process…
Historia
Essays examine how the genre of historia reflects connections between the study of nature and the study of culture in early modern scholarly pursuits. The early modern genre of historia connected the study of nature and the study of culture from the early Renaissance to the eighteenth century. The ubiquity of historia as a descriptive method across a variety of disciplines—including natural history, medicine, antiquarianism, and philology—indicat…

Histoire des Femmes et ' Gender History ' (note critique)
Il paraît opportun, au regard de la somme que constitue cette Histoire des femmes en Occident, de rappeler les interrogations de Virginia Woolf sur la condition féminine, il y a quelque soixante ans. Aucun lecteur d'Une chambre à soi ne peut oublier l'étonnante série de questions qui exigent une réponse si l'on veut imaginer la vie d'une femme autrefois. ' A quel âge se mariaient-elles ? Combien d'enfants avaientelles en général ? A quoi ressembl…
