Ten years of medical humanities
[Graphic][1] ![Graphic][2] A characteristic feature of the emergence of new subdisciplines is the development of a journal, and it might seem that this is what happened when Medical Humanities first appeared on the scene 10 years ago. But an examination of the history of medical humanities shows that it does not fit so readily into this simple pattern. The term ‘medical humanities’ was coined in the United States in the 1960s, but gained currency…

This article presents a study that explores how general practitioners (GPs) reflect on their workspaces and what that tells us about how professional practice is enacted. The study employed biography as its data collection method to enable three pilot and nine other GPs from the Swansea Region in the UK to write about their consulting rooms. Thematic analysis of biographies, employing individual and group analysis sessions, revealed eleven themes…
Looking for emerging themes in medical humanities—some invitations to our readers
Readers are invited to write about what themes should shape the continuing development of medical humanities Where are the people? I am their leader—I ought to follow them.” So cried Alexandre Ledru-Rollin during the 1848 revolution in France.1 Now it is a hazardous business for editors to conjecture about the parallels between their steering of a topical academic journal and a radical lawyer’s directing of social uprising, and even the most indu…
Coming of age? Association for Medical Humanities holds first annual conference
Medical humanities first conference at Durham University In our December 2001 issue we carried a small notice announcing a meeting in the University of Birmingham Medical School, at which a new body, the Association for Medical Humanities in the United Kingdom and Ireland, was to be launched. This was a small but important step in the development of the medical humanities as a field of study in these shores, and it took forward the work of a more…
Medical humanities among the healing arts
edical humanities is still in the first flush of youth-if not infancy-and questions about its nature, scope, and identity continue to occupy those engaged in it. One of these questions concerns its relationship to the "arts in health" movement, and thus to the therapeutic roles for creative and expressive arts in the clinical situation. This relationship is far from clear, and on examination it is a complicated and intriguing one
Medical humanities'—what's in a name
The identity and the role of a new academic Association for Medical Humanities are examined What's in a name? The question has preoccupied both ancient philosophers and modern corporations, albeit for conspicuously different reasons. Standing between them both historically and culturally, Jane Austen drily considered the question through Miss Caroline Bingley's suggested improvement to the ball which her brother proposed to host: “` . . .there is…
A renaissance for the ‘sense of wonder’
Medical humanities as an aspiration looks both forward and backward, seeking in part the rediscovery of a certain attitude towards medicine, its natural objects/subjects (patients) and its place in the cultural, artistic and scientific order. That attitude is embodied in the idea of a Renaissance Man or Woman embracing an interdisciplinary (even omnidisciplinary) view of the world, a universal gaze which is, on the face of it, no longer available…
Medical Humanities at the University of Wales Swansea
The UK's first taught master's degree in medical humanities involves a field of inquiry that is frequently philosophical, pursuing interests and questions traditionally arising in medical philosophy and ethics, but on a larger interdisciplinary canvas, drawing upon literature and the visual arts, sociology and anthropology, social history and politics, and theological and religious perspectives
Medical progress, reason and the imagination
Medicine and health care are sometimes thought of as the last bastions of Enlightenment thinking, because they continue to be primarily informed by a nineteenth-century view of scientific rationalism, and hold out endless possibilities for progress, seen as clearly beneficial. There is though nothing in the fabric of Nature to make this “reigning idea” of medical progress either true or inevitable–or even necessarily beneficial were it to be true…
Developing the medical humanities’–report of a research colloquium, and collected abstracts of papers
A research colloquium, sponsored jointly by the University of Wales and the Nuffield Trust, took place at Gregynog Hall, Powys, during early May 2001. The purpose of the meeting was to provide the opportunity for an intensive exploration of how the medical humanities could, as a recently emerging field of inquiry, best be developed into a worthwhile area of university-based teaching and research. The invited participants, primarily from United Ki…
Conceptions of medical humanities
In the first issue of Medical Humanities we raised the question of the relationship between medical ethics (or bioethics) and medical humanities, and this question is presently receiving considerable attention. Last September it occupied two important meetings, one being a workshop at the International Association of Bioethics World Congress in London, and the other being a joint seminar involving Oxford University and the Hastings Center, the pr…
