Medical guides in Renaissance England
Journal Title: Annales Academiae Medicae Silesiensis - Year 2015, Vol 69, Issue
Abstract
Renaissance England in terms of the development of medicine did not differ much from medieval England. On the contrary, there was a significant return to ancient medical theories thanks to humanistic ideas. Rediscovered manu-scripts were translated into flawless Latin. At that time, medical manuals started to be written and translated into English since many humanists decided to promote medical knowledge. The ever-increasing interest in medicine led to a growing demand for popular books on medical advice. The author of the article reviews books of the regimina genre published in sixteenth-century England and discusses their contents.
