Abstract

Quatrième de couverture : "Près de 180 films sortis entre 1919 et 2014 ont pour héros (ou personnage important) un docteur en médecine. C'est souvent un psychiatre ou un chirurgien qui se débat dans une histoire d'amour, se comporte comme un aventurier, un criminel ou encore un chercheur pervers. La vision cinématographique du médecin peut paraître fantaisiste à première vue mais rencontre, souvent inconsciemment, des problèmes réels inhérents à cette profession."

Abstract

Honoré de Balzac (1799-1850) a été le témoin d'une époque troublée où se sont succédé les régimes politiques et où la science et la médecine ont fait des progrès décisifs. Romancier avant tout, il a transmis beaucoup de détails importants sur la société de son temps et peut être, à cet égard, considéré comme un véritable historien. A travers le regard de ce monstre sacré de la littérature, est rapportée la révolution médicale à l'aube du XIXe siècle, à cette période clé où apparaît la médecine scientifique. Comprendre les progrès à travers les yeux d'un citoyen du monde tel que Balzac, vivant à Paris à une époque où la capitale était le centre des avancées médicales, constitue une approche audacieuse, l'histoire de la médecine étant rarement envisagée à l'aune de la littérature.

Abstract

"Not of woman born, the Fortunate, the Unborn"-the terms designating those born by Caesarean section in medieval and Renaissance Europe were mysterious and ambiguous. Examining representations of Caesarean birth in legend and art and tracing its history in medical writing, Renate Blumenfeld-Kosinski addresses the web of religious, ethical, and cultural questions concerning abdominal delivery in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. Not of Woman Born increases our understanding of the history of the medical profession, of medical iconography, and of ideas surrounding "unnatural" childbirth.Blumenfeld-Kosinski compares texts and visual images in order to trace the evolution of Caesarean birth as it was perceived by the main actors involved-pregnant women, medical practitioners, and artistic or literary interpreters. Bringing together medical treatises and texts as well as hitherto unexplored primary sources such as manuscript illuminations, she provides a fresh perspective on attitudes toward pregnancy and birth in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance; the meaning and consequences of medieval medicine for women as both patients and practitioners, and the professionalization of medicine. She discusses writings on Caesarean birth from the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, when Church Councils ordered midwives to perform the operation if a mother died during childbirth in order that the child might be baptized; to the fourteenth century, when the first medical text, Bernard of Gordon's Lilium medicinae, mentioned the operation; up to the gradual replacement of midwives by male surgeons in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Not of Woman Born offers the first close analysis of Frarnois Rousset's 1581 treatise on the operation as an example of sixteenth-century medical discourse. It also considers the ambiguous nature of Caesarean birth, drawing on accounts of such miraculous examples as the birth of the Antichrist. An appendix reviews the complex etymological history of the term "Caesarean section."Richly interdisciplinary, Not of Woman Born will enliven discussions of the controversial issues surrounding Caesarean delivery today. Medical, social, and cultural historians interested in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, historians, literary scholars, midwives, obstetricians, nurses, and others concerned with women's history will want to read it.

Abstract

This abundantly illustrated volume offers an exploration of the depictions of illness and healing in Western artworks that range from Egyptian wall carvings to medieval manuscripts, and from paintings and sculpture by the great masters of the Renaissance such as Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci to twentieth-century artists such as Matisse and Magritte. Thematic chapters cover the examination of patients and their various maladies including disabilities and mental illnesses; healing and medical treatments; and the sufferings of patients and their hopes for cures and recovery. Psychological anguish--as represented in The Expulsion of Adam and Eve by Masaccio and Munch's The Scream--is treated along with the physical manifestations of pain. This volume, the seventeenth in the popular Guide to Imagery series, offers analyses by both an art historian and a practicing physician who comment, respectively, on the cultural context in which specific artworks were created and the level of technical knowledge available at that time, an approach that makes for a fascinating look at a topic that has figured frequently in the Western artistic tradition. -- Book Description.

Abstract

This book is the first to focus on a paradox of anatomical images from the Renaissance to the 18th century: the representation of skeletons and flayed figures in a state of animation, i. e. apparently endowed with life despite the logical impossibility of this being so. The exploration of this phenomenon-a paradox in modern eyes only-entails careful study of the deep coherence between artistic and anatomical theory, a coherence that developed within the same framework of thinking (humanist rhetoric), and was determined by a dominant philosophical concept (teleology).

Abstract

De unieke selectie uit het werk van William Kentridge en de uitzonderlijke locatie - het Brugse Sint-Janshospitaal, met zijn 800 jaar een van de oudste nog bestaande ziekenhuiscomplexen in Europa - maken van deze tentoonstelling een niet te missen gebeuren over trauma en heling. Centraal staat een hedendaagse interpretatie van de middeleeuwse dodendans: More Sweetly Play the Dance, een video-installatie van Kentridge uit 2015. De dialoog tussen de opmerkelijke setting en de geëxposeerde kunstwerken - onder meer van Marcel Broodthaers, met wie Kentridge een aantal dingen gemeen heeft - daagt de bezoeker uit om laag na laag van de geschiedenis te 'doorwerken'. 0De catalogus bevat vier verfrissende essays. Margaret Koster Koerner, curator van de tentoonstelling, biedt de lezer een beeld van Kentridge en van Brugge. Benjamin Buchloh gaat in op de manier waarop Kentridge de historische avant-garde begrijpt: vanuit het perspectief van de balling, dus vanuit een heel andere invalshoek dan de Amerikaanse en Europese naoorlogse neo-avant-gardisten. Joseph Leo Koerner laat zich door het voormalige ziekenhuis en de historische gelaagdheid van Brugge inspireren om de kunst van Kentridge te zien als een eigenzinnig verwerkingsproces waarin het verleden zowel verminkend als verlossend werkt. Harmon Siegel onderzoekt Kentridges benadering van de filmgeschiedenis en brengt daarbij ook het werk van Broodthaers ter sprake.0'Smoke, Ashes, Fable: William Kentridge in Bruges' biedt een nieuwe, indringende kijk op een van de grootste kunstenaars van onze tijd.00Exhibition: Memlingmuseum, Bruges, Belgium (21.10.2017-25.02.2018).
