Abstract

- The poster briefly presents some main traits on how medical practice and understanding changed during the middle ages and renaissance, and how it is mirrored in material culture. A development well on its way during the first half of the middle ages seems to have been interrupted by the Great Death and after that new ideas from abroad were allowed to have a greater influence. A major explanation to this, Bergqvist suggests, is that the earlier knowledge, which was not written down, disappeared to a large extent as the population was reduced. Scholastic knowledge, on the other hand, survived better partly because it was written down, and so was made to replace what had been lost of personal and embodied knowledge.Bergqvist also suggests, with support of archaeological evidence, that medical culture of monastic institutions differed from the surrounding society, and did not spread widely outside the institutions.
