The Medical Man and the Witch During the Renaissance by Gregory Zilboorg is a historical account of the relationship between medicine and witchcraft during the Renaissance period. The book explores how medical professionals, such as physicians and surgeons, interacted with individuals accused of practicing witchcraft and the role they played in the persecution of witches. Zilboorg delves into the cultural and social context of the time, examining the beliefs and superstitions that shaped the attitudes towards witches and the methods used to diagnose and treat supposed witchcraft. The book also examines the impact of the witch trials on the medical profession and the development of medical knowledge during this period. Overall, The Medical Man and the Witch During the Renaissance provides a fascinating insight into the intersection of medicine and witchcraft during a tumultuous period in European history.Publications Of Institute Of The History Of Medicine, The Johns Hopkins University, Third Series, V2.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
