Description: Cures and medicine in the Middle Ages, French book Cures and medicine in the Middle Ages, French book This softcover book with 128 full color pages presents medicine and remedies used in the Middle Ages. Medieval remedies have a long and fascinating history full of contrasts, where gentleness and cruelty, science, religion and magic mix and sometimes merge. Herbal medicine grown by monks is perpetuated orally among the people, But, at the same time, contributions from antiquity, distant lands or discoveries, change medical practices. Little by little, medicine of the rich and medicine of the poor as they are often named in the medieval collections differentiate themselves. Onerous elements: gold, precious stones, spices or other more unusual and formidable are added to the plants... far from the sweet image of monastic potions. Some elements of this medicine will persist until the approaches of the 19th century.
