As the Spanish empire grew, cultural ideas and practices related to sickness and health, sex, monstrosity and death came into contact and conflict. Old ideas took root in new soil, others were stamped out, and new cultures arose. This collection examines the dynamic context in which medical cultures circulated to propose new interpretations of the reception, appropriation, and elaboration of medical cultures in the vast territories controlled by the Spanish monarchy.

Seit der Antike existiert das Zusammenspiel zwischen Literatur und Medizin. Das erste Buch von Homers »Ilias« etwa berichtet über die im Lager der Achaier ausgebrochene Pest. Handelt es sich hierbei um eine ausführliche Erzählung, so war vor allem das Genre des Aphorismus als eine literarische Technik zur Verbreitung medizinischen Wissens von Bedeutung, angefangen beim »Corpus Hippocraticum« bis zu den »Aphorismi de cognoscendis et curandis morbis« (1715) von Herman Boerhaave.Gleichzeitig wurde das Thema Krankheit und ihr Einfluss auf die Entwicklung der Menschheit von einer großen Zahl poetischer Gelehrter und gelehrter Poeten untersucht.Der Sammelband vereinigt vierzehn Artikel, die sich mit dem Verhältnis von Krankheit und Literatur beschäftigen. Er bietet erstmals eine Übersicht der niederländischsprachigen Forschung zu diesem Thema, wobei die literarischen und kulturellen Funktionen medizinischen Wissens und die Poetik medizinischen wie literarischen Schreibens im Mittelpunkt stehen.From as early as classical antiquity there has been an interplay between literature and medicine. The first book of Homer’s Ilias recounts the plague that swept the camp of the Achaeans. While this instance concerns a full-length book, it is the aphorism that is of greater importance as a literary technique for the dissemination of medical knowledge, from the “Corpus Hippocraticum” of antiquity until the “Aphorismi de cognoscendis et curandis morbis” (1715) by Herman Boerhaave. In addition, the subject of illness and its impact on mankind was explored by great numbers of poetic scholars and scholarly poets.This collection offers fourteen articles which all highlight the relation between disease and literature. It entails a first-ever overview of Dutch-language research in this field, whereby the literary and cultural functions of medical knowledge and the poetics of medical and literary writing are in the focus.
