In a strange alchemical mixture of alter ego, familiar and doppelgänger, Paracelsus was Pagel's cross and his torch.' With 'The Smiling Spleen', Walter Pagel reconfirms his position as a leading authority on Paracelsus and the influence of his doctrines and practice on the development of modern science and medicine. In this final work of his life, Pagel concentrates on Paracelsianism as a historical phenomenon, giving major attention to the lesser-known figures who characterized the 'storm and stress' of the Paracelsian reform movement during the 16th and 17th centuries. 517 $aSmiling Spleen 606 $aGeneral Medicine 606 $aDocumentation 606 $aHistory of Medicine 606 $aPhilosophy / Ethics 615 14$aGeneral Medicine 615 24$aDocumentation 615 24$aHistory of Medicine 615 24$aPhilosophy / Ethics 700 $aPagel$b W$01215542 801 0$bUKSKG 801 1$bUKSKG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910149637003321 996 $aThe Smiling Spleen$92809990 997 $aUNINA
