Focusing on the systematisation and classification of illness in its multiple forms, manifestations and causes, this volume examines case studies ranging from popular concepts illness through to specialist discourses on it. Using philological, historical and anthropological approaches, the contributions cover perspectives across time from East Asian, Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cultures, spanning ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, Greece and Rome to Tibet and China. They aim to capture the multiplicity of illness concepts and medical traditions within specific societies, and to investigate the historical dynamics of stability and change linked to such concepts. Providing useful material for comparative research, the volume is a key resource for researchers studying the cultural conceptualisation of illness, including anthropologists, historians, and classicists, amongst others". 517 $aSystems of Classification in Premodern Medical Cultures 606 $aMedicine, Ancient 606 $aMedical anthropology 606 $aDiseases and history 615 0$aMedicine, Ancient. 615 0$aMedical anthropology. 615 0$aDiseases and history. 676 $a610.938 702 $aSteinert$b Ulrike 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910720574803321 996 $aSystems of Classification in Premodern Medical Cultures$92989522 997 $aUNINA
