different backgrounds who are re-visiting the field from new
perspectives and with the support of innovative questions and
unexplored sources
- Explores crucial areas of intersection between the territory of
medicine and that of law, politics, religion, art and material
culture and highlights the connections between these apparently
separate fields

activities, medical identities, spaces and objects
- Addresses the study of medical careers, medical identities and spaces where medical activities were performed e.g. apothecary shops, courtrooms, convents and museums
