| Research Abstract |
Preoccupations with the body in the twenty-first century have led to a growing interest in the intersections between literature, religion and the history of medicine, and, more specifically, how they converge within a given culture. This study explores the ways in which aspects of medieval culture were predicated upon an interaction between medical and religious discourses, particularly those inflected by contemporary gendered ideologies.
This study interrogates the convergence of religion and medicine broadly in a number of different ways: textually, conceptually, historically, socially and culturally. It argues for an inextricable relationship between the physical and spiritual in accounts of health and illness, and demonstrates how medical, religious and gender discourses were integrated in medieval culture.
