Petit, Caroline, "Introduction: Why “revisit” medical humanism in Renaissance europe?", Arts et Savoirs, (Ejemplar dedicado a: Revisiting Medical Humanism in Renaissance Europe) 15 (2021), (publicació electrònica).
- Resum
- The following articles mostly arise from panels that should have taken place at the Renaissance Society of America (RSA)'s annual meeting in 2020 in Philadelphia. In light of the pandemic, the meeting had to be cancelled: but we could not let go of all the hard work that had gone into our panel preparation. This gave rise to the idea of a collection on “revisiting medical humanism”, as per the RSA panel title I had sponsored as Discipline Representative for Medicine and Science. Let this collection of papers be a token of our continued enthusiasm and love for the RSA and not just medical humanism!
I am extremely grateful to the editors of Arts et Savoirs for accepting this special issue and providing the time and resources to publish it so professionally and speedily. I owe special thanks to Carmen Husti for her help in the final stages of publication and to Aidan Norrie (Warwick), for providing an extremely thorough revision of the English in record time. I would like to extend my warmest thanks to the anonymous referees for providing helpful remarks and suggestions in an especially busy and complicated year for all.
Finally, none of this would have seen the light were it not for the constant support and encouragement I received in the Centre for the Study of the Renaissance (CSR) at the University of Warwick from its two most recent directors: Ingrid de Smet encouraged the unredeemable Classicist I am to persevere in Renaissance Studies and to serve the RSA as Discipline Representative. David Lines kindly trusted me with the post of Director of Graduate Studies in the CSR and was a constant source of advice and motivation. Finally, I am indebted to the CSR for providing financial and logistical support on several occasions, including the research that led to my article in this volume.
