Impaired Consciousness in Ancient Medical Texts - Cambridge Classical Studies
Pelavski, Andres (Hebrew University of Jerusalem)
Employs a contemporary medical perspective to explore ancient ideas about the workings of the body, the soul and the mind –which underpin the notion of consciousness– challenging, thereby, some established ideas about mental illness in antiquity. All the ancient texts are translated and the theoretical concepts clearly explained.
