Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating history of medicine in ancient Rome, exploring its origins and evolution through the lens of cultural and societal influences. The author takes readers on a journey through the complex tapestry of Roman society, highlighting the roles of various races and culturesââ âthe aboriginal Latins, the conquering northern tribes, and the enigmatic Etruscansââ âthat shaped Roman identity. The author meticulously reveals how Greek medicine and philosophy were introduced to Rome, often encountering resistance and a lack of understanding from the rigid Roman ruling class. Through a detailed examination of the Roman religious landscape, rife with animistic deities and a reliance on rituals, the book explores the reasons for Rome's initial resistance to the more scientific approach of Greek medicine. The author's analysis shines a light on the enduring impact of Greek culture on the development of Roman medicine, highlighting the influence of Greek physicians and their contributions to the advancement of medical knowledge in Rome. Ultimately, this book offers a nuanced understanding of how cultural interactions and societal dynamics shaped the course of medical history in one of the world's most influential civilizations. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330522271_0
