Art and Science of Healing From Antiquity to the Renaissance

February 19–April 30, 2017 - This exhibition documents this crucial transition using the rich primary source materials,amulets, gems, surgical instruments, as well as ancient and medieval texts available. Ancient methods for healing the body, mind, and spirit ranged from the miraculous, the talismanic, and the religious to the sophisticated knowledge of Greek medicine. In the Renaissance, however, a strict new empiricism began to draw a clear line between science and superstition.
