The Poet-Physician
Author: Donald C. Goellnicht
Publisher: University of Pittsburgh Pre
ISBN: 0822977036
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
For six years of his brief like, Keats studied medicine, first as an apprentice in Edmonton and then as a medical student at Guy's Hospital in London. His biographers have generally glossed over this period of his life, and critics have ignored it and denied the influence of medical training on his poetry and thought. In this challenging reappraisal, Goellnicht argues that Keats' writings reveal a distinct influence of science and medicine. Goellnicht researches Keats' course work and texts to reconstruct the milieu of the early nineteenth-century medical student. He then explores the scientific resonances in Keats'' individual works, and convincingly shows the influence of his early medical training.

Routledge Handbook of Medicine and Poetry
Author: Alan Bleakley
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040019757
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 493
Book Description
The Routledge Handbook of Medicine and Poetry draws on an international selection of authors to ask what the cultures of poetry and medicine may gain from reciprocal critical engagement. The volume celebrates interdisciplinary inquiry, critique, and creative expansion with an emphasis upon amplifying provocative and marginalized voices. This carefully curated collection offers both historical context and future thinking from clinicians, poets, artists, humanities scholars, social scientists, and bio-scientists who collectively inquire into the nature of relationships between medicine and poetry. Importantly, these can be both productive and unproductive. How, for example, do poet-doctors reconcile the outwardly antithetical approaches of bio-scientific medicine and poetry in their daily work, where typically the former draws on technical language and associated thinking and the latter on metaphors? How does non-narrative lyrical poetry engage with narrative-based medicine? How do poets writing about medicine identify as patients? Central to the volume is the critical investigation of the consequences of varieties of medical pedagogy for clinical practice. Presenting a vision of how poetic thinking might form a medical ontology this thought-provoking book affords an essential resource for scholars and practitioners from across medicine, health and social care, medical education, the medical and health humanities, and literary studies.
