- W4313444736 abstract "In this chapter, I establish the relationship Bacon had with the professional medical field and university medicine in the thirteenth century. By placing Bacon within a number of increasingly heated debates on the state of medicine and its professional status and popular appeal, I demonstrate that Bacon was typical of his time, and is responding to fears about the untrustworthy nature of monetized medicine. Bacon’s main qualms about physicians were that they did not understand natural philosophy, and so were unable to understand the workings of the human body. He was concerned with the lack of theory in medical practice. Bacon felt that the doctors were obligated to learn alchemical theory, for it formed the basis of medical practice, and taught how to sustain the body, restore health, and prolong human life. Doctors who were ignorant of alchemical theory were dangerous to patients. However, I also demonstrate that Bacon’s medical theory was fundamentally Galenic, in that it maintained that health comes from a proper balance of the four humors—an equal complexion. His only rejection of Galenic theory was in disregarding the importance of the natural humidity in the aging process, a point hitherto ignored in scholarship." @default.
