Maggiori informazioni sul libro

"Though very much a medically-oriented study, this history also covers material of literary, religious and legal derivation. Schäfer examines over 160 Latin texts from all over Europe, as well as many in the vernacular - including some from America - to challenge medical conceptions of old age during the early modern period."--Back cover.
