Current scholarship attributes none of the works of the 'Hippocratic corpus' to him, and the ancient biographical traditions of his life are not only late, but also written for their own promotional purposes. Yet Hippocrates features powerfully in our assumptions about ancient medicine, and our beliefs about what medicine -- and the physician himself -- should be. In both orthodox and alternative medicine, he continues to be a model to be emulated. This book will challenge widespread assumptions about Hippocrates (and, in the process, about the history of medicine in ancient Greece and beyond) and will also explore the creation of modern myths about the ancient world. Why do we continue to use Hippocrates, and how are new myths constructed around his name? How do news stories and the internet contribute to our picture of him? And what can this tell us about wider popular engagements with the classical world today, in memes, 'quotes' and online?"--|cProvided by publisher. 542 1 |fThis work is licensed under a Creative Commons license |uhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ legalcode 588 Description based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on December 03, 2019). 590 Bloomsbury Publishing|bBloomsbury Open Access 600 00 Hippocrates. 600 00 Hippocrates|xInfluence. 600 00 Hippocrates|xIn mass media. 600 07 Hippocrates.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00030023 648 7 To 146 B.C.|2fast 650 0 Physicians|zGreece|vBiography. 650 0 Medicine, Greek and Roman|xIn mass media. 650 0 Medicine|xHistoriography. 650 7 Biographical sources.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00832146 650 7 Influence (Literary, artistic, etc.)|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00972484 650 7 Mass media.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01011219 650 7 Medicine|xHistoriography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01014964 650 7 Physicians.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01062841 650 7 History of medicine.|2bicssc 651 0 Greece|xHistory|yTo 146 B.C.|vBiography|xSources. 651 7 Greece.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01208380 655 7 Biographies.|2lcgft 655 7 Biographies.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 History.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|aKing, Helen, 1957-|tHippocrates now |dLondon ; New York, NY : Bloomsbury Academic, 2019. |z9781350005891|w(DLC) 2019017436 830 0 Bloomsbury studies in classical reception. 914 on1108784025 994 92|bSTJ
