Lecture | Shakespeare and Medicine: 'So Sick I am not, yet I am not Well'

Tuesday, April 22, 2014, 1:15 pm

Free

A fun talk exploring the Elizabethan age of diagnosis, treatment and cures for the physical and mental maladies found in Shakespeare's plays. Elizabethans believed an imbalance of the "humors" would affect the patient and blood-letting would balance the body. Speaker Melinda Hall will discuss quirky cures for common maladies such as how putting a roasted onion in the ear could soothe an earache among other helpful remedies. Short excerpts from King Lear, Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, The Merry Wives of Windsor and All’s Well that Ends Well will be acted to demonstrate these points.
