Beskrivelse

Explores how the introduction of timekeeping technologies -- sundials and water clocks -- affected the practice, rhetoric, and theory of ancient medicine; and, conversely, how medical timekeeping practices affected engagement with time elsewhere in society, drawing on literary and material evidence from ancient Greece, Rome, Mesopotamia, and Egypt.
