Madness in Verse: A Poetry Workshop Explore lived experiences of madness through a special poetry analysis workshop.

18/10: 'In this workshop we will read and discuss several poems about madness from different time periods - some by better known poets, others more obscure. We will end the session by picking up our own pens to create our own madness in verse.'

Thanks to UMN alum and Director of the Centre for Death and Society at the University of Bath Dr. John Troyer for speaking at today's final Health Humanities Brown Bag seminar of the year. #HealthHums

From debates between Brunonian, Hunterian, and Boerhavian conceptions of the body to indigenous and non-western practices, we invite scholarly essays that contest and complicate our understanding of the meanings, representations, and practices of health and/or medicine in the period. This collection seeks proposals for 5,000-6,000 word essays that explore alternative conceptions, practices, and approaches to health in the long-eighteenth century. We expect that these essays will be accessible to a wide range of scholars from different disciplines and hope that they will be written in a way that makes them available to advanced undergraduate readers. We particularly invite essays that explore: Indigenous and non-western traditions of health and healing Home remedies and homeopathy Prosthetics and other technological developments for atypical bodies Intersections of race, imperial networks, and health Literary renegotiations of health, illness, and care Please submit 300-400 word abs

Excited to be working with @miriamlw.bsky.social on this new collection. Please share and submit. #healthhums #c18 #histmed
