When I say Medieval medicine, you probably think of trepanning, blood letting, leeches, amputation without anaesthetic. And all that is entirely accurate. But you may not think of monastic manuscript transmission, glosses and editing, translating thousand year old Classical Greek and Roman books, pioneering Islamic medicine and research, refugees fleeing Rome, or herbal guides full of fascinating and semi magical advice!

So we'll talk about all that as well in our little chat about Viking Age, Medieval, and early Islamic medicine. And there might be the occasional Roman or Greek in there and some esoteric stuff too, just for funsies!
