Ancient Historiography and its Contexts: Studies in Honour of A. J. Woodman
Wow! I have a longstanding personal interest in pain and the title kept me intrigued until one day I bought myself a copy. It was slow-going and I put it down a few times for easier things. That said I found everything about it interesting, and looking for more. I was sorry I only have "hymnbook Latin" as she gave occasional phrases in Latin and she'd made her own translations of so items with the originals in the notes. A working knowledge of Latin is expected in both the history of science and the history of medicine. Aside from that Cohen has sparked my imagination and I've been able to locate a number of references to follow-up on some historical figures. "The Modulated Scream." While not for the faint of heart the stories and examples Cohen has used are no where near as graphic as those in some other works (Foucault's "Discipline and Punish" for example).
"The Modulated Scream" is an excellent choice for anyone looking to learn more about justice, faith or health/health care in the medieval era.
