About this blog
Dear reader,
This blog explores the intersection between history, culture and medical sciences. It focuses on medical peculiarities influencing art or historical events. The ambition is storytelling rather than science. This blog does not pretend to reveal new knowledge, but to convey known facts in a new context. The intention is to entertain without dumbing down or wasting the reader’s time.
As my own field is neurology, cognitive processes and diseases of the brain will be overrepresented.
The title is a cadeau to psychologist and author Peer Hultberg’s novel “The City and the World'' in which short and clear stories in a microcosmos illustrate the psyche and the conditions of man. This blog humbly aspires to do the same.
