Hybrid Healing. Old English Remedies and Medical Texts, Hardback/***

This book works from the premise that the tremendous diversity of Old English medical texts requires an equally diverse range of interpretative methodologies. Taking a case study approach, it offers close readings tailored to individual remedies, drawing from biology, rhetoric, archaeology, folkloristics and disability studies. -- .
