History of Medicine - Second Period - Wednesday, 3/10

"Today," Nick started, watching his students pile in, "we'll be dealing with alchemy. Now, as alchemy isn't anything that really requires study, per se, and I'm sure you all have some idea of what it might be about" though he started passing out handouts on the subject, I'd like this to be more of a discussion class."

Alex skimmed over the handouts, reading a few things here and there. He didn't take any notes but he didn't tune out the lecture either.

Claire underlined a few things that caught her attention in the handouts.

Ellie listened to the lecture and highlighted parts of the handout she thought seemed important.
eyebrowgoesup: (fascinating)

Spock read over the handouts, making mental notes as he did so.

"There are two real points I'd like to cover for today's class. The first is this:

"Alchemy, in all it's forms, is the first sign of refinement for medical use. The first pharmaceuticals. The beginning of chemistry, really. Can you see any remainders from the original art in modern medicine still? If so, what are they and do you think that this is a good thing?"

"The second is the consideration of alchemy as a spiritual or philosophical study. What do you think of Jung's use of alchemical principles? (http://www.gnosis.org/jung_alchemy.htm) Do you think they have some place in modern psychology?"
