Medical astrology in Spain during the seventeenth century.

Authors: Lanuza Navarro, Tayra;

Medical astrology in Spain during the seventeenth century.

Abstract

[ES] Es sabido que la práctica astrológica durante la Edad Moderna estaba muy relacionada con la medicina, y que proveía de una herramienta para el diagnostico y el tratamiento. Un aspecto interesante de esta relación de la medicina y la astrología es el reconocimiento de las ideas sobre medicina astrológica prevalecientes en los trabajos astrológicos y en los tratados de astrología médica. Este artículo discute las ideas del galenismo y las doctrinas astrológicas que establecieron una relación tan fuerte entre la astrología y la medicina. Se comienza con un repaso de los autores españoles que escribieron sobre esta materia, haciendo hincapié en aquellos que estaban relacionados con las universidades. El trabajo entra posteriormente en detalle con ejemplos de las ideas mencionadas que se hallan en los impresos españoles del siglo XVII. Para concluir, el articulo se refiere a varios tratados de medicina astrológica, de gran interés pero poco conocidos, que fueron además un referente para la práctica de la medicina astrológica en la época.

[EN] It is well known that astrological practice during the Early Modem period was closely related to medicine, and that it provided a tool for diagnosis and treatments. An interesting aspect of this relationship of medicine and astrology is the recognition of the prevailing ideas about medical astrology in the astrological works and astrological-medical treatises. This article discusses the ideas of Galenism and the astrological doctrines that established such a strong relationship between astrology and medicine. There is an overview of tbe Spanish authors who wrote about tbe subject, especially those linked with the universities. The paper then goes into detail about the examples of these ideas found in tbe Spanish printed texts of the seventeenth century. Finally, there is a section on some very interesting and little known treatises on medical astrology which were a reference for tbe practice of astrological medicine in the period.
