Narratology in Early Modern medical manuscripts: The Case of London, Wellcome Library, MS 213
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
Se ha afirmado que pueden encontrarse elementos narrativos a lo largo de la historia de la escritura científica inglesa. Las narrativas pueden estar vinculadas a géneros específicos; así, los textos eruditos para médicos eran diferentes de los dirigidos al gran público (Taavitsainen, 2022). Este artículo se propone analizar un tipo específico de narrativa médica, el de las colecciones de recetas, centrándose para ello en el texto conservado en Londres, Wellcome Library, MS 213. El manuscrito data de principios del siglo XVII (1606, más concretamente) y recoge recetas "experimentadas y probadas por la speciall practize de Mrs Corlyon" (Moorat, 1962-1973)[1]. El códice perteneció a Alethea Howard (de soltera Talbot), condesa de Arundel. El objetivo principal del estudio es identificar y examinar las formas y funciones narrativas, así como las características particulares de la colección de recetas conservadas en el MS Wellcome 213, que pueden contribuir al conocimiento de las recetas escritas por y para mujeres durante el período moderno temprano.
