In the late 16th to early 17th century, a medical movement saw a meteoric rise in popularity known as Paracelsianism. Based on the writings of a physician who had died in 1541, the movement developed quite a cult following, with many claiming Paracelsus was able to work miracles of healing. Debate over the legitimacy of Paracelsus' work became so heated that some Europeans were executed just for owning on of his books. Shakespeare takes aim at this cultural divide in his play, Alls Well That Ends Well, when in Act II Scene 3, Lafeu and Parolles have a conversation about miracles, and arguments, with Lafeu saying “They say miracles are past; and we have our philosophical persons, to make modern and familiar, things supernatural and causeless.” Parolles calls this perspective the “the rarest argument of wonder that hath shot out in our latter times.” with Lafeu responding it is of “Both Galen and Paracelsus.” This scene is Shakespeare's only use of the word Paracelsus, while Galen gets used elsewhere repeatedly, even alongside Hippocrates in Merry Wives of Windsor. As a reflection of the culture of his day, Shakespeare's plays suggest that while Galen was the established foundation of medicine for this period, Paracelsus made a significant mark on the medical landscape. Here today to introduce us to Paracelsus, the medical movement launched by his followers, and what we should know about why Parolles would call this “The rarest argument of wonder” is our guest and author of “Renaissance Medicine“, Vivian Nutton.

The key words there are “may” and “nearing.” If our friend William Shakespeare were writing this update, this would be no doubt be Act II, Scene i, because this is just the opening round (scene one) of the second attempt (Act II) in this decade to pass a comprehensive federal privacy law.

Kate Molleson shares stories of Handel's music at summer soirees across the British Isles When he arrived in London in 1712, German-born George Frideric Handel was already one of Europe's most exciting musical minds. Over the next decades he would not only carve a living for himself, but transform British musical life, from the opera stage to the choir stalls, and hardwire his legacy into our culture. This week, Kate Molleson tells the stories of five summer soirees from across his life in the British Isles – golden evenings of 18th-century music making, and some of his most eventful performances.

Don Giovanni, K. 527 (Il dissoluto punito, ossia il Don Giovanni, literally The Rake Punished, or Don Giovanni) is an opera in two acts with music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Italian libretto by Lorenzo Da Ponte. A work based on the legends of Don Juan, fictional libertine and seducer, it was premiered in 1787. Although sometimes classified as comic, it blends comedy, melodrama and supernatural elements. A staple of the standard operatic repertoire, Don Giovanni is one of the most-performed operas worldwide. It has also proved a fruitful subject for writers and philosophers.
Join Lisa VanDamme as she guides you through The Romantics by Edmond Rostand.Recommended Book Url: https://readwithme.app.link/IhjAgeFkSjbDescriptionThis three-act comedy by Edmond Rostand, best known for his enduringly beloved play Cyrano de Bergerac, is the story of two star-crossed lovers from feuding families forced to whisper their sweet nothings across a wall. Or is it… Even before the curtain closes on Act I, Rostand has turned this seemingly cliché scenario on its head, with uproarious results. Rostand has given us laugh-out-loud theater with an earnest theme, as he takes on the question: What does it really mean to be a romantic?Why I Love itI still recall opening this play as I lounged in a summer cottage I had rented in the Cotswolds. I knew nothing at all about the plot. But I felt sure, since it was written by Rostand, purveyor of idealism and poetry, that it would be…well…romantic.
