Podcasts about humorism

On this week's Bonus Episode, Eleanor leads us through the libraries of early medical history to guide us through Leech Books and early medical texts! We start off talking about the book generally thought to be the oldest 'English' medical text, Bald's Leech Book, discussing how the Medieval mind perceived of ailments - namely as issues interlinked with spiritual and supernatural problems, not just physical ones.We then leap back to discuss Ancient Chinese medicine, its roots in the work of the mythical 'Yellow Emperor,' and how Classical writers like Hippocrates and Galen developed and refined concepts like Humorism. From the works of fundamentally important Medieval writers such as Ibn Sina and Hildegard of Bingen to the advent of Protestant medicine, as practiced by the likes of Andreas Vesalius and William Harvey, it's a slightly squishy and bizarre journey through mankind's understanding of the body, from ancient times to today. Yet, considering that some of the remedies proposed by these writers are still in use today, it's a bit simplistic to suggest that they were just 'wrong' about medicine and how the body worked.So, let's raise our scalpels and peel back the layers of what they got right and wrong and why, and open up questions about what modern physicians might perhaps benefit from learning if they look back towards the half-forgotten past...Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcast Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

If you study psychology, you might have learned about the 4 temperaments of personality. The four temperaments believe that people's behavior and personality are caused by the type and amount of fluids in their bodies. These fluids are categorized into 4 temperaments personality: Choleric, sanguine, phlegmatic, and melancholic. The four temperaments personality test is obviously outdated now, but if you're interested in learning more about the history of personality ideas, then this video is definitely for you! As always, the references are in the descriptions.

In this week's bonus episode, Martin talks us through the ghastly crimes of Burke and Hare - with a side serving of the history of medicine!Part of the "Something Wicked" series, we start by chatting through the headlines of the Burke and Hare killing spree, including the Enlightenment-era craze for celebrity surgeons and 'anatomisation.' We then discuss how Scotland's fraught religious history enabled leaps forward in natural philosophy, necessitated the invention of things like 'mort safes,' and how ideas like Humorism and Sensibility had their roots in Ancient Mesopotamian and Ancient Egyptian concepts like 'Flow Theory,' curses, and exorcism.After chatting through Ancient Greek and Roman developments in medicine, including the Hippocratic Oath, and Medieval concepts like Leechbooks, we then loop back to the popularity of "operating theatres" - places where surgeries were performed for paying customers - and how the profit motive drove demand for corpses. Ideally ones that were still warm. And why this, in turn, inspired Burke, Hare, and the surgeon Robert Knox, to make some ghastly leaps in logic, the consequences of which were still being felt well into the 20th century...The Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more.

The word 'hypochondria' has travelled from meaning physical ailments in a particular region of your body, to ones that are only in your mind. It has been in fashion, and thoroughly out; it has been subject to a range of treatments; it has been lucrative for quacks; and it's a very understandable form of anxiety - which I have, and so does Caroline Crampton, author of the new book A Body Made of Glass: A History of Hypochondria. Content note: this episode contains a lot of discussion about health anxiety. There are mentions of cancer, doctors and hospitals - but not detailed accounts of medical conditions or treatments.  Get the transcript of this episode, and find links to more information about the topics therein, at theallusionist.org/hypochondria.

In This Episode: We're starting another mini-series on healing modalities and medicines. This week we talk about Traditional Chinese Medicine and do a run through of the five elements and their associated energy meridians (which are related to organs as well.) We discuss metal, earth, fire, water and wood and compare it to the elements in Humorism of the Ancient Greeks and Ayurvedic dosas. We will delve into Ayurveda next week. Kalyna discusses dietary choices to balance each element, personality traits and the seasons associated and the careers that may align with a certain elemental profile. Most people align most closely to one element but we are all made up of all elements. TCM's core focus is to balance the energy of the body, Yin and Yang forces, to create harmony in the body.

Cinema chains in the UK and the US are planning to start opening up again next month, even though Coronavirus cases still remain high in both countries, and in some areas are spiking to dangerous new highs. Emily and Ed go over the economic and moral quandary that theatres find themselves in, particulary AMC and its (quickly reversed) decision to not force customers to wear face masks because they didn't want to get caught in a "political controversy." They also talk about the Watchmen TV series and how it became even more resonant mere months after it finished airing, the unexpected new Daria spinoff Jodie, and the passing of Ian Holm. 00:00:00 - 00:15:39 - Intro 00:15:40 - 00:42:41 - News 00:42:42 - 00:59:45 - Emily & Ed discuss the reopening of movie theatres 00:59:46 - 01:04:54 - SRS Recommends & Outro   Links City Guys' album of Final Fantasy VII covers can be found here and is pay what you like Effie Brown's article in the Hollywood Reporter is here The Office Hours episode with Limmy can be watched on YouTube (Limmy section starts at 1:02:30) You can sign up for Seth Simons' newsletter Humorism here

Ancient Greek and Roman philosophers developed a system of medicine known as Humorism to describe the inner workings and makeup of the human body. Hippocrates described a system consisting of four humors in the body, with each one determining the temperament of an individual. The more of one substance a person had, the more likely he/she was to have certain traits. In other words, a person’s faults, errors, and crimes were due to his/her bad blood.In Romans 5, Paul reminds us that “while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly … God shows His love for us in that while we were still sinners, Chris died for.We as humans do have a blood problem, but it’s not the kind defined by the humorist movement. We are a group of sinners, not because of bad blood, but because of our sinful natures. And the only thing that will bring us true forgiveness and eternal life is the good and perfect blood of Jesus that was sacrificed for you and for me.

This episode is a Grab-bag, it contains three segments that serve as follow-ups to the three most recent episodes of Here Be Monsters.Part 1: Crickets on TapeIn this segment, Jeff takes apart his tape recorder and installs a knob to help him slow down the tape without using digital wizardry in attempts to de-muddy the waters after HBM029: Do Crickets Sing Hymns. He bought some more crickets and slowed the cassette slowed down to 1/3 speed. The results were telling, and surprising.In that episode, we were talking about the confusion surrounding the bit of audio called God's Cricket Chorus by Jim Wilson. In this segment we'll clear up exactly what is known and exactly what is not about God's Cricket Chorus and its derivative works.Also, a correction to a mistake we made in Episode 29 about how digital audio is constructed for our ears. In that episode we represented the final product of digital audio to be choppy, yet moving by too quick for our ears to notice its choppiness. This is NOT the case. In fact, digital audio is always converted back to analog before it hits our ears. This is done with a device called a Digital to Analog Converter (DAC). Here's an article that explains this process very simply (Page 4 is where the good stuff starts). Big thanks to the two commenter s who pointed out this error.Want to try stretching some crickets yourself? Download this same set of cricket songs we used for the shows. Part 2: Conventional Wisdom on the Future of the Four HumorsIn HBM027: Balancing Act, Here Be Monsters producer Lina Misitzis delved into the rich history of the Four Humors, which was, for thousands of years, the way much of world understood medicine, the body and the universe as a whole.While we never heard from Alain Touwaide in that episode, he was central to our research of traditional medicine. He's the director of the Institute for the Preservation of Medical Traditions in Washington DC.He spoke with Lina about the foggy past and likely future of Humorism. Part 3: The Resting Places of Medical CadaversIn HBM028: Johnathan's Cadaver Paintings, Johnathan Happ, a grad student at the University of Washington, visits one of the cadaver labs on campus. He spends a lot of time there, studying the bodies, so that he can make paintings of them in his studio. While that episode has a lot of information about the cadaver labs themselves. We never got the chance to talk about what happens to those bodies after their 3 year rotation in the lab. So, in this segment, Jeff goes out to the Evergreen-Washelli Cemetery in northern Seattle, where most of those bodies come to rest. Special thanks to two employees of Evergreen-Washelli who helped out with a lot of the background for this piece: Sandy Matthie (Reception at Columbarium) and Brian Braathen (Funeral Home Manager)Music: The Black Spot ||| Half Ghost

For thousands of years, Western Medicine thought it had itself figured out. Everything came in fours. There were four sensations, four fluids in the body, four kinds of people, and four elements making up the world. They were all related. There wasn't one without the other. Everything was a balancing act, and it was called Humorism.In recent history, vaccines, sterilization, and other modern treatments have pushed Humorism out of the picture. But traditions ingrained in culture, science, and religion for thousands of years don't just vanish. While few people still eat lemons to balance their yellow bile, or willingly drain their blood at the barber shop, elements of Humorism still play into modern society. They can be hard to see, but trust us, they're here.Music from: Lucky Dragons ||| Nym ||| The Black SpotHey! Review HBM on iTunes! And like us on Facebook!
