Trotula is a very well-known 12 th century text, originally written for male medical practitioners treating gynecological or obstetrical issues, which reveals a great deal about how people perceived sickness, health, and the circle of life during the medieval era. The modern perception of medieval medicine is generally that it was crude and barbaric, and there was very little or no knowledge of “real” medical science at all in the Middle Ages. But, to what extent is this actually true? If we take a closer look at medieval medicine, we can see that while some of the ideas about illness and treatment regimens may have been misguided, they were nonetheless based on very extensively researched pseudo-scientific theories dating back to the Classic Age. Some of these theories were so predominant in medical science as to define Western medicine for over one and a half millennia.
