Medical Pluralism with Hannah Chisholm
2021/03/16
Studies (provided by Hannah):  Welch, John. 2003. Ritual in Western Medicine and Its Role in Placebo Healing. Journal of Religion and Health volume 42, pages 21–33 https://link.springer.com/article/10....​ Evans-Pritchard, E. 1965. Witchcraft, Oracles and Magic Among the Azande. Clarendon Press  Meza, J. P. 2018. Diagnosis Narratives and the Healing Ritual in Western Medicine. Routledge Studies in Health and Medical Anthropology. Edition illustrated. Routledge.   One thing that Hannah didn't cover in the video, although she mentioned it off-camera, was the idea of two levels of causation that sometimes appears in personalistic paradigms. There is the immediate cause (for example, the accidentally-thrown spear that puncture's somebody's body), but also the 'efficient' cause (the supernatural force that caused that specific person to be hit by that specific spear).     A good (if a bit formally-worded) online translation of 'wið færstice': https://heorot.dk/suddenstitch.html​   Hannah's instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hannahmaria...​
A Conversation in Old English and Old Norse
2021/03/16
Thank you very much indeed to Dr. Jackson Crawford for allowing me to be involved in this project after we got in contact a few weeks ago - I suspect many people here are already subscribed to him, but I would highly recommend his in-depth analyses of Old Norse literature and language, backed up by years of academic experience, as well as the occasional more reflective video or piece of poetry set in the beautiful Rocky Mountains.
