Announcing a new blog devoted to the Medical Humanities
Corpus: Conversations about Medicine and Life
Corpus links practitioners from a range of disciplines in conversation about health and illness. We publish a wide range of perspectives on health and medical practice, especially reflective or creative work which fleshes out the biomedical version of illness and disability.
Our contributors include doctors, nurses and other health professionals, as well as historians, linguists, English scholars, classicists, poets, musicians, dancers and artists.
Corpus is edited by University of Otago historian Professor Barbara Brookes and writer Sue Wootton.
