Marion students promote medical legacy of Chinese herbs
|
|
Amanda Respess, assistant professor of history at The Ohio State University at Marion, gave students the opportunity to get hands-on with history. The class, which focused on gender and sexuality in Middle Period China, allowed students to learn about how women’s health issues were treated using herbs.
With the support from the East Asian Studies Center and The Medical Heritage Center, students were able to access a newly translated edition of the Compendium of Materia Medica, or Běncǎo gāngmù (本草纲目), as their primary resource. This encyclopedia gave students information about the historical uses of herbs and other medicines in China from antiquity through the Sui, Tang and Ming dynasties.
