{"title":"Healing Virtue: Saludadores versus Witches in Early Modern Spain","authors":"María Tausiet","doi":"10.1017/S0025727300072392","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1017/S0025727300072392","url":null,"abstract":"Said one devil: ‘‘To see good people, look at the saludadores, who . . . claim they do possess virtue.’’ They took offence and said that it was true that they possessed it. And to this replied [another] devil: ‘‘How can it be that virtue is found in wanderers who do naught but blow?’’ The absence of any clear dividing line between the fields of medicine and religion in early modern Spain becomes particularly evident when looking at the figure of the socalled saludador (literally, a healer, or health-giver, from the verb saludar, to heal). As the term implies, these individuals claimed to have healing powers—powers that stemmed from the possession of a divine gift or innate grace bestowed upon only a chosen few. The concept of ‘‘virtue’’, understood as both an ability and a moral guarantee, expressed better than any other the widely held belief that disease and sin (and, therefore, health and spiritual perfection) were inextricably linked. Rather than operating at an individual and self-reflective level, this implicit assumption meant that both the causes of and cures for many illnesses were attributed to the qualities of good or evil of certain external agents supposedly endowed with extraordinary powers. Of these, the most prominent were, without doubt, witches and saludadores. The success of saludadores was based not only on curing disease, but also on pointing to its cause, and in particular, to discerning the influence of evil spells and witchcraft.","PeriodicalId":74144,"journal":{"name":"Medical history.

I should like to see the Zagazig boring carried to the bottom or at any rate until Miocene fossils are brought up by the borer – the results of this boring should then be carefully discussed and the ways & means of getting another made elsewhere considered – If we leave off before we touch Miocene bottom at Zagazig we shall have spent a good deal of money without getting any definite result. However it is something to know that there is no bottom at 66 feet. 1 I expect that fellow Figari Bey 2 drew a good deal on his imagination. I return all the papers herewith. The smashing of the G.

{"title":"Madrid Hospitals and Welfare in the Context of the Hapsburg Empire","authors":"Teresa Huguet-Termes","doi":"10.1017/S0025727300072409","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1017/S0025727300072409","url":null,"abstract":"Over the last twenty-five years, the tendency of historians to see extreme distinctions between Catholic and Protestant health care provision has faded away, mainly thanks to the works of Brian Pullan on Venice and Jean-Pierre Gutton on Lyons. It has become generally accepted that Catholic areas pursued efficient and highly selective welfare policies, especially as regards the control of public begging, in order to achieve long-term social improvement by giving the poor both an education and opportunities to work.1 In order to centralize and co-ordinate the resources available, welfare services were improved by the creation of institutions under the auspices of the Church and lay authorities.2 Public begging was prohibited, and relief was limited to deserving local inhabitants and restricted to the period before they could be set to work, while the itinerant poor were given only the temporary assistance they required. It has also been generally assumed that Madrid was included among the towns where a programme of reform led by lay elites following the guidelines of the poor law tract De subventione pauperum (On Assistance to the Poor) by Juan Luis Vives (1526) prevailed from the second to the fourth decades of the sixteenth century. In accordance with this programme, hospitals for beggars and other “undeserving” poor were founded, supposedly reaching a peak in the seventeenth century. In the confines of such institutions, unworthy individuals could be punished if they resisted the obligation to work.3 However, measures for poor relief have primarily been studied in cities with a strong communal tradition and a sophisticated system of urban government. It is these studies, simplistically extrapolated to less well-researched cities like Madrid, that have provided the basis for the picture of the principal characteristics of the Catholic system of welfare.4 But what was the true situation in a villa—Madrid—which was essentially a creation of the early modern period, and which was designed by the Hapsburg dynasty to be the centre of government of the largest Catholic empire history has ever known? It is clear that both the history and character of Madrid (a small town that had become the capital and the home of the royal court in 1561) are very different from those of the republics, principalities and cities of Spain, Italy and France. The latter were endowed with municipal dynamism, strong manufacturing, trade and guild traditions, and possessed systems of relief that have attracted the attention of historians and have generally been regarded as pioneering. The aim of this paper is to summarize current research on poor relief in Madrid, including the policy towards the sick, between 1561 and 1700. After briefly reviewing the current state of research, two particular features will be focused on, the assistance given to the sick poor, and that which all other categories of poor people received. It will be argued that, in contrast with other Cath","PeriodicalId":74144,"journal":{"name":"Medical history.
