History of Medicine Society Presentation

Event Date:
Wednesday, February 11, 2015, 7:00 pm
Location:
SDU Main Building
Room:
Faculty Lounge
This talk explores the burgeoning multi-disciplinary field of Narrative Medicine (NM) and asks whether it could be effectively applied in university writing courses to strengthen public health benefits. Among the topics examined are the origins of NM within the medical humanities; what is meant by 鈥渘arrative鈥 in NM; how NM connects the Arts, Humanities, and Sciences; and, ultimately, what NM has to do with undergraduate critical literacy practices that potentially could be integrated across the curriculum to promote greater quality and equality in health and health care for all. All are welcome!
