DESCRIPTION; CHARSET=UTF-8 :In his talk, Professor John Wilkins will explore ideas of food and health in Greek and Chinese thought. There are of course many differences between the two cultures, and indeed the Ayurvedic system in India. But they share an idea of the human being within a cosmic system, of the human body having a relationship with the elements that make up the world, and of the dynamic properties that foods and drugs exert on the human body when we eat and drink. There is also a shared notion of harmony in the human body and more widely which corresponds with health and good order. He will give a presentation on how the Greeks (Aristotle and Galen) thought that health was maintained, with a particular focus on taste and the four humours. http://www.exeter.ac.uk/events/details/?event=5407
