Palabras clave:

Medicina babilónica, libro de diagnóstico, brujería, mano (de los dioses, demonios, fantasmas), encantamientos médicos

Resumen

El enfoque habitual de los escritos médicos babilónicos es asumir un corpus monolítico de datos presentados en recetas y listas de medicamentos o colecciones de síntomas para el pronóstico y el diagnóstico. A pesar del largo período de documentación de la medicina babilónica, no se ha intentado analizar la adquisición de conocimientos médicos acadios como un proceso dinámico, que también necesitaba adaptarse a expectativas cambiantes. El presente artículo examinará la medicina babilónica mientras busca la cacofonía de diferentes voces, terminando con la intrigante pregunta: ¿quién controla la narrativa?
