Early Modern Ireland and the world of medicine

SOCIAL HISTORIES OF MEDICINE

Series editors: David Cantor and Keir Waddington

Social Histories of Medicine is concerned with all aspects of health, illness and medicine, from prehistory to the present, in every part of the world. The series covers the circumstances that promote health or illness, the ways in which people experience and explain such conditions, and what, practically, they do about them. Practitioners of all approaches to health and healing come within its scope, as do their ideas, beliefs and practices, and the social, economic and cultural contexts in which they operate. Methodologically, the series welcomes relevant studies in social, economic, cultural and intellectual history, as well as approaches derived from other disciplines in the arts, sciences, social sciences and humanities. The series is a collaboration between Manchester University Press and the Society for the Social History of Medicine.

This collection of chapters stems from a conference on The Medical World of Early Modern Ireland, 15001750, held at The Long Room Hub, Trinity College Dublin (TCD), in September 2015. I am grateful for the assistance offered at TCD by Ms Sarah Barry, Dr Joseph Clarke, Dr David Ditchburn and Professor Jane Ohlmeyer.

The conference took place as part of a Wellcome Trust-funded project (Ref. No. 097782/Z/11/Z) at the University of Exeter: The Medical World of Early Modern England, Wales and Ireland, c.15001715. The chapters in this volume by John Cunningham and Peter Elmer were supported by this grant and the chapter by Alice Marples was supported by an AHRC-funded studentship under grant AH/J00989X/1.

Considerable thanks are due to the project team at Exeter and those associated with its work, especially Professor Jonathan Barry, Dr Justin Colson, Dr Peter Elmer, Mrs Claire Keyte, Dr Hannah Murphy, Dr Margaret Pelling, Dr Ismini Pells, Dr Patrick Wallis and Dr Alun Withey.

My colleagues at the School of HAPP, Queens University, Belfast, foster a scholarly environment that has helped me considerably in the tasks of writing and editing.Alan R. Hayden very kindly provided the image that appears on the book cover.

Dr David Cantor has been a most supportive series editor, for which I am grateful. Thanks also to the staff at Manchester University Press, as well as to the two readers who offered many helpful suggestions for improvements to the text.

Finally, I wish to thank all of the contributors to this volume for their patience and diligence in preparing their work for publication.
