Welcome to Latin Therapy

Hello! Welcome to the new blog from the Latin Therapy group at the Department of History and Philosophy of Science, at the University of Cambridge.

We are an informal Latin reading group, meeting weekly to discuss and translate texts from the history of science, technology and medicine.  Over the ten years the group has been running, we have tackled texts on subjects ranging from Classical natural history to 19th-century railways.

We hope this blog will help us share our work with a wider audience and perhaps elicit new ideas and collaborations.  If you have any interest in Latin and the history of science, please get in touch with us!

Use the links on the side to find out more about the Group and our publications.
