About this deal

One of the most popular compound medicines was theriac, which had an animal connection in both its ingredients and what it treated and was widely manufactured and supplied by medieval apothecaries. The drug was prized as a panacea for a variety of ailments from snake and reptile bites to expelling dead foetuses and nephritic and intestinal conditions. The list of ingredients was very long, including mumia, castoreum, pitch, poppy and the ground-up flesh of either vipers or the tyrus snake. The latter was the venomous serpent from Jericho, which also gave its name to the ‘snake-like’ type of leprosy, as seen above. The rabid dog, with its poisonous saliva, was considered to be one of the mostly deadly of venomous beasts. In Antiquity, hydrophobia was the most famous symptom. Other symptoms, mostly derived from the patient’s own imagination, start to make an appearance in late antiquity but were developed and expanded on by medical writers in Arabic and became hugely influential in the later Western medical tradition. Leonina was ascribed to the lion and yellow bile was given as its cause. The signs of leonina were the loss of eyebrows and a bulging forehead, accompanied by yellow skin and urine. The symbolic terminology of two of these sub-types, elephantia and leonina, had a very long history. The Ancient Greek physician Aretaeus discussed in detail the rough skin of the elephant when detailing the former, and how the wrinkles on the forehead of the latter resembled a lion or an angry person. Avicenna would similarly remark that leonina made the patient’s face look terrifying (and added that this form was mostly commonly seen in lions themselves). For Gilles de Corbeil in the late-twelfth century, the ferocity of the lion was itself a metaphor for this terrible disease (Demaitre 2007: 91–3).

The great commentator of Avicenna, Gentile da Foligno (d. 1348), questioned the possibility of the imagination of the bitten patient producing these forms, arguing: Anatomical texts of animals for didactic purposes were studied for parallels to human anatomy. One text was notable for its inclusion and influence. The Anatomia porci ( Anatomy of the Pig) or Anatomia Cophonis ( Anatomy of Copho) was written in Southern Italy (most likely at Salerno) at the end of the eleventh or beginning of the twelfth century. It was at times included in the Articella, the collection of medical texts that was a core part of the university curriculum. It is a short text detailing the dissection of a pig and maintains that the internal structure of this animal most resembles human anatomy. It instructs readers on how to conduct their own porcine dissection and thus understand the human body using the body of the pig (O’Neill 1970: 115–24). Animal analogy could also extend to the senses and humours. For the thirteenth-century Dominican writer Thomas de Cantimpré, certain animals surpassed man in each of the five senses: the eagle and the lynx in their sharp sight, the vulture in its sense of smell, the ape in its sense of taste, the spider in the sense of touch, and both the mole or the wild boar were man’s superior when it came to hearing (Thomas de Cantimpré 1973: 106). These analogies were not definitive; for some, touch was most perfect in man in comparison to animals. The scheme laid out by Pliny the Elder in the first century gave taste and touch to man, with the eagle having vision, the vulture smell and the mole hearing (Woolgar 2006: 27). It takes its name from the elephant, just as the elephant surpasses other animals in size and strength and ugliness, so this variety is greater and stronger than the others, as regards both its cause and cure. Likewise, as the elephant is a spotted animal ( maculosum), so in elephantia (but this is common to all forms of leprosy).In recent years, there has been a rush to convert everything from cowsheds to garages into family homes. Some work well and, sadly, some do not. We pride ourselves on creating really sympathetic conversions, using a mix of traditional and modern materials and completely revitalising the property. We always try to retain something of the character of the original building, whilst bringing an exciting and completely fresh look and feel appropriate for its new use. This can be a very successful way of investing in property and we are often prepared to partner with owners in adding real value to an under-utilised property asset.

They’re so big it’s seems like they should just be in plate no matter what class they are A well-conceived and well-built loft conversion, or dormer installation, can completely transform a home. Depending on the property, the conversion can simply add an office 'in the roof', or it can convert a three-bedroom house into a very substantial, five-bedroom home. And while these changes can take place in a surprisingly small amount of space, it is not a job for the DIY enthusiast. Wooden roof beams often need to be replaced with steel supports. The new construction must comply with building regulations and sometimes local planning permission will be required. Nobody has more experience in this type of work than Concept Construction Group, and we can also help with designing and planning your conversion. The rabid patient adopting canine behaviour and barking is remarked on by Rhazes (Muhammad ibn Zakariyyā al-Rāzī, 841–926) who, apart from suggesting therapeutics for rabies, described the behaviour of his afflicted patients. One of his patients barked like a dog at night and soon died. Another patient saw water and was seized by trembling, which ceased once the water was removed. Another refused to drink water, despite having the desire, as he claimed that it contained the entrails of dogs and cats (Rhazes 1544: 194–6).

By the end of the Middle Ages, four animals were linked with each one of the four humours. This appears to have originated in the fourteenth-century Gesta Romanorum (Deeds of the Romans) which recounts that after the Flood, in an attempt to cultivate the wild grapevine, Noah takes the blood of four animals (a lion, a lamb, a pig, and an ape) and pours it on the roots of the plant. The resulting wine, which makes Noah drunk, is sweetened by the blood of the animals. The origins of the story are very nebulous. A similar tale appears in the Midrash Tanhuma, a Late Antique collection of rabbinical material with the same animals, although the source that the Gesta Romanorum used is unclear. The Libellus de imaginibus deorum (Little Book on the Images of the Gods, c.1400) notes that the god Bacchus was depicted by the Ancients with a pig, lion and an ape at the foot of a vine, stressing the connection of these animals to drunkenness. The Calendrier des Bergers (published by Guyot Marchand in 1493 and, ten years later, translated into English as the Kalender of Shepherdes– see Figure 0.3) connects a humoural complexion to a type of drunkenness associated with each animal. Thus, the choleric has ‘lion wine’ and ‘when he is drunk he wants to dance, make noise and fight’. The sanguine has ‘ape wine, the more he drinks the more cheerful he becomes and pursues the ladies’. The phlegmatic has ‘sheep wine … when he is drunk he seems wise and more intent on his business than before’. The melancholic has ‘swine wine’ and ‘when he is drunk he wants only to sleep or to dream’ (Janson 1952: 239–50). Worgen I think look best in leather. They’re animalistic hunters, it’s pretty fitting to wear animal hides, if they even wear clothes at all Some races just fit certain armors better than others… What races fit which armor types best in your opinion? O man, remember that thou were a liquid of semen, and that as thou art receptacle of filth, though shalt also be food for worms. For after death, a worm is born from the tongue, which represents the sin of the tongue; thread-worms are born of the stomach to signify the sin of gluttony; a scorpion is born of the spine to mark the sin of lust; a toad is born of the brain to show the sin of pride.Dwarves I think fit plate pretty well. They’re like strong, immoveable mountains. Even if they are small In addition, animals and man could perceive sensations in different ways. For sight, animals had their eyes turned to the ground, while man had eyes high in the head so that he might look towards heaven. The sight of the basilisk, one of the most feared venomous serpents, could cause death merely by looking upon its victim. The sound of its hiss was similarly deadly (although its enemy the weasel was immune from its actions). Man could not compete with the night vision of creatures such as owls and vultures, while cats could see in the dark thanks to light shining from their eyes. The uncertain and transitory light of twilight was known as inter canem et lupum (between dog and wolf), when clear identification of beasts was difficult. For smell, apart from the vulture, other animals like the bear, elephant and the fox, were also considered to have an excellent sense of smell. In the bestiary tradition the panther has a marvellous odour, which attracts all the other animals and symbolizes Christ (Woolgar 2006: 148–150). 2
