520 | _aThis paper examines the spatiality of medicine in Greek cities and particularly in classical Athens. The analysis first focuses on the iatreion, the “medical office”, to establish its use and the kinds of care that it provided. Beyond the medical treatises, other documents reveal a surprising function of the waiting room as a place for male encounters, even flirtations. The paper then examines home visits, and the reasons why a patient might be bedridden, either at the patient’s home or in someone else’s. Finally, the third part suggests hypotheses as to the location of medical offices in the Piraeus and Asty. | ||
