Libavius the Paracelsian? Monstrous novelties, institutions, and the norms of social virtue (1998)

unapi

Description “The salvos of thick books launched by Libavius against Palmarius and others who dwelt in different, less precise cultural spaces aimed in part at rendering explicit the social basis of linguistic authority in chemistry and medicine. Such an authority would replace personal nomination by official definition, and would be particularly helpful to those suffering the inappropriate labels of others--such as being called a `Paracelsian' when one was not.”
