Crisciani, Chiara (Author)
This paper shows how in Western culture an intense interest grew about the prolongation of life, and especially so in the 13th and 14th centuries. This interest was shared by physicians, philosophers, theologians, and alchemists. The debate about this subject was particularly concerned with the medical concept of radical moisture, the condition of Adam in Eden, and the fruit of lignum vitae. Special considertion is given by this paper to the points of view held by Roger Bacon and by Ps. Lull.
