Abstract:

Medicine is firmly rooted in the sciences and derives much of its great power and influence from these roots. In this paper the author, with a career in clinical medicine, argues that there must also be room in medical practice for literature and poetry. He uses examples to build a case for this inclusion helping both patients and doctors in ways which are not in conflict with science but rather allow a much more complete and compassionate picture of the human interactions that are the essence of medicine. The paper argues that a greater understanding of literature and poetry written both by those inside medicine and those observing medicine from the outside can help in crucial ways to guide and sustain doctors, and thus their patients, when wielding the extraordinary power of scientific medicine.

“礼尚往来”:医学文学与诗歌

摘要:

医学牢固地植根于科学,并从这些根源中获得了很大的力量和影响。在这篇论文中,从事临床医学工作的作者认为,文学和诗歌在医学实践中也必须有空间。他使用示例为这种包容性建立了一个案例,以不与科学相冲突的方式帮助患者和医生,而是让人们更完整、更富有同情心地描绘了作为医学本质的人类互动。这篇论文认为,对医学界人士和从外部观察医学的人所写的文学和诗歌有更深入的理解,可以在关键的方面帮助指导和支持医生,从而在运用科学医学的非凡力量时帮助他们的患者。
