Medical historiography is not ‘cognitively innocent’, similarly to other movements of its kind. Like all the others, it can also be considered more as a self-reflection of the environments examining the past, rather than showing ‘objective truth about the past’, which is an image constructed by a historian. This vision is sometimes imbued with values ​​present in the environments which the historiographer represents, referring them to the past. It is also subordinated to these objectives, whom, sometimes temporarily, it is to serve. Both are historically and culturally variable. On the one hand there are, for example, the ideals of medicine, standards of rationality and the different perspectives of perceiving a patient. On the other hand, the most common educational goals, subordinate to the medical historiography. The multiplicity of such cultural factors, as a consequence, presents a curious ‘distorting mirror of medicine’.

Shi‘ite Islam posits that medical technologies such as cloning or genetic engineering are not a change in God’s creation and cannot be forbidden for this reason. The study presents the main religious‑ legal arguments for this opinion and the difference between the view of Shi‘ite theology and jurisprudence in the interpretation of the term “change in God’s creation”. Jurisprudence emphasizes the spiritual nature of change (deviation from monotheism) over physical change and supports it with other methodological principles. This definition excludes the analysed medical techniques, and therefore jurisprudence does not consider them a change in God’s creation. The conclusions are supplemented by specific legal arguments concerning the most discussed areas, i.e. cloning, genetic engineering, gender reassignment and cosmetic surgeries, and briefly compared with the Sunni position.

В данной статье рассматривается медицина арабского мира в период ее расцвета от пророка Мухаммеда до начала XIII века и появление европейских исследовательских центров. В золотой век ислама медицина этого периода быстро развивалась. В то время было создано множество терапий и препаратов, применяемых в несколько измененном виде и по сей день.

В статье ставится задача показать поперечное разделение медицины в исламском мире с VII по XIII век, обозначив наиболее важные достижения в этой области.

Druga połowa XIX wieku zaznaczyła się wzrostem zainteresowania ze strony Polaków osiągnięciami austriackiej medycyny. Wówczas to na kartach specjalistycznych czasopism ukazało się kilkadziesiąt artykułów przedstawiających, jak w monarchii austriackiej rozwija się edukacja przyszłych lekarzy, funkcjonuje szpitalnictwo. Osobne publikacje poświęcono farmacji, konferencjom, wystawom, weterynarii. Dowodziły one, że austriaccy przedstawiciele świata nauki rozumieją potrzebę pogłębiania wiedzy medycznej, roztaczania opieki zdrowotnej nad potrzebującymi. Znaczna część autorów mogła przekonać się naocznie, jak funkcjonuje austriacka służba zdrowia. Studiowali oni bowiem w Wiedniu lub brali udział w konferencjach urządzanych w tym mieście.

The second half of the 19th century manifested itself with the increase of Poles’ interest in the achievements of the Austrian medicine. It was then that a few dozens of specialist articles described how the future doctors’ education developed and how the hospitals functioned in the Austrian monarchy. Several separate publications were devoted to pharmacy, conferences, fairs and veterinary medicine. All publications demonstrated that Austrian representatives o f the scientific world understood the need for deepening medical knowledge or providing health care for those in need. A considerable number of authors could see with their own eyes how the Austrian health care worked because they either studied in Vienna or participated in the conferences organized in this city.
