Summary:
"It is the Dark Ages, and the Church is fighting against 'black magic'. The medical knowledge of Greek physicians like Hippocrates and Galen had been lost to the medicine of medieval Europe. In 11th-century England, traveling barber surgeons attempted to supply medical care to the ordinary population, often at the risk of the Church persecuting them for witchcraft."--Container.
