Harry Potter is coming to UM! Visit “Harry Potter’s World: Renaissance Science, Magic, and Medicine”, an exhibit on display at the Health Sciences & Human Services Library from September 18 – November 5. The exhibit uses the National Library of Medicine’s History of Medicine collections to explore the world of Harry Potter, its roots in Renaissance science, and the ethical questions that affected not only the wizards in J.K. Rowling’s books, but also the historical thinkers featured in the series. Exhibit panels present the works of 15th- and 16th-century scholars and explore their perceptions of natural philosophy, medicine, and magic. Renaissance texts are used to highlight some of the fantastic creatures and plants featured in the novels.

More information about Potter-themed events will be coming soon!
