dc.description.abstract | Little is yet known about either the numbers or structure of early modern Welsh
medical practitioners, or their broader place within urban life. Through case
studies of seventeenth-century Cardiff and Wrexham, this article explores the
nature of medical practice in Welsh towns. It argues that even small towns
sustained a range of medical occupations and businesses. There were strong
links between towns and hinterlands. Despite the lack of medical guilds and
companies, training was available through apprenticeship. Welsh practitioners
were part of trading networks both within and outside Wales and active in
office-holding and urban governance. | en_GB |
