Welcome to join ELBOW Talks, Talk 1 / Season 4!
The theme of the fourth and final season (spring 2026) of ELBOW Talks is ”Healing & Medicine”. The season will have six excellent talks around the theme.
The first talk of the season is held by Doctoral Researcher Mónica Morado Vázquez (European University Institute). She will give us a talk about ”Feeling, Seeing, Judging: Embodied Evidence and the Limits of Medical Authority in Early Modern Spain”.
Abstract:
This presentation examines what happened in the early modern Spanish courtrooms when the conflicting practices and ways of knowing regarding sex collided. When theory clashed with the messiness of everyday life, categories were (re)invented and sexual (in)determination raised wider epistemic and ontological questions about evidence, definitions, and experience. Situated at the intersection between histories of knowledge, sex, and medicine, Inquisitorial vindicates sexual (in)determinacy as a productive lens to explore how diverse ways of knowing, understanding and interacting with porous bodies and ideas co-existed in seventeenth-century Spain.
