Sağlık Bağlamında Edebiyat, Sanat ve Tarih

Sağlık Bağlamında Edebiyat, Sanat ve Tarih (Literature, Art and History in the Context of Health) presents a rich, interdisciplinary study that examines the phenomenon of health beyond its conventional medical boundaries from the perspective of the social sciences and humanities. This work, largely composed of revised papers from the "International Conference on Health with its Different Dimensions," focuses on topics of critical importance, especially in an era defined by the global health crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic. The book deeply analyzes the role of literature as a tool for reflecting and understanding individual and social traumas , the healing effects of art on health, and the positive contributions of fine arts to disadvantaged groups. Simultaneously, it employs a historical lens to look at health and disease, examining the societal impacts of major epidemic diseases in history in relation to the present day. By placing the concept of "health literacy" at the center of these approaches, this collection serves as an enlightening resource for academics, students, and health professionals, aiming to provide a holistic perspective on health by strengthening the bridge between medicine and the social sciences.
