康熙朝宫廷中的西洋医事活动

The Activities of Western Doctors at the Court of the Kangxi Emperor

康熙时期西洋医学源源不断传入宫中。西洋医学的传入是通过传教士这个媒介来进行的.他们凭借在宫中的一系列医事活动,向清廷展示了一种全新的医学理念和治疗方法。西洋医学之所以在宫中有立足之地,取决于康熙皇帝对西洋医学所持的科学、客观的认同态度。

During the reign of the Kangxi Emperor a continuous stream of Western doctors entered the palace, their entry effected through the medium of Western missionaries. Their medical work in the palace provided the court with new concepts of medicine and healing. Their success in establishing themselves at court was determined by the Kangxi Emperor's objective approval of the science on which Western medicine relied.
