Magic and Science

His hero is worth it. Born about 1493 near Einsiedeln, Switzerland, Philip Theophrastus Aureolus Bombast von Hohenheim — also known as Paracelsus (meaning, “beyond Celsus,” a prominent Roman doctor) — was the son of an alchemist and physician who taught at a mining school. The verifiable details of his life are scant, but he seems to have grown up poor, was tutored by his father, educated at monastic schools, and studied medicine and chemistry at the universities of T?bingen, Ferrara and Vienna. As an army surgeon he also saw the world, serving throughout Europe, Russia and the Levant. In 1527, he accepted the post of town doctor at Basel, and his reputation was quickly made when he saved the life of the famed publisher Johann Froben, whom local university physicians had given up for lost. Predictably, the town’s medical establishment tried to marginalize him, but his lectures, based on experience rather than the authority of ancient texts, attracted large crowds. After being expelled as a troublemaker from Basel, he spent the remainder of his life on the move… He was quite a character, quarrelsome and defiant, with eccentricities galore, and his scorn for the medical establishment was fierce. “In the most distant corner [of the world],” he once declared, “there will not be one of you on whom the dogs will not piss. ” As a natural philosopher, he accepted the four elements of Aristotle but postulated three principles — sulfur, mercury and salt — that by their nature command the form everything in the world assumes. By active principles, he meant something akin to essences or Platonic ideas. His medical remedies were thereby linked to “magic” in the highest sense. At the same time, he was a practical pioneer. In surgery, he sensibly advocated “minimal intervention” such as “keeping the wound clean”; was the first to advocate chemotherapy (the use of chemical drugs); treated (successfully at times) syphilis, the plague, paralysis and chronic ulcers; recognized suicidal depression, obsession and hysterical blindness as forms of mental illness; linked the respiratory ailments of miners to their industrial environment; and insisted on the chemical examination of urine to diagnose disease.

It started with Karrie Webb holing out a wedge from 116 yards on the final hole at the Kraft Nabisco Championship, screaming in delight and sprinting into the arms of her caddie. She wound up beating Lorena Ochoa with a birdie on the first extra hole, and the playoff nearly included Michelle Wie until the 16-year-old lipped out a 10-foot birdie putt. Then came another playoff at the LPGA Championship, where Webb got a dose of her own medicine. She was on the verge of capturing the second leg of the Grand Slam when Se Ri Pak hit a 4-iron utility club from 201 yards and took a good hop.
