Renaissance Science, Magic, and Medicine in Harry Potter’s World Exhibit

April 24

Take a step into the world of Harry Potter with the National Library of Medicine’s exhibit Renaissance Science, Magic, and Medicine in Harry Potter’s World! The traveling banner exhibition and accompanying website explore the plants, animals, and magic featured in the sensationally popular book series, which were influenced by Renaissance thinkers and traditions that played an important role in the development of Western science. Using the NLM’s History of Medicine collection, Renaissance Science, Magic, and Medicine in Harry Potter’s World explores the intersection of the magical and the real world.

 

The National Library of Medicine produced this exhibition, event image, and companion website.
