Anitdoties

With the topic of known poisons I plan to also look at the antidotes that go with them

Healing

  • Some poisons it seems were used in medicine for cures to certain illnesses
  • I plan to look into this further to see what illnesses and how the use of poison affected those who were treated with it.

Arsenic

  • So far this is the only poison I have found to be used in medicine
  • An example would be how Avicena used arsenic with honey and other ingredients to improve the mucous membrane and help to cure lung problems and skin disease

This paper will look at the different uses of poison in the medieval Celtic region concentrating on Wales and Ireland.

  • The Fourth Branch of the Mabinogion
  • The Welsh poem of Tristan and Isolde
