課程目標:
本課程旨在透過西方藝術史中的畫作，探索藝術與醫學的交集，從藝術作品的表現中洞察疾病、醫療以及人類身心狀況的多重面向。課程不僅著眼於藝術作品的傳統分析，更從畫作的細節中揭示當代疾病的象徵和醫學的“密碼”。我們將從理性與感性兩個層面入手，引導學生品味經典藝術作品背後的醫學與人文故事，增進對醫學人文關懷的理解。學生將能更深刻地領會醫學與藝術之間的微妙聯繫，並以開放的視角理解藝術表達對疾病和健康的詮釋，最終促使學生對醫學人文的認知更加全面、細緻和人性化。
課程內涵:
西方藝術史與醫學的結合
本課程首先回顧西方藝術史中的重要時期，並探討其與醫學的內在聯繫，特別是在文藝復興時期的作品中。此時期的義大利藝術家推崇古希臘羅馬文化，並以反映人性與自然界的關聯為主題，從而在畫作中反映了醫學與身心健康的早期探索。學生將學習如何在名畫中尋找疾病、治療與病痛的象徵意涵。
1.文藝復興與醫學診斷的啟示
在文藝復興時期，藝術家不僅關注人體的美學，也開始細緻地呈現身體的病理變化。透過具象表現與解剖學的發展，這一時期的藝術作品不僅是美的呈現，也是早期醫學知識與技巧的隱喻。我們將解析一些具有醫學意涵的名畫，例如達·芬奇的《人體解剖圖》，探索藝術如何傳達疾病的象徵，並反映當時醫學診斷的發展。
2.藝術與疾病的象徵表達
學生將學習如何通過藝術作品中的病痛表現來解讀疾病的社會與文化意涵。這包括疾病的隱喻、醫療的象徵意涵以及藝術對疾病的情感表達。課程將以不同時期的藝術作品為例，探討藝術如何影響我們對醫療過程、醫生形象及病人經歷的理解。
3.當代藝術中的醫學表現
透過當代藝術家對醫學和健康的探索，學生將更深入了解當今社會對於疾病、療癒、身體與心理健康的討論。如何從當代藝術的作品中看到對現代醫學進展的反思，尤其是在疾病面對方式、醫學技術與倫理爭議等方面的藝術表現。
4.跨學科的思維訓練
本課程強調藝術與醫學跨學科的學習方法，幫助學生從多角度理解藝術創作背後的醫學知識與情感意涵。課程將促進學生的批判性思維，使其能夠分析並解讀藝術作品中的醫學元素，並將其應用於日後的學術研究或藝術創作中。

Course objectives:
This course aims to explore the intersection of art and medicine through paintings in Western art history, and to gain insight into the multiple aspects of disease, medical treatment, and human physical and mental conditions through the expression of artistic works. The course not only focuses on the traditional analysis of artworks, but also reveals the symbols of contemporary diseases and the "code" of medicine from the details of the paintings. We will start from both the rational and emotional levels, guide students to appreciate the medical and humanistic stories behind classic works of art, and enhance their understanding of medical humanistic care. Students will be able to more deeply understand the subtle connection between medicine and art, and understand the interpretation of disease and health through artistic expression from an open perspective, which will ultimately lead to a more comprehensive, detailed and humanistic understanding of medical humanities.
Course content:
The combination of Western art history and medicine
This course begins by reviewing important periods in the history of Western art and exploring its intrinsic connection to medicine, particularly in Renaissance works. Italian artists during this period admired ancient Greek and Roman culture and used themes that reflected the connection between human nature and nature, thus reflecting early explorations of medicine and physical and mental health in their paintings. Students will learn how to find symbolic meanings of disease, treatment, and pain in famous paintings.
1. The Renaissance and the Enlightenment of Medical Diagnosis
During the Renaissance, artists not only paid attention to the aesthetics of the human body, but also began to present the pathological changes of the body in detail. Through the development of figurative representation and anatomy, the artworks of this period are not only representations of beauty, but also metaphors for early medical knowledge and techniques. We will analyze some famous paintings with medical connotations, such as Leonardo da Vinci's "Anatomy of the Human Body," exploring how art conveyed the symbolism of disease and reflected the development of medical diagnosis at the time.
2. Art and the symbolic expression of disease
Students will learn how to interpret the social and cultural implications of illness through representations of illness and pain in artworks. This includes metaphors of disease, symbolic connotations of medical treatments, and emotional expressions of disease in art. The course will use art works from different periods as examples to explore how art affects our understanding of medical processes, images of doctors, and patient experiences.
3. Medical representation in contemporary art
Through contemporary artists' explorations of medicine and health, students will gain a deeper understanding of today's society's discussions of illness, healing, and physical and mental health. How to see reflection on the progress of modern medicine from contemporary art works, especially artistic expressions in aspects such as the way to deal with disease, medical technology and ethical controversies.
4. Interdisciplinary thinking training
This course emphasizes the interdisciplinary learning method of art and medicine, helping students understand the medical knowledge and emotional implications behind artistic creation from multiple perspectives. The course will promote critical thinking in students, enabling them to analyze and interpret medical elements in works of art and apply them to future academic research or artistic creation.
