Hey, guess who started this episode?? Yep, it was Jess again! She takes us back to the 12th Century to meet an awesome woman who was a famous and recognized doctor of her time…and then was subsequently erased from history by male doctors and historians who studied ancient texts and thought, ‘this couldn’t possibly have been written by a woman!’ Fortunately, in the 2000s, more study was done and Trota’s name and history in medicine is becoming known once more!
Hids also does a bit of time travel to talk about another amazing woman whose work has occasionally been attributed to her husband, although we are fairly certain he would have championed her imagination and writing prowess. Mary Shelley is now well-known for her writing of Frankenstien, or The Modern Prometheus, and indeed may have even invented the science-fiction genre!
