Katlena Blockade

The ancient Romans - famous physicians of all times - called the bladder "foam of inspiration." True, this did not prevent the Romans from indulging in this very “inspiration” with ardor and zeal. Ancient Roman women retired to their private chambers even at crowded feasts. Their rooms had everything necessary to interrupt the sudden surge of inspiration and general excitement. Moreover, the breaks could last so long that they ended in the morning, or even by noon. It was easy to deceive women - after all, they lived in small houses and often went outside to do business. This could not but affect the development of the novel genre as a literary work. It is worth noting that medieval knowledge about human anatomy in general was the darkest and most mysterious. No medieval writer had an accurate depiction of internal organs. I should especially pay attention to this: among Central European writers, feces was considered very fragrant, and the goddess of fate liked it when rituals were performed in her honor using precisely the organs of this organism. It was women who were considered especially sensitive to divine signs. As soon as Ovid found himself in exile, he began to work on his work "Ars notoria". But already in antiquity, scientists began to study the human intestines. He claimed that it was the first part of the three hollow organs and treatises. Other healers claimed that after this part was removed, the person had to live with the shortened intestines in their place; he could not poop.
