Senses of humour

Gregory (1994: 68) states that Aristotle’s notions of the humours were combined with medicine. The humours dominated medicine and psychology from the 5th century, remained important in the seventeenth century, with echoes remaining in modern psychiatry. A person’s temperament originally meant the balance of the four humours: yellow bile, black bile, blood, and phlegm. For Hippocrates, imbalance was disease.
