Even modern historians, doctors, and psychologists can't work out what this was all about. At the time most medical treatments, even for relatively straightforward complaints, were useless or actually injurious. A complex thing like this? No chance. They were fumbling around in the dark. I suppose that if they encouraged them to dance people would 'get it out of their system'. Presumably, they had already tried asking them to stop! | |
