The Doctrine

The idea for "The Doctrine" came to me while reading about the early days of public anatomical theaters in Europe. I was fascinated by the intersection of science and religion during the 17th century, when medical knowledge was advancing but still heavily restricted by Church doctrine.

What struck me most was how women were completely excluded from this scientific revolution. I wondered: What if a determined young woman found a way to participate? The character of Clara emerged from this question—a butcher's daughter with practical knowledge of anatomy who yearns for something more than her predetermined future.

Setting the story in Leiden in 1612 felt perfect. During its Golden Age, the Dutch Republic was experiencing both religious tensions and scientific advancement. The city's famous university was attracting scholars from across Europe, creating an environment where new ideas could flourish—albeit cautiously.

At its heart, this is a story about a young woman who disguises herself as a man to attend Europe's first public dissection, only to discover her mentor is hiding revolutionary medical knowledge that challenges the Church's teaching. As Clara navigates the dangerous world of scientific discovery, gender barriers, and religious scrutiny, she must make difficult choices about truth, loyalty, and her own future.
