After a brief review of the life and work of Paracelsus (1493-1541) the five spheres of existence of the healthy as well as the sick individual are characterized (theory of the 5 entities). Founding on this theoretical orientation of existence Paracelsus constructs his "house of medicine" which is resting on 4 pillars: on "Philosophia" as natural and human science, on "Astronomia" as structured chronologic order, on "Alchimia" as science of the preparation of materials and on "Physica" providing the ethical prerequisite for medical practise. Paracelsus believes the physician to represent an educated expert applying standards to the other faculties as well; in his eyes medicine represents the "cornerstone of university".
在简要回顾了帕拉塞尔苏斯（1493 - 1541）的生平与著作后，阐述了健康个体和患病个体存在的五个领域（五要素理论）。基于这种关于存在的理论导向，帕拉塞尔苏斯构建了他的“医学大厦”，这座大厦建立在四根支柱之上：以“哲学”作为自然科学和人文科学，以“天文学”作为有结构的时间顺序，以“炼金术”作为材料制备科学，以“物理学”为医学实践提供伦理前提。帕拉塞尔苏斯认为医生是一位受过教育的专家，也将标准应用于其他学科；在他看来，医学是“大学的基石”。
