In this essay, I explore medical humanities practice in the United States with descriptions offered by fifteen faculty members who participated in an electronic survey. The questions posed focused on the desirability of a core humanities curriculum in medical education; on the knowledge, skills, and values that are found in such a curriculum; and on who should teach medical humanities and make curriculum decisions regarding content and placement. I conclude with a call for a renewed interdisciplinarity in the medical humanities and a move away from the territorial aspects of disciplinary knowledge and methods sometimes found in medical humanities practice.
在本文中，我借助参与电子调查的15位教员提供的描述，探讨了美国的医学人文实践。所提出的问题聚焦于医学教育中核心人文课程的可取性；该课程中所包含的知识、技能和价值观；以及应由谁来教授医学人文并就课程内容和设置做出决策。我的结论是呼吁在医学人文领域重新实现跨学科性，并摆脱医学人文实践中有时存在的学科知识和方法的领域局限性。
