Abstract

This book presents a new edition, with translation, introduction and commentary, of two short medical texts, both transmitted in the Hippocratic Corpus but surely neither by the historical Hippocrates. The two works differ considerably in nature and origins: On Sight (Part 1) is a sketchy surgical manual on eye afflictions, perhaps originating in the African continent, and On Anatomy (Part 2) is an allusive account of basic human anatomy, perhaps originating in north Greece. Each text is interpreted in its own right and in the wider context of Hippocratic and other medical writing. Both content and language are closely analysed. The conclusions reached impact on important questions relating to the origin, constitution and dissemination of the Hippocratic Corpus.

Abstract

Galens Hippokratesglossar ist ein Werk von besonderem literarischem Charakter, das die Hippokratesexegese seit der Alexandrinerzeit fortsetzt. Von einer Vielzahl von Speziallexika, die im Umlauf waren, sind nur wenige Zitate erhalten. Da auch das Hippokratesglossar des Erotian aus der Zeit Neros nur in stark gekürzter Fassung erhalten blieb, ist das um ein Jahrhundert spätere Werk Galens das erste und einzige noch vollständige Werk dieser Art. Galen schöpft in reichem Maße aus den vorangehenden Lexika, und sein Werk, das von 28 Textzeugen überliefert ist, stellt das erste Beispiel einer konsequent durchgeführten Alphabetisierung dar. Von Galens lexikographischen Arbeiten ist das Glossar das einzige erhaltene Werk. Es gibt Aufschluss über seine Arbeitsweise, aber auch gelegentlich wichtige Hinweise für die Konstitution der Schriften des hippokratischen Oeuvre. This volume contains the first critical edition of Galen’s glossary of Hippocrates, the only surviving lexicographical work by the illustrious physician from Pergamon, and the first complete alphabetical lexicon in Western literature. Along with the critical text edition, the volume also includes an extensive introduction, Italian translation, comments, and indexes.

Abstract

Where should physicians get their ethics? Professional codes such as the Hippocratic Oath claim moral authority for those in a particular field, yet according to medical ethicist Robert Veatch, these codes have little or nothing to do with how members of a guild should understand morality or make ethical decisions. While the Hippocratic Oath continues to be cited by a wide array of professional associations, scholars, and medical students, Veatch contends that the pledge is such an offensive code of ethics that it should be summarily excised from the profession. What, then, should serve as a b

Abstract

Indagare ‘Ippocrate’, la sua gestazione, la sua vitalità, significa allargare lo sguardo su ciò che lo ha preceduto e accompagnato, in Grecia e nelle culture circonvicine, su un mondo mediterraneo che è luogo di scambio di idee in forma di opere letterarie o di ‘scienza’, di filosofia, religione e magia, di antropologia e politica, diritto ed economia, secondo precisi meccanismi di diffusione dei testi, la loro geografia, il consolidarsi in corpora e canoni. A quella che chiamiamo ‘medicina ippocratica’ spetta, così, il posto d’onore per chi miri alla comprensione del fertilissimo ambiente del quinto e quarto secolo a.C., un ambiente ‘scientifico’, storico, letterario, filosofico. E ad essere illuminato da una migliore conoscenza di quel paradigma medico è anche il più vasto contesto sociale e culturale del mondo greco, un percorso che ha attraversato la storia dell’Occidente: gli sforzi che gli ippocratici hanno compiuto per la conoscenza del corpo umano, della sua struttura, funzionamento, interconnessione e della sua relazione con l’ambiente esterno, ebbero sull’intero edificio del sapere antico un impatto che sarebbe stato duraturo, e avrebbe inciso in profondità. Dal Sedicesimo Colloquio Internazionale Ippocratico, un volume che ribadisce la vivacità e la ricchezza degli studi ippocratici.

Abstract

This collection of papers studies the Hippocratic writings in their relationship to the intellectual, social, cultural and literary context in which they were written. ‘Context’ includes not only the Greek world, but also the medical thought and practice of other civilisations in the Mediterranean, such as Babylonian and Egyptian medicine. A further point of interest are the relations between the Hippocratic writings and ‘non-Hippocratic’ medical authors of the fifth and fourth century BCE, such as Diocles of Carystus, Praxagoras of Cos, as well as Plato, Aristotle and Theophrastus. The collection further includes studies of some of the less well-known works in the Hippocratic Corpus, such as Internal Affections , On the Eye , and Prorrheticon . And finally, a number of papers are devoted to the impact and reception of Hippocratic thought in later antiquity and the early modern period.

Abstract

Hippocratic Recipes is the first extended study of the pharmacological recipes included in the Hippocratic Corpus. The recipes, found mostly in the gynaecological and nosological treatises, are here examined both from a philological and a sociocultural point of view. Drawing on studies in the fields of classics, social history of medicine, and anthropology, this book offers new insights into the production and use of pharmacological knowledge in the classical world. In particular, it assesses the deep interactions between oral and written traditions in the transmission of this knowledge. Recipes are addressed as texts, but the existence of ‘missing links’ in the written tradition are acknowledged.

Abstract

This volume makes available for the first time in English translation a selection of Jacques Jouanna's papers on medicine in the Graeco-Roman world. The papers cover more than thirty years of Jouanna’s scholarship and range from the early beginnings of Greek medicine to late antiquity. Part One studies the ways in which Greek medicine is related to its historical and cultural background (politics, rhetoric, drama, religion). Part Two studies a number of salient features of Hippocratic medicine, such as dietetics, theories of health and disease and concepts of psychosomatic interaction, in relation to Greek philosophical thought. Part Three studies the reception of Hippocratic medicine, especially medical ethics and the theory of the four humours, in Galen and in late antiquity.

Abstract

"We need to talk about Hippocrates. Current scholarship attributes none of the works of the 'Hippocratic corpus' to him, and the ancient biographical traditions of his life are not only late, but also written for their own promotional purposes. Yet Hippocrates features powerfully in our assumptions about ancient medicine, and our beliefs about what medicine -- and the physician himself -- should be. In both orthodox and alternative medicine, he continues to be a model to be emulated. This book will challenge widespread assumptions about Hippocrates (and, in the process, about the history of medicine in ancient Greece and beyond) and will also explore the creation of modern myths about the ancient world. Why do we continue to use Hippocrates, and how are new myths constructed around his name? How do news stories and the internet contribute to our picture of him? And what can this tell us about wider popular engagements with the classical world today, in memes, 'quotes' and online?"--

Abstract

This book demonstrates the importance of Greek medical thought in the work of Euripides. The first part of the book argues for the significance of the healing figure in Euripidean drama, while the second part analyzes the role of traditional and rationalist healing strategies in the construction of Euripidean plots and arguments. The work will be of interest to those pursuing studies in Greek drama, Greek intellectual history and Greek medicine.
