Abstract

Singulières par leur langue, leur composition et par l’ampleur de leur dessein, ces œuvres collectives (1585) inscrivent la chirurgie dans un humanisme qui conduit de la connaissance du corps à la contemplation de la nature, admirable dans son ordre comme dans ses prodiges les plus surprenants.

Abstract

How were Greek texts on the care and medical treatment of the horse transmitted from antiquity to the present day? Using the evidence of Byzantine manuscripts of the veterinary compilation known as the Hippiatrica, Anne McCabe traces the journey of the texts from the stables to the medieval scriptorium and ultimately to the printed edition. Surviving manuscripts include both magnificent presentation copies and plain ones intended for use in the field. The Hippiatrica is a rich and little-known source of information about horses, medicine, and magic. This book provides a guide to its complex history as well as a host of fascinating details, and includes colour illustrations of a number of manuscript pages.
