Condizione: Gut. XI, 215 S. / p., Abb. altersgemäß sehr guter Zustand / perfect condition for age - BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE Hippocrates, fl. 400 B.C. -- Our knowledge of the historical Hippocrates is almost completely dependent upon Plato. From the Protagoras and the Phcedrus we learn that Hippocrates was a contemporary of Socrates, that he was a native of Cos, and an Asclepiad, a member, that is, of a family or guild that traced its origin to the God of Healing. He was well known both as a practitioner and a teacher of medicine, and he held that knowledge of the body depends upon the knowledge of the whole man. There is also the implication in Plato's words that Hippocrates travelled from city to city and that, like the great sophists and rhetoricians, he came to Athens to practise and to teach his art. -- The figure of the legendary Father of Medicine soon replaced the historical Hippocrates. Although there is no evidence from his own time that he left any writings, within a century medical works were being attributed to him, especially those emanating from the famous medical school of Cos. The writings which now go by the name of the Hippocratic Collection consist for the most part of the early Greek medical treatises which were brought together by the Alexandrian scholars of the third century. The Collection is large and heterogeneous and although all were attributed to Hippocrates, the genuineness of some of them was questioned even in antiquity. -- The Alexandrian accounts of the life of Hippocrates are rich in detail. He was born in the year 460 B.C., descended from Hercules as well as from Aesculapius. He studied medicine and philosophy from famous teachers and travelled over the whole Greek world, curing a Macedonian tyrant of the malady of love, driving out the plague from Athens by lighting fires in the public squares, refusing to go to Persia to treat the King, and dying at a great age - the dates range from 375 to 351 B.C. - at Larissa in Thessaly, where his tomb could still be seen in the second century, a.d. The honey of the bees that swarmed there was said to be healing to the mouth, a tribute to the man who, according to Celsus, was as eminent for eloquence as for knowledge. -- For succeeding generations Hippocrates has been, as he was for Galen, the legislator of medicine, the ideal physician "who with purity and with holiness lived his life and practised his art." -- BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE Galen, c. A.D. 130- c. 200 -- Little is known of Galen after this appointment. He certainly devoted much of his time to writing. He left five hundred treatises written in clear Attic Greek. One of them argued "That the best Physician is also a Philosopher," and many of his own works dealt with philosophical problems. In his De Libris pro-priis he mentions one hundred and twenty-four philosophical treatises, which include commentaries on the Categories and Analytics of Aristotle, and on the Timceus and Philebus of Plato. He also wrote five treatises on Ancient Comedy. Only fragments remain of his non-medical writings. Of the surviving medical works some eighty or ninety are believed to have been written by him; sixty-five are of doubtful authorship or certainly spurious. Fifteen of his commentaries on the Hippocratic works are extant. -- Galen was apparently in Rome during the fire of 191, when his library burned, and he was still lecturing and practising during the reign of Pertinax. He may have spent his last years as physician-in-ordinary to the emperor. He died at the turn of the century. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550 fadengeh. Orig.-Kunststoffband.

This excellent selection of Hippocratic treatises shows the range of writing and thought. Some are technical works on embryology, surgery or anatomy; others are addressed to a lay audience; all are informed with the spirit of inquiry. G.E.R. Lloyd's authoritative introduction puts them into their contemporary context and assesses their later influence. [Source: Goodreads] l Penguin Classics. London 1983. Pb. 380 pp. Good.
