Overview
Volumes

Herausgegeben von der Berlin-Brandenburgischen Akademie der Wissenschaften

Die Corpora der antiken Ärzte (Corpus Medicorum Graecorum, Corpus Medicorum Latinorum) haben die Aufgabe, die erhaltenen Schriften aller griechischen und lateinischen medizinischen Autoren, einschließlich der Fragmente aus nicht vollständig überlieferten Werken, vom 5. Jahrhundert v. Chr. bis zum Ausgang der Antike in textkritischen Editionen mit Übersetzungen (wahlweise in Deutsch, Englisch, Französisch, Italienisch) und erschöpfenden Namen- und Wortverzeichnissen vorzulegen. Die Ausgaben können um Kommentare erweitert sein, die den Text in sachlicher, sprachlicher und textkritischer Hinsicht erschließen.
Für die Konstituierung der edierten Texte, die in ihrem Charakter als historisch-kritische Ausgaben zuverlässige Quellen für die Erforschung der Geschichte der antiken Medizin bereitstellen, werden sämtliche bekannten primären und sekundären Überlieferungsträger ausgewertet, was sich zum einen auf die mittelalterlichen Handschriften und die frühen Drucke, zum anderen auf Exzerpte und Übersetzungen in lateinischer, arabischer, hebräischer oder syrischer Sprache bezieht. Die Ausgaben sind so angelegt, dass sie über einen langen Zeitraum hin im internationalen Maßstab die wissenschaftlich maßgebenden Editionen darstellen.

book: Hippocratis De affectionibus / Hippocrates, On Affections

Book Ahead of Publication 2023

Hippocratis De affectionibus / Hippocrates, On Affections

Pilar Pérez Cañizares

A considerable number of ancient medical texts has not been yet edited drawing on the whole manuscript tradition. This is also the case of the treatise On Affections, a medical book traditionally transmitted as a part of the Hippocratic Corpus. This volume offers the first critical edition of On Affections that considers the whole manuscript and printed tradition. It also includes an exhaustive account of the history of the text, a translation into English and a commentary.

On Affections is unique among the Hippocratic writings in that it presents itself as a medical handbook for intelligent lay readers and not for physicians. The book includes a systematic discussion of diseases, and has clear affinities with other Hippocratic texts. Furthermore, it also contains a catalogue of foods and their properties, the combination of these two topics being unparalleled in the rest of the extant treatises.

References to other existing or yet-to-be-written medical books on different topics such as eye diseases, women diseases, tertian and quartan fevers and the recipe collection called On Drugs hint at the wide circulation and availability of written medical knowledge at the beginning of the fourth century BCE.

[Galeni] Definitiones medicae / [Galen] Medizinische Definitionen

Jutta Kollesch

Volume 5/13,2 in this series

The collection of medical definitions from the late 1st or early 2nd century A.D. that survived under the name of Galen last appeared in 1830 in the complete edition of Galen’s works by Kühn. Based on a meticulous reappraisal of the handwritten tradition, the present edition offers for the first time a scholarly text that has also undergone significant changes in the arrangement and inventory of definitions.

Christina Savino

Volume 5/12,6 in this series

The Hippocratic aphorisms are a crucial source of information about ancient medicine, and Galen’s commentary on them a key to their interpretation and reception in later times. But until now, this wide-ranging and fascinating commentary has largely been overlooked, and never edited. This first critical edition of the sixth book includes a translation and commentary in Italian.

Galeni De symptomatum differentiis

Beate Gundert

Volume 5/5,1 in this series

Die zum ersten Mal in einer textkritischen Ausgabe vorgelegte Abhandlung des Arztes Galen von Pergamon "Über die Verschiedenheit der Symptome" gehört zu einer Gruppe von vier Schriften, in denen in subtiler Weise eine Theorie über die Krankheiten und Symptome entwickelt wird. Die Hauptgesichtspunkte sind dabei die Verschiedenheit und die Ursachen dieser beiden Erscheinungen. Als Bestandteil des größeren Schriftenkomplexes hatte der Text – auch auf dem Weg über die orientalische Tradition – für den medizinischen Unterricht bis in die Frühe Neuzeit hinein eine herausragende Bedeutung. Der besondere Rang der Schrift spiegelt sich auch in der Breite ihrer Überlieferung wider. Außer den recht zahlreichen griechischen Handschriften, die in einem komplizierten Verwandtschaftsverhältnis zueinander stehen, waren für die Herstellung des Textes auch eine arabische und mehrere lateinische Übersetzungen auszuwerten. Die von der Herausgeberin dem Text beigegebene Übersetzung ist die erste Übertragung dieser Schrift ins Deutsche. In dem ausführlichen Kommentar wird, besonders auf der Grundlage des reichen Parallelmaterials bei Galen, eine instruktive Einzelinterpretation der in dem Text angeschnittenen Probleme dargeboten.

The present volume offers the first critical edition of the medieval Arabic translation of Galen's Commentary on Book 6 of the Hippocratic Epidemics produced by Ḥunayn ibn Isḥāq (d. ca. 870). The edition is based on all extant Arabic textual witnesses, including the Arabic secondary transmission.

Only about two thirds of the Greek original of this text is extant; the Arabic translation is therefore the only complete witness to this important work. The number and extent of quotations from this commentary in medieval Arabic medical writings, which are documented in the introduction to the volume, demonstrate that it became a crucial source for the development of medicine in the Islamic world. It also gave rise to a wide range of didactic writings which illustrate its importance for medical teaching.

The English translation aims to convey some of the flavour of the Arabic text. The volume also contains comprehensive indices that map out the terminology and style of the translation.

Hippocratis De humoribus

Edidit, in linguam Germanicam vertit, commentatus est

Oliver Overwien

Volume 1/3,1 in this series

The Hippocratic treatise De humoribus (On the Humors) has provided scholars from antiquity to the modern era with major interpretive problems. In particular, its general appearance as a series of medical terms and phrases has raised questions about its authorship and purpose. More detailed study has now shown it to be the work of a doctor from circa 400 BC, who created it from different sources and individual notes, which were preliminary work toward a larger treatise.

This book presents the first critical edition of De humoribus based upon all known textual witnesses in both Greek and Arabic. It provides a German translation of the Greek Text with detailed notes to facilitate the interpretation of this often difficult text. The Introduction surveys information about the textual tradition and interpretive history of this work and discusses its structure, purpose, author, and date.

Hippocrate La nature de l'homme

Jaques Jouanna

Volume 1/1,3 in this series

Die zu der Sammlung der hippokratischen Schriften gehörende Abhandlung nimmt im Corpus eine Sonderstellung ein, da sie mit ziemlicher Sicherheit einem bestimmten Autor zugewiesen werden kann: Polybos, dem Schüler und Schwiegersohn des Hippokrates. In der Auseinandersetzung mit monistischen Auffassungen, die in der zeitgenössischen Philosophie und Medizin verbreitet waren, entwirft der Autor, seinerseits in Anlehnung an philosophische Vorbilder, als medizinisches Konzept ein Vier-Säfte-Schema, nach dem Blut, Schleim, gelbe und schwarze Galle die wesentlichen Bestandteile des menschlichen Körpers bilden. Diese Theorie ist in der Folgezeit zur Grundlage der humoralbiologischen Vorstellungen geworden. Die in ihrer Thematik nicht einheitliche Schrift, die in das letzte Jahrzehnt des 5. Jahrhunderts v. Chr. zu datieren ist, schließt mit einem Abschnitt, der Grundsätze der gesunden Lebensweise behandelt. Die 2. Auflage der Edition ist ein Nachdruck der Erstveröffentlichung von 1975. Durch umfangreiche Addenda et corrigenda wird dem aktuellen Forschungsstand Rechnung getragen. Über den Editor: Jacques Jouanna ist Professor für Gräzistik an der Sorbonne, Paris. Durch seine zahlreichen Publikationen und Textausgaben hat er sich als Spezialist auf dem Gebiet der hippokratischen Medizin ausgewiesen.

Hippokrates Über die Umwelt

Hans Diller, Carl Werner Müller

Volume 1/1,2 in this series

Die unter dem Namen des Hippokrates überlieferte Schrift über Luft-, Wasser- und Ortsverhältnisse, die im ausgehenden 5. Jahrhundert verfasst wurde, gehört zu den klassischen Texten der griechischen Medizin. Beschrieben wird die Wirkung von Umweltfaktoren auf den Gesundheitszustand der Menschen und auf die Ausprägung ihrer ethnischen Merkmale. Geographische Lage, Klimabedingungen und Beschaffenheit des Trinkwassers werden als Ursachen erfasst, die Gesundheit und Krankheit beeinflussen. Einem Trend seiner Zeit folgend, hat der Autor neben den Umwelteinflüssen auch die Unterschiede in den Verfassungsformen für die ethnischen Besonderheiten der Mentalität verantwortlich gemacht.
