Aetius of Amida: Books on Medicine

11.05.2017 - 12.05.2017

Workshop des Teilprojekts A03 "Der Transfer medizinischer Episteme in den ‚enzyklopädischen‘ Sammelwerken der Spätantike" (Leitung: Prof. Dr. Philip van der Eijk)

Aetius of Amida (6th century CE) is the creator of a large medical encyclopaedia in 16 books, written in Greek and consisting almost exclusively of excerpts taken from earlier Greek medical writers (such as Galen). His work is a major testimony to the transfer of medical ideas in late antiquity. We are studying Aetius’ methods of copying, abbreviation, compilation and reconfiguration of earlier medical material. We are also preparing critical editions and annotated translations of parts of his voluminous work.

In this second dedicated workshop, we will make further preparations towards the publication of the translation and notes of book I of Aetius’ work. This book deals with pharmacology, and it consists of a summary of Galen’s theory of simple medicines, followed by a discussion of drugs derived from plants.

Participants: Christine Salazar (HU Berlin), Matteo Martelli (BBAW), Sean Coughlin (HU Berlin), Eric Gowling (Glasgow University), Piero Tassinari (Cardiff University), John Wilkins (University of Exeter), Ricarda Gäbel (HU Berlin), Lucia Raggetti (FU Berlin), Irene Calà (HU Berlin) and Philip van der Eijk (HU Berlin).
