The medical literature of ancient Greece has been much studied during the 20th century, particularly from the 1970s on. In spite of this intense activity, the search for manuscripts still relies on the catalogue compiled in the early 1900s by a group of philologists led by the German historian of Greek philosophy and medicine Hermann Diels. However useful the so-called Diels has been and still is, it is now in need of a thorough revision. The present five-tome set is a first step in that direction. Tome 1 offers a reproduction of Diels’ catalogue with an index of the manuscripts. The following three tomes provide a reconstruction of the texts contained in the manuscripts listed in Diels on the basis of Diels’ catalogue. Proceeding as Diels did, these three tomes distinguish the manuscripts containing texts by (or attributed to) Hippocrates (tome 2), Galen (tome 3), and the other authors considered by Diels (tome 4). Tome 5 will list all the texts listed in Diels for each manuscript in the catalogue. The present work will be a reference for all scholars interested in Greek medical literature and manuscripts, in addition to historians of medicine, medical book, medical tradition, and medical culture.

Greek medical manuscripts have been catalogued differently over the centuries. Based on the inventory of their texts in Diels' lists, this tome offers the first standardized catalogue. When appropriate, manuscript location or shelfmark according to Diels have been corrected and updated to reflect the current state of collections worldwide. This tome is the first step toward a full catalogue that will renew understanding of the Greek medical tradition and ultimately lead to the much-awaited New Diels.

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.

"Médicament fétiche des empereurs romains, la thériaque, précieux antidote composé de très nombreux et coûteux ingrédients dont l'opium et la chair de vipère, était réputée efficace contre les venins et les poisons et supposée guérir toutes les maladies. Sa préparation complexe a donné lieu à une importante littérature où les médecins grecs rivalisent de science et d'habileté pour adapter la fameuse recette mise au point par Andromaque, médecin de Néron. À côté du traité sur les Antidotes où le grand médecin Galien de Pergame expose comment il obtint la charge de préparateur impérial de la thériaque sous Marc Aurèle, le corpus galénique nous a conservé deux traités apocryphes consacrés au célèbre électuaire : après la Thériaque à Pison parue dans la CUF en 2016, le petit traité sur la Thériaque à Pamphilianos vient donc compléter cet ensemble consacré à cette préparation emblématique de la pharmacologie antique et dont la recette, transmise d'occident en orient et jusqu'en Chine, a continué d'être préparée dans les officines jusqu'à la fin du XIXe siècle."
