This book offers a critical Arabic edition, annotated English translation, introductory study, and two-way glossaries of the famous dispensatory composed around the middle of the 12th century CE by the Nestorian physician Ibn at-Tilmīḏ. The dispensatory, recognized as a masterpiece already by mediaeval contemporaries, soon after its appearance became the pharmacological standard work in the hospitals and apothecs of Baghdad and the wider Arab East, replacing, after almost 300 years, the vademecum of Sābūr ibn Sahl. The dispensatory of Ibn at-Tilmiḏ marks the apogee and the conclusion of centuries of medico-pharmacological development in the Arab world, and it is therefore absolutely essential for a critical understanding of mediaeval Arabic medicine and pharmacy in particular, and premodern science in general.

The present volume offers the first critical edition of the medieval Arabic translation of Galen's Commentary on Book 2 of the Hippocratic Epidemics produced by Hunayn ibn Ishaq (d. ca. 870). The edition is based on all extant Arabic textual witnesses, including the Arabic secondary transmission. The Greek original of this text is lost; the Arabic translation is therefore the only intact witness to this important work. The number and extent of "ations 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.

وفي حين أنهم لم يتدخلوا حتى الآن إلا بشكل هامشي في اقتصاد الحج إلى مكة المكرمة، إلا أن الكارثة الإنسانية الناجمة عن وباء الكوليرا في الفترة 1865-1866 دفعت بعض القوى الاستعمارية مثل فرنسا وبريطانيا العظمى، التي سرعان ما انضمت إليها إيطاليا، إلى التعامل مباشرة مع مسألة تنظيم السفر وإقامة رعاياهم المسلمين في المدن المقدسة في الحجاز. للمرة الأولى في تاريخ الإسلام، كان الحج تحت إشراف قوى غير مسلمة. وفي حين أن الهدف المعلن للتدخل الأوروبي في اقتصاد الحج كان الحماية الصحية للحجاج الوافدين من القارة الأوروبية، إلا أنه كان يخفي المزيد من المخاوف السياسية. ويتمثل التحدي إذن في جعل الحج «قابلا للسيطرة». وفي هذا الصدد، كانت الحرب العظمى وضم الحجاز من قبل الحكومة السعودية في عام 1925 خطوات هامة في إعطاء القوى الاستعمارية الوسائل لبناء «سياسات حج». وهكذا يمثل الثلاثينات من القرن الماضي ذروة تدخل القوى الاستعمارية الأوروبية في تنظيم الحج في مكة المكرمة، التي ساعدت على تحويلها لأداة تأثير دبلوماسي واستعماري. Alors qu'elles n'intervenaient jusqu'ici que marginalement dans l'économie du pèlerinage à La Mecque (hajj), la catastrophe humanitaire constituée par l'épidémie de choléra de 1865‑1866 a conduit certaines puissances coloniales comme la France et la Grande-Bretagne, bientôt rejointes par l'Italie, à se saisir directement de la question de l'organisation des déplacements et du séjour de leurs sujets musulmans dans les Villes Saintes du Hedjaz. Pour la première fois dans l'histoire de l'Islam, le hajj a ainsi été supervisé par des puissances non-musulmanes. Si l'objectif affiché de l'intrusion européenne dans l'économie du hajj reste la protection sanitaire des pèlerins et partant du continent européen, il n'en cache pas moins des préoccupations plus politiques. L'enjeu est alors de rendre le hajj « gouvernable ». À cet égard, la Grande Guerre et l'annexion du Hedjaz par le gouvernement saoudien en 1925 constituent des étapes importantes en donnant aux puissances coloniales les moyens de construire de véritables « politiques du pèlerinage ». La décennie 1930 marque ainsi…
