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 "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.Corpus Medicorum Graecorum EpidemicsEarly works to 1800Arabistic.Galen.History of medicine.Medicine in antiquity.Epidemics610Galenusauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut739718Vagelpohl Uwe, edthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910645954103321Galeni In Hippocratis Epidemiarum librum VI commentariorum I–VIII versio Arabica3561117UNINA
