Among them is the moral essay De indolentia (On Avoiding Distress), a text long deemed lost, and the De propriis placitis (On My Own Opinions), a doxographical piece with a complex textual tradition, up to that point known only through a corrupt medieval Latin translation and some passages preserved in Greek. This volume provides a new critical edition of the two Galenic treatises, which represents a significant improvement on earlier editorial attempts by offering more accurate readings of the codex, including supplementation of previously unrestored lacunae, and many emendations to thorny passages owed to physical damage in the manuscript as well as perhaps careless scribes and/or the poor quality of their model. The more authoritative version of the two texts is accompanied by fresh English translations and brief introductions, making both works widely accessible not just to Classicists but also to scholars and students of ancient medicine, ancient philosophy and Roman Imperial literary culture. 610 $aGalen. 610 $aRoman Imperial Period. 610 $aethics. 610 $amedicine. 700 $aGalen$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0739718 702 $aPolemis$b Ioannis, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aXenophontos$b Sophia, $4ctb$4https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/ctb 702 $aXenophontos$b Sophia, $4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996545358703316 996 $a?On Avoiding Distress? and ?On My Own Opinions?$93602720 997 $aUNISA
