Omschrijving
A Literary History of Medicine offers a complete, annotated translation along with a new edition of the celebrated, informative and entertaining history of medicine – the first of its kind – by Ibn Abī Uṣaybiʿah (d. 1270), together with several introductory essays.
"This edition will hopefully become the standard basis for research on the ʿUyūn, especially in the Arab world. The fact that it is published open access may assist in this. The same can be said for the translation, which finally makes Ibn Abī Uṣaybiʿah’s text available in full to historians of medicine as well as other scholars who do not have access to the Arabic text. [...] All in all, the edition is a great contribution to scholarship, to be received with gratitude by a wide range of scholars." Remke Kruk, in Bulletin of the School and Oriental and African Studies 84/1 (2021) "Cette publication qui est amenée à devenir la nouvelle édition et traduction de référence des ʿUyūn al-anbāʾ fī ṭabaqāt al-aṭibbāʾ d’Ibn Abī Uṣaybiʿa, témoigne de l’importance du travail collectif pour renouveler l’approche de sources connues depuis longtemps mais dont il reste encore beaucoup à apprendre. Le principal apport de cette équipe a été de reprendre l’étude de la tradition manuscrite et d’obtenir des résultats nouveaux et utiles à l’histoire du livre médiéval." Audrey Caire, in Codicologie
