Materia Medica in a Multilingual Context

Seit Max Weber dient der Begriff zudem als soziologisches Interpretament. Auf ein Charisma oder auf Charismen zu refle…
Al-Maˇgūsī's Kitāb Al-Malakī and Its Latin Translation Ascribed to Constantine the African
Constantine the African's significance as the first important translator of medical texts from Arabic into Latin is indisputable due to the fact that his work contributed decisively to the enlargement of medical knowledge in the Latin West. Among his considerable œuvre the translation of al-Maˇgūsī's Kitāb al-Malakī under its Latin title Pantegni , the first real medical compendium in Latin, holds a particularly important position because of its …
