Galen and the World of Knowledge
«'[This] will no doubt become an indispensable item in the bibliography of those working on second-century literature, medicine, philosophy and, more generally, culture.' The British Journal for the History of Science»
Galen is the most important medical writer in Graeco-Roman antiquity, and also extremely valuable for understanding Graeco-Roman thought and society in the second century AD. This volume of essays locates him firmly in the intellectual life of his period, and thus aims to make better sense of the medical and philosophical 'world of knowledge' that he tries to create.
