[Galeni] Definitiones medicae / [Galen] Medizinische Definitionen

The collection of medical definitions from the late first or early second century AD, which has come down to us under the name of Galen, was published for the last time in 1830 in the complete edition of Galen's works by C. G. Kühn, who essentially only adopted the text from Chartier's edition of 1679. Based on a meticulous reworking of the manuscript tradition, this edition offers for the first time a scholarly text that has also undergone significant changes in the arrangement and inventory of definitions. A German translation makes the work available to a wider readership. Detailed indices make the volume accessible.
