Tegni Galieni, 12th century

 Part
Identifier: MS 163/ff. 24r-71r

Contents

ff. 24-71 of MS 163 contains another text of medicine that was fundamental to the medieval curriculum, and was usually bound in the textbook-like volume the 'Articella', along with the text by Ioannitius, in ff. 1-20 of MS 163. This second text of the Articella, the Tegni is Galen's summary of the Hippocratic works on medicine.

The text begins on f. 24r with the prologue to Galen's Tegni: Incipit Tegni Galieni Prologus. Tres sunt omnes doctrine que ordine habentur. Prima quidem ex finis notione...

The text proper follows the prologue, and ends on f. 71r with the words et qualia determinabo orationem in eis.
