- Resum
- This chapter offers a history of Byzantine Galenism between the ninth and fifteenth centuries. The question of Galenism in Byzantium is complicated because, on the one hand, Galen's corpus was transmitted and preserved by Byzantine copyists, but, on the other—and in contrast to the Arab world and the Latin West—there were no known Byzantine Galenists of any significance. Building on four examples, Simeon Seth in the eleventh century, Ioannikios in the twelfth century, John Zacharias Aktouarios in the fourteenth century, and Demetrius Angelos in the fifteenth century, the chapter demonstrates that Byzantine Galenism should not be understood as a spontaneous or isolated process but as an intercultural phenomenon in the context of a dialogue between the Byzantines and their Arab and Latin neighbors.
