Fortuna, Stefania, "Biblioteche dei traduttori di testi medici (secolo XV-1525)", Nordic Journal of Renaissance Studies, 22 [=Medicina Mentis Essays in Honour of Outi Merisalo on the Occasion of her Sixty-Fifth Birthday 9 May 2024, Pade, Marianne - Magionami, Leonardo - Niiranen, Susanna - Roling, Bernd - Sarasti, Raija, eds.] (2024), 87-102.

Resum: From the eleventh to the sixteenth century, Latin translators of ancient medical texts from Arab and Greek contributed to the evolution of medicine and science by making hitherto unknown sources accessible in the West. This article examines the libraries used by, or belonging to, translators of Greek medical texts from the fifteenth century up to the printing of the first editions of Galen in 1525 and Hippocrates in 1526. Medicine attracted the attention of humanist translators only in the 1490s. Among them were Niccolò Leoniceno, Giorgio Valla, and Ermolao Barbaro, who owned outstanding libraries with Greek manuscripts, partially still preserved.
