Vela i Aulesa, Carles, "Au service du comte d'Empúries: l'approvisionnement en drogues, épices et confits d'une cour seigneuriale", dins: Andretta, Elisa - Nicoud, Marilyn (eds.), Être médecin à la cour (Italie, France, Espagne, XIIIe -XVIIIe siècle), Florència, SISMEL - Edizioni del Galluzzo (Micrologus' Library, 52), 2013, pp. 105-127.

Resum

Between 1378 and 1381, the apothecary Francesc ses Canes carefully recorded in his accounts book all purchases ordered by John, Earl of Empúries, duríng his stay in Barcelona. This fact allows us to study the supply of drugs, sptces and comfits of a noble houschold revealed in all its complexity through this documentation. Besides purchasing spices and comfits for his meals and celebrations and for the personal supply of his family, friends, and guests, the Earl of Empúries paid the medical expenses incurred by his family, his household officers and servants, and even by sick people staying in hospitals in the city where he temporarily resided.
