Resum

This article provides evidence of a Jewish physician who probably learned from Master Mauro in Salerno at the end of the 12th or beginning of the 13th century. It's not very likely that this Jewish student knew Latin so well that he was able to read all the Articella with commentaries. He may have learned medicine in Salerno without reading medical texts in Latin at all, and the same may have been true of some of the Christian students as well. Medicine was an "art," a craft in many respects, not necessarily learned from books.
