Philosophy And Dietetics In The Hippocratic On Regimen A Delicate Balance Of Health Barto by Bartoš, Hynek 9789004289550, 9004289550 instant download after payment.

This book offers the first extended study published in English on the Hippocratic treatise 'On regimen', one of the most important pre-Platonic documents of the discussion of human nature and other topics at the intersection of ancient medicine and philosophy. It is not only a unique example of classical Greek dietetic literature, including the most elaborated account of the micro-macrocosm and phusis-techne analogies, but it also provides the most explicit discussion of the soul-body opposition preceding Plato. Moreover, Barto argues, it is a rare example of an extant medical text which systematically draws on philosophical authorities, such as Heraclitus, Empedocles and Anaxagoras, and which had a decisive influence on both physicians, such as Galen, and philosophers, most notably Plato and Aristotle.
