Petros Bouras-Vallianatos

This book offers new insights into a largely understudied group of Greek texts preserved in selected manuscripts from the Library at Wellcome Collection, London. The content of these manuscripts ranges from medicine, including theories on diagnosis and treatment of disease, to astronomy, philosophy, and poetry. With texts dating from the ancient era to the Byzantine and Ottoman worlds, each manuscript provides its own unique story, opening a window onto different social and cultural milieus. All chapters are illustrated with black and white and colour figures, highlighting some of the most significant codices in the collection.

The new catalogue discusses the collection of the Greek books by the nineteenth-century donors, re-dates manuscripts and offers the transcription of otherwise unpublished texts.

Many thanks go to the Wellcome Library Open Access Fund for covering the open access publishing costs. The Library has begun digitising its entire collection of pre-Western European manuscripts, including all Greek manuscripts, which will be available on the library’s website soon (http://blog.wellcomelibrary.org/2014/05/digitising-the-librarys-medieval-manuscripts/, accessed 18 December 2014). 276 Petros Bouras-Vallianatos Introduction The Wellcome Library currently owns sixteen Greek manuscripts.1 These can be divided into two main groups according to their provenance and date of purchase. The first group consists of five volumes (MSS 289, 354, 413, 498 and 4103), all acquired separately between 1910 and 1936, while Sir Henry Wellcome (1853–1936) was still alive. The second group forms the core of the collection and is made up of eleven codices, previously owned by the Medical Society of London [MSS M(edical)S(ociety)L(ondon) 1, 14, 52, 60, 62, 109, 112, 114, 124, 126 and 135].2 These were part of the library’s largest acquisition since Sir Henry Wellcome’s death, viz., about 10 000 books and 200 manuscripts initially transferred on long-term loan to the Wellcome Library in 1967 thanks to the efforts of its director Noel Poynter (1906–79), and finally purchased in 1984. Wellcome MSS MSL 1, 14, 52, 60, 62, 109 and 114 carry uniform bindings of gilttooled brown leather over wooden boards, with marbled tail edges and endpapers. (All their spines have been rebacked, evidently in the late nineteenth century.) Two tools used for their corner-piece ornament are identical to those on an unsigned mid-eighteenth-century binding3 and to some employed by the London bookbinder and publisher John Brindley (1692?–1758).4 MSS 52, 62, 109 and 114 are marked as having been the property of the physician and bibliophile Anthony Askew (1722–74),5 other manuscripts from whose collection have very similar bindings.6 In the 1785 sale catalogue of Askew’s library such bindings are referred to as ‘in Russian leather’ (corio russico).7 (For brevity’s sake, I have used the same designation in my catalogue.) Except for MS.MSL.135, these manuscripts can be identified in the 1785 sale catalogue. Askew is known to have bought from the physician, collector and philanthropist Richard Mead (1673–1754) all the Greek medical manuscripts that the latter had collected.8 Since no record of Mead’s acquisitions survives, 1 In addition to the Greek manuscripts, the library holds a few Greek papyri fragments (MSS 5753, 5754 and 5755); see, Vivian Nutton, ‘Wellcome papiro Oxyrhynchus 2547 e papiro Johnson’, Kos, 1, 6 (1984), 7–9, and Richard Palmer, Catalogue of Western manuscripts in the Library of the Wellcome Institute for the History and Understanding of Medicine: western manuscripts 5120–6244 (London: The Wellcome Trust, 2000), 142–4. For a history of the Wellcome Library, see John Symons, Wellcome Institute for the History of Medicine. A Short History (London: The Wellcome Trust, 1993). 2 On the library of the Medical Society of London, see Penelope Hunting, The Medical Society of London, 1773–2003 (London: Medical Society of London, 2003), 21–6, 291–305. 3 British Library, shelfmark 195a20: British Library Database of Bookbindings (http://www.bl.uk/catalogues/bo okbindings, accessed 18 December 2014).

On John Brindley: George Smith, The Oldest London Bookshop: A History of Two Hundred Years (London: Ellis, 1928), 3–20. 5 Anthony Askew studied at Cambridge and Leiden, and was appointed physician to St Bartholomew’s Hospital in 1754. His surviving correspondence with Richard Mead and the German philologist Johann Jakob Reiske (1716–74) reflects his great love of Greek literature, including a project for a critical edition of Aeschylus’ works, which was never realised. On Askew and his library, see William Younger Fletcher, English Book Collectors (London: Kegan Paul, Trench, Trübner & Co., 1902), 219–21; and Seymour de Ricci, English Collectors of Books & Manuscripts (1530–1930) and Their Marks of Ownership (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1930), 47, 52–3. 6 Eg. British Library, Add. MSS 5108 and 5119 (http://www.bl.uk/manuscripts, accessed 18 December 2014). The latter binding is identical to that of Wellcome MS.MSL.14. 7 Bibliotheca Askeviana manu scripta, sive catalogus librorum manuscriptorum Antonii Askew (London: Leigh & Sotheby, 1785), passim. 8 [William Macmichael], The Gold-Headed Cane, 4th edn (New York: Hoever, 1915), 151–2. Richard Mead studied at Utrecht, Leiden and Padua, and was elected physician to St Thomas’ Hospital in Southwark in 1703. He wrote several works on medical topics, including an influential monograph on the practice of inoculation for smallpox. He knew Greek and Latin, and his vast collection of books and manuscripts numbered some 10 000 volumes. Greek Manuscripts at the Wellcome Library in London 277 it is impossible to ascertain how many – and which – of Askew’s numerous codices came from him. Those now owned by the Wellcome were purchased at the above-mentioned 1785 sale by the Anglo-Irish physician James Sims (1741–1820), who sold them to the Medical Society of London in 1802.9 The majority of the manuscripts, thirteen in number, contain medical texts. These range in date from treatises of the Hippocratic Corpus to post-Byzantine works, but the bulk is medieval. MSS MSL 14, 60 and MS.4103 preserve various collections of Byzantine and post-Byzantine iatrosophia, an (as yet poorly studied) type of physician’s handbook consisting of simple recipes for use in daily practice.10 MS.MSL.60, in particular, contains a variety of medical compilations with either a therapeutic or diagnostic focus, eg. uroscopy, and shows how medical texts were adapted in various versions, according to the needs of Byzantine practitioners. The author best represented in the Wellcome collection (MSS MSL 52, 112 and 124) is the late Byzantine physician John Zacharias Aktouarios (ca. 1275–ca. 1330), whose work Medical Epitome has not been fully edited in print yet. Three manuscripts (MSS MSL 62, 109 and 114) with works by Aretaeus (ca. first century AD) and Rufus of Ephesus (ca. AD 80–ca. AD 150), Aetios of Amida (ca. first half of the sixth century AD) and Paul of Aegina (late sixth century AD-d. post 642), respectively, have so far been overlooked by modern scholars. The same applies to MS.MSL.135, whose text of Theophanes Chrysobalantes’ (ca. tenth century AD) Medical Epitome was not considered by Joseph Sonderkamp in his detailed study of the textual tradition of that work.11 The same codex also contains a previously uncatalogued abridged version of Symeon Seth’s (ca. second half of the eleventh century AD) On the Capacities of Foodstuffs. The non-medical manuscripts include a seventeenth-century mathematarion (MS.MSL.1), ie., an advanced textbook used by Greek students during the period of Ottoman rule (Tourkokratia).12 MS.413 is an illustrated collection of Byzantine oracles. Lastly, MS.498 presents late antique and Byzantine astronomical texts, together with some autograph religious poems from the late fifteenth century. The Greek manuscripts of the London Medical Society have been described three times: by Charles Victor Daremberg (1817–72), by Joseph Baldwin Nias (1856–1919) and by Warren Royal Dawson (1888–1968). Those manuscripts acquired by the Wellcome Library separately between 1910 and 1936 were catalogued by its librarian Samuel Arthur Joseph Moorat (1892–1975). The majority are described below in full detail. MSS MSL 112, 124 and 126, however, have only been given summary descriptions, since they are relatively recent copies, made in England, of Greek texts found in earlier codices. I hope to assist future scholarly research by providing descriptions that are more detailed than the ones heretofore available. 9 James Sims studied at Leiden and served as a physician to the General Dispensary in Aldersgate Street and to the Surrey Dispensary. He was President of the Medical Society of London for twenty-two years (1786–1808). 10 On Byzantine iatrosophia, see Anna Maria Ieraci Bio, ‘Testi medici di uso strumentale’, Jahrbuch der Österreichischen Byzantinistik, 32 (1982), 33–43. For an overview of post-Byzantine collections of recipes, see Agamemnon Tselikas, ‘TÄ ·llhnikÄ giatrosÏfia: miÄ perifronhmËnh kathgor–a qeirogràfwn’, in Thanasis Diamantopoulos (ed.), >IatrikÄ BuzantinÄ QeirÏgrafa (Athens: DÏmoc, 1995), 57–69. 11 Joseph Sonderkamp, Untersuchungen zur Überlieferung der Schriften des Theophanes Chrysobalantes sog. Theophanes Nonnos (Bonn: Habelt, 1987). A critical edition of the text is currently being prepared by Barbara Zipser. 12 On mathemataria, see Angeliki Skarveli-Nikolopoulou, Majhmatària t¿n <Ellhnik¿n sqole–wn katÄ tòn Tourkokrat–a (Athens: S‘llogoc pr‰c Diàdosin >Wfel–mwn Bibl–wn, 1993). 278 Petros Bouras-Vallianatos Note on Contents and Bibliography The heading of each catalogue entry is organised as follows: [current and former shelfmarks of the manuscript], [its summary contents], [place of origin], [date], [writing material], [number of folia, ie. leaves], [height and width of leaves], [number of lines per page], [justification, ie. height and width of the written area], [ruling type]. All measurements are given in millimetres. Types of ruling are identified according to Jacques-Hubert Sautel (ed.), Répertoire de réglures dans les manuscrits grecs sur parchemin (Turnhout: Brepols, 1995) [Bibliologia, 13]. The ruling is always, unless otherwise specified, in drypoint. The location of quire signatures is described as follows: S(upra) – top of the page, I (nfra) – bottom of the page; i – internal page corner, m– mid-margin, e – external page corner; 1 – first page of the quire, 2 – first and last pages of the quire, 3 – last page of the quire. Titles are given in bold; inc(ipit) and des(init) refer respectively to the opening and ending phrase of a certain work or of a section of a certain work. As a large number of the medical texts do not have a critical edition, in addition to beginning and ending I give a detailed account of the table of contents (where available), because this may be useful for determining the place of a codex within the tradition of a given text. Transcriptions from Greek are diplomatic and retain the spelling and punctuation of the relevant codex. In those cases when a printed edition corresponds to a text found in one of the catalogued manuscript, the name of its editor is given in {brackets}, followed by the corresponding page and/or line numbers. (If the printed text differs somewhat from the one found in the MS, its editor’s name is preceded by the sign ⇠.) The full title of the edition can be found either in a footnote or in the bibliography at the end of the corresponding catalogue entry. If a text is included in the TLG database, I provide the relevant reference; the TLG version does not necessarily correspond to the version of the text as it stands in a certain manuscript. For each work, I provide the most common English title. Names of ancient and Byzantine authors follow OCD and ODB, respectively. I refer to texts in the Hippocratic Corpus as being by [Hippocrates].

In contrast to the usual structure of the recipes given in the full version of the Dynameron such as in Parisinus gr. 2243 (AD 1339), where indication is followed by the list of substances and the method of preparation, here there is only the title followed by the list of ingredients for each recipe. This epitome comprises three parts: the first has, in no particular order, recipes from various parts of the Dynameron, the second focuses on oils, the third is an excerpt on plasters.

(note 35). 44 The opuscule on phlebotomy, 166r–169r, includes the term ‘basilik† flËy’, found only in fifteenth-century Byzantine medical manuscripts and probably denoting an influence from Islamic medicine; see Oswei Temkin, ‘The Byzantine origin of the names for the basilic and cephalic veins’, in idem, The Double Face of Janus and Other Essays in the History of Medicine (Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 1977), 198–201. 45 The short text included between the contents of Books 2 and 3 accompanies the diagram of a urine vial and corresponds with John’s description of the urine vial in chapter 13 of Book 1. 46 The text is written in the form of ecclesiastical canon; some manuscripts attribute it to Maximos Planoudes; 294 Petros Bouras-Vallianatos [189v–191r] Ps.-Hippocrates, On Urines Vials.

Zervos, ‘>Aet–ou >Amidhno‹ lÏgoc Ínatoc’, 'Ajhnê, 23 (1911), 265–392: 272–390. 55 The book has no Greek edition and has only been printed in Latin translations: Giovanni Battista da Monte (trans.), Aetii Amideni Libri sexdecim nunc primum latinitate donati, 3 vols (Venice: Lucas Antonius Junta, 1535); Janus Cornarius (trans.), Aetii medici graeci contractae ex veteribus medicinae tetrabiblos (Lyons: Godefridus et Marcellus Beringi fratres, 1549). Books 8–13 are identical in these two; here, I provide reference to both. The order of chapters in the manuscript sometimes differs from that of the printed Latin translations. 56 The order of chapters differs considerably from that in Daremberg, op. cit. (note 33), 85–126: 568–81. 57 The order of chapters is generally the same as in Georgios A. Costomiris (ed.), >Aet–ou lÏgoc dwdËkatoc (Paris: Klincksieck, 1892); some chapters are supplemented here with further recipes, while the last two chapters printed in Costomiris are missing. 58 The book has been partly edited by Skevos G. Zervos, ‘>Aet–ou >Amidhno‹ daknÏntwn zºwn ka» obÏlwn’, >Ajhnê, 18 (1906), 241–302: 264–92. For chapters not found in Zervos’ edition, I provide references to Da Monte and Cornarius, op. cit. (note 55). Sometimes the text differs considerably from the printed edition and the Latin translations; in one case, an entire chapter is printed neither in Zervos nor in the Latin translations, viz. 169v: Per» Çsfalàkwn, inc.

However, there are also lots of variations on the text (which is usually longer) and the headings; the proem and last chapters on venomous animals are not included. 73 The text is close to Ideler’s edition, op. cit. (note 34), Vol. 2, 257–81, although shorter, and its end coincides with Ermerins’ edition, op. cit. (note 23), 225–75; the proem preceding the text is similar to the one edited by Laura Felici, ‘L’opera medica di Teofane Nonno in manoscritti inediti’, Acta medicae historiae Patavina, 28 (1981–2), 59–74: 67–8. 74 The introduction follows the edition of the relevant part printed by Felici, op. cit. (note 73), 63, based on Marcianus gr. V 16, ff. 129r–v, 140–146, and Vaticanus gr. 292, ff. 68v–96. First recipe on theriac; last recipe on the plaster called mastiqhrà. 75 The order of chapters is largely different from Langkavel’s edition, op. cit. (note 48); chapters usually appear in an abridged version, eg. the entry Per» ˚afan–doc appears twice: once (135r–136r) in a version close to Langkavel’s edition and one more (114r) in an abridged form.

Here the commentary follows the version attributed in other manuscripts to Damascius; Caroline Magdelaine, ‘Le commentaire de Damascius aux Aphorismes d’Hippocrate’, in Antonio Garzya and Jacques Jouanna (eds), Storia e ecdotica dei testi medici greci: Atti del II Convegno Internazionale, Parigi 24–26 maggio 1994 (Napoli: D’Auria, 1996), 289–306: 292–3.

The Wellcome MS contains the full text of the commentary published by Dietz, followed (18r–v) by Aphorisms 7.62–3, 65–75 without commentary. Each book has a separate heading (1r, 3v, 6r, 8v, 11r, 14r, 16r). 83 Chapter titles written in the margins of ff. 18v–21v. 84 The text in this MS is incomplete and breaks off at the same point (II.1) as in New Haven, Yale University, Cushing/Whitney Medical History Library, MS 50 (olim Saragossa, Cabildo de la Santa Iglesia Mayor del Pilar, MS 1427); John Duffy, Stephani Philosophi In Hippocratis Prognosticum commentariaIII (Berlin: AkademieVerlag, 1983), [CMG, XI/1,2], 18, concludes that the Wellcome MS is a direct copy of the Yale one. 85 Littré, op. cit.
