To date, numerous studies have provided an overview of the history of Croatian medical literature, primarily focusing on lexicographical works, encyclopedias, and publications.\u0000Nevertheless, Croatian medical textbooks and manuals from the 19th century have been less systematically examined as a distinct corpus. This period is particularly significant in the history of Croatian scientific and cultural production: it was marked by intensified efforts to standardize the Croatian language, the development of scientific terminology, and Enlightenment-inspired initiatives aimed at making scientific knowledge accessible to the Croatian public in their native language. Works produced during this period bear witness to the development of medicine in the Croatian context and represent a valuable source for studying the history of Croatian scientific and professional terminology, as well as scientific style.\u0000The aim of this study is to provide an overview of selected Croatian medical textbooks and manuals from the 19th century, listing them and briefly describing their structure, content, and intended use. By doing so, the study seeks to supplement existing overviews of older Croatian medical literature and to highlight the significance of these works for interdisciplinary research, encompassing medical history, linguistic studies, and the broader cultural context of 19th-century Croatia.","PeriodicalId":42656,"journal":{"name":"Acta Medico-Historica Adriatica","volume":"23 2","pages":"287-297"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2026-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147784556","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The plague, which lasted from 430-426 B.C., had a death toll estimated at around 75,000 - 100,000. The importance of the plague was immense. Pericles, the historical leader of Athens, was among its victims, and his death was just the beginning of the fall of the Golden Age of Athens. The enormous death toll from the plague weakened Athens, leading to its eventual defeat in the war against Sparta. So far, the cause of this plague is unknown, but its symptoms are well described. Thucydides himself suffered from the plague, but fortunately, he survived. Many assumptions have been made about the disease responsible. In this article, the possible explanations will be discussed, hoping to shed light on that historical mystery. A metric system was created to help estimate the possibility of each of the 17 proposed diseases being the actual reason behind the deadly plague. Out of all the presented diseases, typhoid fever seems to fit most of the criteria, thus being considered the most possible causative agent. Other scenarios are also discussed.","PeriodicalId":42656,"journal":{"name":"Acta Medico-Historica Adriatica","volume":"23 2","pages":"241-260"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2026-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147784612","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over 200 years ago, the pioneer of vaccination in Dubrovnik, Luko Stulli, one of the most renowned physicians of the early 19th century, proudly and enthusiastically wrote about it. Immediately after the discovery of vaccination and inspired by this new medical method, he wrote a Latin poem in 1804 titled “Vaccinatio, carmen elegiacum” (Vaccination, an elegiac poem). This is probably one of the few poems in Croatian literature dedicated to a medical theme, and one of the last written in Latin. So far, three original printed copies have been found, and recently a fourth, printed in 1828, was discovered. Recent events related to the COVID-19 pandemic have once again sparked interest in Stulli’s Elegy, brought it into focus in discussions of vaccination and quarantine, and reaffirmed the value and universality of the views and messages expressed in this Latin poem, written in the spirit of classical poetics and the canon. Exactly 220 years have passed since the printing of the Elegy, yet doubts about the value and usefulness of scientific discoveries have not disappeared, nor has the distrust in medical science and vaccination as a civilizational achievement.","PeriodicalId":42656,"journal":{"name":"Acta Medico-Historica Adriatica","volume":"23 2","pages":"273-286"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2026-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147784588","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article examines dietary advice for individuals identified as choleric, characterized by an excess of yellow bile associated with heat and dryness, within sixteenth- and seventeenth-century medical thought. Building on previous studies of humoral balance and the melancholic constitution, the article explores how physicians and health writers adapted classical and medieval dietetic principles to manage the heat and dryness characteristic of choler. Drawing on English popular health manuals and herbals, the article outlines explicit dietary prescriptions formulated within a Galenic framework to temper physiological and emotional excess. The study also considers how these medical recommendations intersect with contemporary culinary practice through an analysis of printed English cookbooks. While medical texts articulated overtly therapeutic dietary regimes, culinary sources rarely framed recipes in medical terms. Nevertheless, many recipes produced forms of balance that aligned with humoral expectations. The article argues that this convergence reflects a shared cultural logic of moderation, shaped by the long transmission of Hippocratic and Galenic dietetic ideas, rather than deliberate medical intent in cooking.","PeriodicalId":42656,"journal":{"name":"Acta Medico-Historica Adriatica","volume":"23 2","pages":"223-239"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2026-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147784468","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
