摘要
摘要:本文集中在三个段落关于草药和草药治疗(§91,§92和§97)选择从匿名叙利亚药理学的书,菲利普吉格努最近编辑。它认为,这三个段落都与盖伦的《论简单药物》有相似之处,而§91的最后一部分在狄奥斯科里德的《药物论》1.107中找到了相似之处。这些相似之处不仅帮助我们破译了一些在早期研究中仍未解决的术语,而且还有助于更好地理解一些段落,这些段落偶尔会因为叙利亚文本的高度缩写而产生误导。此外,将匿名的叙利亚语药理学文本与盖伦的早期叙利亚语翻译文本进行比较表明,我们的文本是一个多层药典,它结合了六世纪Rēš的Sergius的早期元素和在Abbāsid翻译运动中Ḥunayn ibn Isḥāq的新术语。
Dioscorides and Galen in the Syriac Tradition: A Reconsideration of Three Passages About Herbs in an Anonymous Syriac Pharmacological Book
Abstract This article centres on three passages about herbs and herb remedies (§91, §92 and §97) selected from the anonymous Syriac pharmacological book which Philippe Gignoux recently edited. It argues that all three passages have parallels in Galen’s On Simple Drugs, while the last section of §91 finds a parallel in Dioscorides’ De materia medica 1.107. The parallels not only help us to decipher several terms which remain unresolved in earlier research, but also facilitate a better understanding of some passages which are occasionally misleading due to the highly abbreviated character of the Syriac text. Furthermore, a comparison between the anonymous Syriac pharmacological text and earlier Syriac translations of Galen shows that our text is a multiple-layered pharmacopoeia which combines both earlier elements from Sergius of Rēš ͑ainā in the sixth century and new terminologies from Ḥunayn ibn Isḥāq in the ʿAbbāsid translation movement.
