Abstract

This paper aims at a necessary systematic research about the expression of some medical notions, and it also revolves around other more common notions in early Latin translation of hippocratic Aphorims and in early Medieval Latin Commentary, in which that translation paves the way to the Latin Commentary. As the Commentary is still unpublished, the author concentrates on the text of the 5th Section, which was established upon the eolation of several manuscripts. This paper, then, offers some features of this Commentary, i. e. its connection to the Alexandrine tradition, its academic character, etc. We study the Hellenisms of the text and we present contrastive tables that show that the hippocratic translation and the Commentary author have different lexical registers.
