Antidotarium Magnum

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Antidotarium Magnum , Liber iste , Antidotarium Nicolai and Grabadin are the names of recipe books from the 11th to 13th centuries. They influenced the pharmaceutical theory and practice in Europe until the 19th century and can be considered the first " positive lists for drugs later" and progenitor pharmacopoeia and modern pharmacopoeia are called.

Antidotarium Magnum (Antidotarius Magnus)

Antidotarium Magnum or (Liber) Antidotarius Magnus is the name of a collection of medical prescriptions. This recipe collection was compiled in southern Italy around 1060 and contains up to 1300 medical prescriptions in alphabetical order. Typical for pre-Salernitan antidotaries was (in contrast to the short recipes of the so-called prescriptions) the full recipe. The collection of rules, which "disappeared" from the 16th century until it was rediscovered by Alfons Lutz, was written by several authors, including Johannes Afflacius, and is based on sources from late antiquity, early Byzantine and (e.g. via Constantinus Africanus ) Arabic and early medieval sources (including antidotaria as they were used in monastery medicine ). Possible sources of the Antidotarium Magnum are:

Liber iste (= Pseudo-Platearius glosses)

Between 1100 and 1200 a pharmacological commentary on the 70 most common recipes of the early Salernitan antidotarium Magnum was written in the school of Salerno and has been handwritten since 1170 at the latest. This commentary arrangement (with the title Glossulae , also called "Glossae Platearii") was named "Liber iste" after his first words and, contrary to earlier assumptions, was probably not written by a "Platearius". The oldest translation of the drug-related text, which has the characteristics of a pharmacopoeia as well as a herbal book , and which , in contrast to the compound drugs (Composita) of Antidotarium Magnum and Antidotarium Nicolai, mainly treats single substance drugs (Simplicia), was made in the German language in the 13th century.

Antidotarium Nicolai

In the second quarter of the 12th century (around 1140) at the latest, a doctor from Salerno ( Nicolaus Salernitanus , also known as Nicolaus von Salerno, a teacher at the school in Salerno ) selected the 136 most common recipes of the seldom handed down and because of its oversize and unsolved manufacturing problems The Magnum antidotarium, which did not prevail in practice , was supplemented by six further prescriptions from doctors from the Salerno school and added a foreword and part of the commentary text of the “Liber iste”. This compilation, which was also practical in terms of the shelf life of the selected drugs and their weight information, and introduced the standardization of drug preparation, was, even if the text criticized the pharmacy class at the time, in Europe as the "Antidotarium Nicolai" for the leading pharmaceutical, especially in Central High German and Central Netherlands from around 1300 Reference text, parts of which survived into the national official pharmacopoeias or pharmacopoeias of the 19th century. Nicolaus Salernitanus introduced the Gran unit to pharmaceuticals with the Nicolai antidotarium .

Grabadin of the Pseudo-Mesue (= Pseudo-Mesue-Filius)

In the 13th century , a "Grabadin" (Arabic qarābāḍīn , based on the then famous Johannes Mesue senior , based on the author's pseudonym "Mesue-Filius") appeared in northern Italy, probably written around 1250 in Lombardy or the German guilder zone from the Greek gráphiton ) called, compound drug containing recipe book, which soon asserted itself alongside the "Antidotarium Nicolai". The author created this pharmacopoeia, which became a standard pharmaceutical work at the beginning of the 16th century, from writings by Avicenna, Rhazes and Albucasis.
