Nikolaus Frauen praise

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nikolaus Frauenlob von Hirschberg is the author's name for a medical text collection from the 15th century.

Manuscripts

The text collection was discovered first

  • in a Munich manuscript: Cgm 7250 , Bavarian, 15th century, sheet 1r-103v
  • and in a Heidelberg manuscript: Cpg 583 , Mattighofen, 1482–1486, sheet 2r-74v

These each contain two parts:

1. A treatise on herbs and spices and
2. a treatise on physiology and diagnostics as well as diseases, arranged from head to toe.

In addition to these two parts, two other sections are listed in the foreword to the manuscripts, but these are missing in the text:

3. A treatise on the healing powers of stones and
4. Miscellaneous.

The missing parts are contained in a Salzburg manuscript ( Cod. B VIII 1 ) and in a Berlin manuscript ( Cod. Mgf 944 ). This means that two complete manuscripts in the text collection are known and accessible. A third complete manuscript, dated 1489, is said to be in private hands.

Partial or scattered deliveries of the text collection are preserved in the already mentioned manuscripts Munich Cgm 7250 and Heidelberg Cpg 583, as well as in:

  • Cpg 666 , Kurpfalz, 1478–1480, sheet 87r-127r: contains a litter tradition of Part I (herbs). The herbal chapters are supplemented by excerpts from Gabriel von Lebenstein's distilling book
  • Cgm 3896 , Bavarian-Austrian, mid-15th century, sheet 5ra-102rb: contains part I-II
  • Cod. 2898 , written in the Salzburg area, 1470, sheet 22vb-28va, 35va-37rb: contains excerpts from Part I: Betonica, Allermonat plüe, Lylien, Centawr, Alant, Enczian, Hyrsenzungen, Grias, Plantago, Rawten
  • Cod. 2964 , Bavarian-Austrian last third of the 15th century, sheets 13r-53r: contains the herb book without a spice chapter.
  • Hs. MI 129 , Bavarian-Austrian, 2nd half of the 15th century, sheet 1r-31v: contains an extract from the herbal book. Sheet 31v-37r: contains a collection of recipes

Part I - Herbs and Spices

A herb or a spice was dealt with in 69 chapters. No system can be identified in the order in which they are listed, except that the spices are grouped together in a block at the end. In each chapter, indications were listed “from head to toe”. For the compilation, the author drew on the late antique Pseudo-Apuleius and the medieval German Macer . Most of the indicated indications can already be found in the "Materia medica" of Dioscurides and in the " Naturalis historia " of Pliny .

Under the name "Allermaneyd plue", the medical use of the daisy was discussed in detail for the first time .
