Il «thesaurus Pauperum» Pisano: Edizione Critica, Commento Linguistico E Glossario

The Thesaurus pauperum is a medieval collection of medical recipes, written in Latin and translated all across Europe. In this volume - after an introduction to medieval medicine and to the different Italian vernacular translations of the work - we present the first critical edition of the Thesaurus pauperum in ancient Pisan vernacular. The text is followed by a linguistic analysis and by a glossary of botanical and medical terms.
