Descrizione

The main issues of a recent book on Galen are discussed. It deals with biographical and historical themes relating to the famous physician: his relationship with slaves; the significance and value of his travels; his relations with emperors and the imperial court; his network of friendships; the importance he attached to dreams; his focus on nutrition and diet; the value of the experiments and medicines he practised and administered; his philological and literary activity and his philosophical stance.
