Abstract

This PhD Dissertation focuses on the hitherto unknown �English history� of one of the most relevant and influential books of medical simples that circulated in the Middle Ages: De simplici medicina �also known as Circa instans. Apart from offering an overview of its sources and antecedents, this research provides us with a comprehensive study of its Middle English extant manuscripts and it presents, for the first time, an edition of one of the Middle English manuscripts containing a version of the celebrated Salernitan work (CUL Ee.1.13, 1r-91v).
