INDEX OF THIS ADDITIONAL CLASS. | | | TRANSLATOR. |
| 1. | Galeni | in Aphorismos Hippoc: Comment; Septem. | N. Leonicenus. |
| 2. | | adversus Lycum, in Aphor.: Hippoc. | J. Alexandrino. |
| 3. | | contra ea quæ a Juliano in Hipp.: Aphor.: dicta sunt. | Idem. |
| 4. | | explanatio linguarum obsoletarum Hippocratis. | J. Cornario. |
The aphorisms of Hippocrates are in the hands of most physicians. They have been much read, and much commented on. They are in fact, almost the only part of his writings that are familiar to the Profession; and with much to be admired, and admitted as truth, contain not a little error. The commentaries of Galen are, in many parts interesting, and much practical use may be acquired from their perusal. An abstract of them is impossible. The aphorisms are singly taken, as texts, on which Galen very learnedly expatiates. All the three first numbers of this class, are of the same character. The latter (No. iv.), though united with these aphoristic books, is merely an explanation of obsolete words in the Hippocratic writings, and of consequence forms a kind of lexicon in alphabetical order. The second number is a contradiction of the opinion of Lycus, in respect to a certain aphorism (fourteenth) of Hippocrates; and the third in like manner opposes some of the assertions of Julianus relating to the aphorisms.
We leave this class, and proceed to mention, what are in the Venice edition denominated “Spurii Libri,” and in that of Basil, “Libri Galeno ascripti.”
