ISBN: 9004108238 John Murdoch was a historian of ancient Greek and medieval Latin science and philosophy. In alternate years he gave a lecture course on one or the other of these periods in pre-modern science. Each year he directed a seminar on both of these ancient and medieval fields, the topics of which vary, in addition to an advanced seminar on medieval philosophy and science, and a seminar on the establishment of medieval Latin scientific texts. / Professor Murdoch was the author of Album of Science: Antiquity and the Middle Ages (Charles Scribner's Sons, 1984). His publications in medieval science, mathematics, and philosophy include an article in The Cultural Context of Medieval Learning (D. Reidel, 1973), edited with Edith Sylla, and numerous articles on the transmission of Euclid's Elements. His particular interest was in the concepts of infinity, continuity, and limits throughout early science. [Harvard Dept. of the History of Science].…

Leiden, Brill, 2019. 243 pp. As new. Hardcover. The authors publish a previously unedited Regimen of Health attributed to Avenzoar (Ibn Zuhr), translated at Montpellier in 1299 in a collaboration between a Jewish philosopher and a Christian surgeon, the former translating the original Arabic into their shared Occitan vernacular, the latter translating that into Latin. They use manuscript evidence to argue that the text was produced in two stages, first a quite literal version, then a revision improved in style and in language adapted to contemporary European medicine. Such collaborative translations are well known, but the revelation of the inner workings of the translation process in this case is exceptional. A separate Hebrew translation by the philosopher (also edited here) gives independent evidence of the lost Arabic original.…

Leiden, Brill, 2022. XII,789 pp. As new. Hardback. Heavy item. For shipment outside Europe, extra postage might be required. The medical compendium entitled Zad al-musafir wa-qut al-air (Provisions for the Traveller and Nourishment for the Sedentary) and compiled by Ibn al-Jazzar from Qayrawan in the tenth century is one of the most influential handbooks in the history of western medicine. In the eleventh century, Constantine the African translated it into Latin; this translation was the basis for several commentaries compiled from the twelfth century on.

The present volume includes a new critical edition of the Arabic text of books I and II, along with an annotated English translation, as well as critical editions of Constantine's Viaticum and the Hebrew versions by Ibn Tibbon, Abraham ben Isaac, and Do'eg ha-Edomi.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - These studies respond to the challenge posed twenty years ago by John E. Murdoch, in whose honor they have been assembled: to interpret ancient and medieval mathematical and scientific texts not just as isolated intellectual productions but as responses to particular settings or contexts.Two broad settings are explored here: that of the wider intellectual culture, where relations among mathematics, astronomy, natural philosophy - and also theology, logic and astrology - are shown to have shaped individual texts; and the context of lay society, where institutional structures, patronage, even personal relationships impinged upon scientific writing.The volume reinforces the growing recognition that ancient and medieval scientific texts 'made a difference' to their authors and audiences and must be understood in relation to topics like disciplinary identity, career advancement, lay interest, and practical applicability.Publications by John E.
