  1. On Ancient Medicine

    Refimprove date April 2007 italictitle On Ancient Medicine or Tradition in Medicine is a treatise in the Hippocratic Corpus , a collection of Ancient Greece ancient Greek medical texts attributed to Hippocrates and written probably in the late 5th century BC. As with all works in the Hippocratic Corpus, authorship cannot be confirmed and is regarded as dubious by some historians of medicine . As the title suggests, the treatise gives a reconstruction of the development of medicine, assuming that it was an outgrowth of the discovery by ancient people that health could be promoted by the consumption of certain foods prepared properly. Primitive peoples ate raw food and their health suffered greatly. Once they began to grind grain into flour and bake bread, and to boil strong foods, their longevity increased. Some people had more delicate constitutions and required milder foods and so the art of medicine was born. The treatise is a rhetorical attack on pre Hippocratic medicine as it was apparently practiced by many of the author s contemporaries. He the author was probably male, assuming it was written by a Hippocratic physician criticized doctors who prescribed a treatment such as hot or cold, wet or dry, categories which sound like the four humors blood, yellow bile vomit , black bile excrement , phlegm mucus . The author argues that there is no substance in the four humors theory. The inclusion of this work in the Hippocratic Corpus is surprising, given that it attacks the Humorism humor theory underpinning later Hippocratic and Galen ic medicine. The contrast is one reason for modern skepticism about its authorship. Wikisource Category Ancient Greek medical works fr De l ancienne m decine ...   more details

  1. Ancient Greek law

    Ancient Greek law is a branch of comparative jurisprudence relating to the laws and legal institutions of Ancient Greece . Greek law has been partially compared with Roman law , and has been incidentally illustrated with the aid of the primitive institutions of the Germanic tribes Germanic nations . It may now be studied in its earlier stages in the laws of Gortyn code Gortyn its influence may be traced in legal documents preserved in Ancient Egypt Egyptian Papyrus papyri and it may be recognized as a consistent whole in its ultimate relations to Roman law in the eastern provinces of the Roman empire . The existence of certain general principles of law is implied by the custom of settling a difference between two Greek states, or between members of a single state, by resorting to external arbitration. The general unity of Greek law is mainly to be seen in the laws of inheritance and adoption, in laws of Commercial law commerce and Contract law contract , and in the publicity uniformly given to legal agreements. No systematic collection of Greek laws has come down to us. Our knowledge of some of the earliest notions of the subject is derived from the Homer ic poems. For the details of Attica Attic law we have to depend on ex parte statements in the speeches of the Attic orators, and we are sometimes able to check those statements by the trustworthy, but often imperfect, aid of inscriptions. Incidental illustrations of the laws of Ancient Athens Athens may be found in the Laws dialogue Laws of Plato , who deals with the theory of the subject without exercising any influence on actual practice.
