Book excerpt: Excerpt from Colloquies on the Simples and Drugs of India The lore which Achilles once valued I studied with thee, you Opened my eyes to its charm. In your garden of herbs each ower, each tree, were seen in your time by your friend. The fruits of that garden collected from far, were unknown to the learned of old. See how, in thine age thy wisdom and care brought many new simples to light. Unknown to the ancients, but revealed to our sage are the plants in thy garden of herbs. You have opened to us an inspiring page. To thy neighbours like magic it seems. Taught of yore by the muses of Ganges and Ind, full of learning, as of years, in all that is known of the true healing art, old Chiron must bow before thee.

Download or read book Medicine Trade and Empire written by Palmira Fontes da Costa and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Garcia de Orta’s Colloquies on the Simples and Drugs of India (1563) was one of the first books to take advantage of the close relationship between medicine, trade and empire in the early modern period. The book was printed in Goa, the capital of the Portuguese empire in the East, and the city where the author, a Portuguese physician of Jewish ancestry, lived for almost thirty years. It presents a vast array of medical information on various drugs, spices, plants, fruits and minerals native to India or adjoining territories. In addition, it includes information concerning indigenous methods of healing as well as a far-reaching assessment of ancient and modern authors on Asian materia medica. Orta’s book had a market in Asia but was particularly valuable to a European audience. It soon attracted the attention of various European authors and printers by providing the basis for adaptations, commentaries and editions in various languages, prompting a successful and complex trail of medical knowledge in transit. Authored by an interdisciplinary team of prominent international scholars, the volume takes into account recent historiographical trends and provides a contextualized and innovative analysis of the histories and reception of the Colloquies. It emphasizes the value of the work to historians today as a symbol of the impact of geographical expansion and globalization in a sixteenth-century medical world.

An invaluable primary source for scholars and conservators.
