About the Book

English summary: This work presents a collection of Greek and Latin inscriptions, papyri and text passages which mention Christian physicians. Christian Schulze points out those historical factors in the Graeco-oriental transfer of medical knowledge which should be given special consideration. Christianity and medicine were closely intertwined in Roman and Greek society. They had enjoyed a peaceful coexistence and had also worked together successfully for centuries in the Roman Empire. In this volume, the author has collected the epigraphical and papyrological traces of many Christian physicians up to the early Middle Ages. He reviews the numerous allusions to Christian medicine in patristic and medical literature. In doing so, he focuses on the members of the medical personnel as well as on the widespread use of medical metaphors in Christian thinking. German description: Christian Schulze zeigt, welche historisch lange zuruckreichenden Faktoren beim graeco-orientalischen Wissenstransfer besonders im Bereich der Medizin zu berucksichtigen sind: Christentum und Medizin waren bei Romern und Griechen eng miteinander verwoben; sie hatten seit Jahrhunderten im Romischen Reich nicht nur friedlich koexistiert, sondern auch fruchtbar zusammengewirkt. Fur den vorliegenden Band wurden die epigraphischen und papyrologischen Spuren vieler Christenarzte bis ins fruhe Mittelalter zusammengetragen. Zudem bespricht der Autor die zahlreichen Reflexe christlicher Medizin in patristischer und medizinischer Literatur. Die Frage nach der Zusammensetzung des Heilpersonals spielt dabei ebenso eine Rolle wie etwa ein Blick auf die verbreitete Medizinmetaphorik im christlichen Denken. Christian Schulze kommt zu dem Schluss, dass ohne dieses ubiquitare Zusammengehen von christlicher Theologie und ursprunglich heidnischer Medizin der auf die Antike folgende Wissenstransfer an die ostliche Welt - Syrien und Arabien - nicht in den Bahnen, mit der Geschwindigkeit und nicht mit jener, Selbstverstandlichkeit' hatte vonstatten gehen konnen, die den modernen Betrachter noch heute faszinieren.
