Galen's Treatise Περὶ Ἀλυπίας (de Indolentia) in Context : A Tale of Resilience
by Caroline Petit
English | 2019 | ISBN: 900438328X | 302 Pages | True PDF | 1.96 MB

This volume offers a multi-disciplinary approach to the "new" Galen text De indolentia, discovered in 2005. It addresses Galen's literary production, his medical and philosophical contribution, the Antonine plague, the reign of Commodus, and finally the reception of the text.

"In sum, this volume, with its excellent typography, highlights the extent  to which Ind. changes our perception of Galen and his works: it both bridges gaps in previous research and raises new questions that make it abundantly clear there is much more work to be done." - Mónica Durán Mañas, in: Bryn Mawr Classical Review, 2020.04.11.
