EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable scene from the 15th century, titled "Discussions between twelve doctors". Taken from the Codex de Capodilista, an exquisite vellum manuscript by Italian School, this image provides a glimpse into the intellectual world of medieval medicine. In this artwork, we witness a group of learned individuals engaged in animated conversation. These esteemed doctors are deeply engrossed in exchanging ideas and insights on various medical topics. Their intense discussions symbolize their unwavering commitment to advancing medical science and improving healthcare practices during that era. The presence of numerous books and textbooks scattered around them signifies their dedication to studying and expanding their knowledge base. This visual representation highlights how these physicians relied on written texts as valuable resources for enhancing their understanding of medical theories and techniques. Asclepius, the Greek god associated with healing and medicine, stands prominently in the background. His presence serves as a reminder of the importance placed on physical health during this time period. The inclusion of Asclepius also suggests that these discussions were taking place within an asklepieion or healing sanctuary where ancient Greeks sought medical services. Overall, this intriguing photograph captures not only a historical moment but also encapsulates the timeless essence of intellectual exchange among professionals dedicated to promoting human well-being through advancements in healthcare and medicine.
