EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Persimmons: A Preservative Against Drunkenness" - A Glimpse into the Medieval Handbook of Health and Wellness, Codex Granatensis, 1400 The vibrant and intricately detailed illustration on folio 84v of Codex C-67 from Granada's University Library, showcases the ancient knowledge of health and wellness as depicted in the medieval handbook, Tacuinum Sanitatis. This particular image highlights the health benefits of persimmons, as described in the 11th-century treatise Taqwin al-sihha (Tables of Health) by the Nestorian Christian physician and philosopher, Abu-l Hasan al-Mujtar ibn Butlan (c. 1001-1066) of Baghdad. The illustration, a captivating example of Gothic art, displays a scene of a table laden with various fruits, including persimmons. The central focus is on a group of merrymakers, who, despite indulging in wine, remain sober due to the consumption of persimmons. This is a testament to the belief that persimmons could help prevent drunkenness. Ibn Butlan's Taqwin al-sihha was a widely-circulated and influential text in the medieval world, particularly in Europe, where it was translated into Latin and disseminated through various manuscripts. The Codex Granatensis, created in 1400 in Andalusia, Spain, is a significant example of this rich cultural exchange. The illustration's vivid colors and meticulous details not only demonstrate the artistic achievements of the period but also serve as a testament to the enduring interest in health and wellness throughout history. This image, with its intriguing fusion of medical knowledge, cultural exchange, and artistic expression, offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of medieval health practices and the enduring allure of the natural world.
