The Medieval Surgery: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "The Medieval Surgery" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Tony Hunt presents, for the first time, the complete set of illustrations which accompany a 13th-century Anglo-Norman translation of Roger of Parmas Surgery (c.1180), the first original treatise on surgery to be written in the medieval West. His commentary relates the drawings precisely to the sections of text they illustrate, providing accurate identification of the different medical treatments depicted, fusing careful translation from the Latin text with modern medical perception. These distinctive drawings, almost without parallel in 13th-century England, show a consummate medical illustrator at work and reveal a great deal of information on the medieval pharmacy and the range of therapeutic treatments practised.
