De materia medica (Dioscorides)

liber

De materia medica, Graece scriptum et in multas linguas versum, est opus principale Pedanii Dioscuridis Anazarbei qui in provinciis Asiaticis Imperii Romani saeculo I p.C.n. floruit. Laecanio Basso dicatum est.[1]

Dioscorides Neapolitanus: pagina descriptiones, glossas, imagines de origano monstrans
Versio Latina ab Ioanne Ruellio anno 1516 edita

Exstant plures recensiones Graecae:

Versio Andreae Lacunae Hispanica Antverpiae 1555 edita. Exemplar manu tinctum (Bibliotheca Nationalis Hispanica)

Versiones Latinae tres aevis antiquo et medio factae sunt.[5] Versionis antiquissimae (A), saeculo III a Gargilio Martiali factae, fragmenta tantum supersunt. Versionis secundae (B) excerpta pauca apud pseudo-Apuleium et Isidori Etymologias reperiuntur. Versio mediaevalis (C, etiam "Dioscorides Langobardus" ab eruditis appellata), ab exemplari recensionis genuinae saeculo fere VI conversa, e libro manuscripto saeculi IX nobis cognoscitur. Haec versio saeculo fere XI in ordinem alphabeticum retractata est; quae recensio sub nomine "Dyascorides" recognoscitur.[6]

Saeculo XVI opus De materia medica in linguas varias verterunt commentariisque adornaverunt Latine Ioannes Ruellius, Valerius Cordus, Italiane Petrus Andreas Matthiolus, alii nonnulli.

Quod autem difficile erit credendum, textu multo ab Oribasio omisso in libris recensionis alphabeticae recitato.
