Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Anthimus was a Greek doctor condemned by the Emperor in Constantinople to a life of exile at the court of Theodoric the Ostrogoth, barbarian ruler of Italy at the beginning of the 6th century AD. In the course of his life in Ravenna, he was sent as ambassador to the King of the Franks and wrote, perhaps as a sweetener to his fierce yet royal host, a letter about foods - which were good for you, which bad, and, sometimes, how to cook and serve them. It may reasonably be called the first French cookery book; and this is a new and more accurate modern language edition, printed with the Latin and English in parallel on facing pages. Mark Grant provides a general historical introduction - which corrects various errors of fact in earlier editions, a Latin text based on the editio princeps of 1864, a modern English translation, and a full commentary on the work itself, with many cross-references to classical medical treatises, the literature of classical cookery and modern scholarship insofar as it knows anything of the food and cookery of the early Merovingian Franks.This work by Anthimus has long been studied for the light it sheds on the linguistic transition from classical to medieval Latin, but rarely has it been treated for what it was: a cookery and medical treatise. It shows cooking on the cusp between the bread, vegetable and oil based cuisine of the Mediterranean and the meat dominated cookery of the northern forests. This short treatise is essential to an understanding of the development of West European medieval and early modern cooking. This version was first published by Prospect Books in 1996 and is being brought back into print due to continuing demand. Based on a letter about good and bad foods, written by Anthimus, a Greek doctor, to the King of the Franks, this book is considered to be the first French cookery book.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an historical medical text which brings together health advice given by the sixth-century court physician Anthimus to the Frankish king Theuderic. It covers a wide range of topics, from healthy eating, to the treatment of specific ailments and illnesses. It also includes some veterinary advice. The book is believed to have been edited and expanded in the ninth century in the scriptorium of the Abbey of St. Gall in what is now Switzerland and became the core of a wider collection known as the "Anthimus" or "Medicina Plinii". The author draws on the work of ancient Greek and Roman physicians such as Hippocrates and Galen and also includes some of his own observations. The book provides a fascinating insight into early medical practice and is still relevant today for its emphasis on healthy eating and lifestyle. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
