§07§The series Medical Traditions is devoted to the transmission of the medical knowledge gained through a centuries-long practice and attested by an abundant textual corpus in handwritten form. It publishes original monographs and collections of essays resulting from innovative, cross-disciplinary research providing both primary data for further developments and new insights on any facet of the complex process of conveying medical knowledge. §16§Greek medical manuscripts have been catalogued differently over the centuries. Based on the inventory of their texts in Diels' lists, this tome offers the first standardized catalogue. When appropriate, manuscript location or shelfmark according to Diels have been corrected and updated to reflect the current state of collections worldwide. This tome is the first step toward a full catalogue that will renew understanding of the Greek medical tradition and ultimately lead to the much-awaited New Diels. §02§A.
