El recetario que aquí se edita bajo el título facticio de Liber medicine ex quadrupedibus consiste en una recopilación de remedios médicos (tanto mágicos como farmacológicos) elaborados con sustancias y órganos procedentes de animales cuadrúpedos. En su mayor parte se reelabora material procedente de una obra probablemente tardoantigua titulada Liber medicine ex animalibus, atribuida a un enigmático Sexto Plácido Papiriense; el otro tercio procede de diversas fuentes (no todas identificadas) que seguramente fueron adaptadas de manera semejante a aquella. La recopilación es anónima y data de época altomedieval. La gran coincidencia con el Liber medicine ex animalibus ha provocado que uno y otro recetarios hayan sido considerados como dos redacciones de un original perdido y que ambos hayan sido atribuidos a Sexto Plácido: la consideración del Liber medicine ex quadrupedibus como «redacción alpha» de Sexto Plácido ha tenido como consecuencia algunos errores metodológicos en la edición del texto, que aquí se pretenden subsanar. Por lo demás, la obra es de gran interés para el conocimiento de la medicina bajomedieval (concretamente de la medicina zooterápica, un género poco representado) y para el estudio de la historia de la lengua latina y de las formas de transmisión de los textos llamados «vivos». [Abstract translated by Google Translate: This is the abstract in English… The recipe book published here under the factitious title of Liber medicine ex quadrupedibus consists of a compilation of medical remedies (both magical and pharmacological) made with substances and organs from quadruped animals. For the most part, material is reworked from a probably late-ancient work entitled Liber medicine ex animalibus, attributed to an enigmatic Placitus Sextus; the other third comes from various sources (not all identified) that were surely adapted in a similar way to that one. The compilation is anonymous and dates from the early medieval period. The great coincidence with the Liber medicine ex animalibus has caused that one and the other recipe books have been considered as two redactions of a lost original and that both have been attributed to Sextus Placitus: the consideration of Liber medicine ex quadrupedibus as an «alpha redaction» of Sextus Placitus has resulted in some methodological errors in the editing of the text, which are intended to be corrected here. For the rest, the work is of great interest for the knowledge of late medieval medicine (specifically zootherapeutic medicine, a genre little represented) and for the study of the history of the Latin language and the forms of transmission of the texts called "Alive."]
