Est-il possible et légitime pour un médecin médiéval de prévoir la longévité d’un patient? (2018)

unapi

This paper presents a thorough analysis of five commentaries on the passages of Avicenna’s Canon dealing with the length of life and the necessity of death. Four authors of these commentaries were Italian: Antonio da Parma, Gentile da Foligno, Giacomo da Forlì and Ugo Benzi. The fifth one was a Parisian master, Jacques Despars. Through their discussions, they had to face such problematic concepts as "humidum radicale" or "mors naturalis." Apart from natural philosophy and medicine, some of them resort to astrology. But Jacques Despars is the only one to tackle the question of divine providence in this context, which Avicenna himself had raised.
