Abstracts

EN

The article deals with six copies of a medical compendium recently identified in manuscripts kept in Czech libraries. This compendium, called Avicennae Canon abbreviatus in foreign catalogues, has a distinctive prologue. According to the prologue, it was originally a university lecture, but it has not been clear at which university it was given. Two recently identified texts state that the university in question was the University of Vienna. The reworked lecture circulated in two redactions.
