Présentation de l'éditeur :
Bizans'ta şifa sanatı ve uygulamalarını, Roma döneminden geç Bizans dönemine uzanan bir süreçte ele alan sergi, adını Hippokrates'in ünlü "hayat kısa, sanat uzun" aforizmasından alıyor. Antik dünyanın kutsal şifacıları Apollon ve Asklepios ile rasyonel tıbbın ve farmakolojinin kurucuları Hippokrates ve Dioskorides'in altyapısını oluşturduğu, Bizanslıların şifa yöntemleri olan inanç, büyü ve tıbbı anlatıyor.
Hastalığın, birincil nedeninin şeytanlar olduğuna dair inanç ile Hippokratik öğretilere dayandırılan akılcı bir algılanış, "şifa sanatı"nın öncülerinde -hekimler, eczacılar, azizler ve büyücüler - çarpıcı bir biçimde birlikte var olur. Bu anlamda, sağlıklı olmak ve hastalıklardan, şeytanlardan korunmak, bedeni ve ruhu arındırmak için yapılan ritüeller, Bizanslıların günlük yaşamına da ışık tutuyor.
Sergi kataloğu Bizans'ın kadim kültürel mirasını, dinsel ve akılcı düşüncenin yanı sıra, Akdeniz çevresindeki çağdaş bilimsel gelişmeler ve yenilikler üzerindeki etkisini de gözler önüne seriyor. Alanının önde gelen uzmanları tarafından kaleme alınmış makaleler ve kimi ilk kez yayımlanan eserlerin yer aldığı katalog Bizans tarihi ve sanatı üzerine yayımlanmış en güncel ve kapsamlı yayınlar arasında yer alıyor.
The famous aphorism of Hippocrates-"life is short, art long"- stands at the heart of this exhibition, which examines the art and practice of healing in Byzantium from Roman times to the late Byzantine period. It traces the concurrent methods of healing-faith, magic, and rational medicine-from the foundations laid by Apollo and Asklepios, healers of antiquity, as well as Hippocrates and Dioscorides, the founders of rational medicine. The fascinating coexistence of a belief in demons as the primary cause of illness and a rational perception of disease, grounded in Hippocratic teachings, come together in the protagonists of the "art of healing"-the physicians, druggists, saints, holy men, and magicians who healed the sick. The daily rituals involved in maintaining and pursuing well-being, protecting against demons, purifying the body and soul offer a glimpse into the daily life of the Byzantines.
The exhibition catalogue illustrates the influence of Byzantium's ancient cultural heritage on religious and rational thought as well as contemporary scientific developments and innovations from around the Mediterranean. The catalogue is one of the most updated and extensive publication on the history and art of healing in Byzantium with essays written by the acclaimed academics and with various works, some of them being published for the first time.

ISBN: 9786054642427 CATALOG: Byzance KEYWORDS: Byzantium Istanbul - Constantinople Archaeology health History of medicine Pharmacy This exhibition takes its name from the famous aphorism by Hippocrates and examines the art and practice of healing in Byzantium from Roman times to the late Byzantine period. Curated by Dr. Brigitte Pitarakis, Life Is Short, Art Long examines faith, magic, and rational medicine as methods of healing. It traces the ?art of healing? from the foundations laid by Apollo and Asklepios, healers of antiquity, and Hippocrates and Dioscorides, the founders of rational medicine and also examines the roles of the physician saints. Among the other topics covered and objects on display are icons, reliquaries, and amulets, marble carvings, medical equipment, plants and herbs, medical and botanical manuscripts, and the centers of healing and miracle in Istanbul. The exhibition reveals that the belief that illnesses were primarily caused by demons co-existed alongside a rational understanding of health and medicine based on the teachings of Hippocrates. The ?art of healing? was practiced by physicians, saints, and magicians and involved practices ranging from surgery to daily cleansing of the body and the spirit to exorcism and the veneration of saints. The works offering insight into Istanbul?s Byzantine past have been loaned from the Istanbul Archaeological Museums, the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Constantinople, the library of the Holy Trinity Monastery of Halki (Heybeliada), the Foundation of the Yenikoy Greek Orthodox Church of Panayia and School, the Rezan Has Museum, the Bibliotheque nationale de France, the Bodleian Libraries of the University of Oxford, Oxford University Herbaria, the Benaki Museum in Athens, the Kastoria Byzantine Museum, and private collections.
