Armengaud Blaise or Blaise (d. 1312), a nephew of the celebrated medieval medical and theological figure Arnau de Vilanova (d.1311), is becoming better known, thanks in large part to the documentation preserved in the Archivo de la Corona de Aragon. Armengaud became a practicing physician and went to Barcelona at the end of 1303 to serve the king and queen. He later became physician to Pope Clement V at Avignon. He helped turn Latin into at least five works from the earlier tradition of Greco-Arabic scientific learning and also wrote at least two original medical compositions. The second of these, called the Tabula Antidotarii, is a summary list of a number of common compound medicines together with their properties, arranged in tabular form. This book provides a study of Armengaud and the Latin Tabula Antidotarii, Estori ha-Parhi, and the Hebrew translation of the Tabula with the Latin and Hebrew texts. It also includes the English, Latin, and Hebrew texts of the Tabula, facsimile pages, and the translator's introduction.
