This 'spiritual medicine', which accompanies the development of secular medicine step by step, is therefore essential to understanding the relationship between health, illness, and medicine in the Christian Middle Ages.

Dare consilia is one of the activities of a learned, University trained physician. Except the tradition of the Consilia (written and formulated for patients who are not present), used by Italian practitioners, there is another important medical act, namely the consultation, whereby several physicians are brought in to discuss the state of a sick person and to advise on how to deal with the case. This consultation is one of the aspects of a physician's work that is regulated by neither corporative norms nor ecclesiastical decree ; in other words it forms a part of ethical rules or “etiquette” which every professional should possess. This paper analyses the directives given by Henri de Mondeville in his Chirurgia, established for such a meeting of physicians and defined as a collatio. His instructions are compared with the rules he gives for the behaviour of the doctor-surgeon in other situations, as well as other texts dealing with the deontology or various consultative reports by professionals. It is evident that these directives or “counsels” of Henri de Mondeville not only aim for a more efficent professional practice, but can also be seen as the expression of professional ethics, specific to the scientific community of doctors of the late Middle Ages.

Il libro presenta la prima traduzione italiana della Moralis philosophia,
che costituisce l’ultima parte dell’Opus maius, la vasta e
originale proposta di riforma del sapere del francescano inglese
Ruggero Bacone indirizzata a papa Clemente IV nel 1267.
Bacone colloca la morale al vertice della gerarchia delle scienze,
a conferma del primato della praxis e in controtendenza rispetto
all’etica tradizionale d’impianto teologico ed esegetico e ai commenti
scolastici all’Etica Nicomachea. Inoltre riprende in questo
ambito la critica alla cultura cristiana del suo tempo e afferma
che la morale, orientata alla salvezza umana, può svolgere il ruolo,
che le spetta, di regina delle scienze soltanto apprendendo la
lezione degli antichi, fra cui primeggia Seneca. Frutto di una
ricerca seminariale pluriennale, questa traduzione, accompagnata
da note di commento, lascia trasparire l’affinità di metodo e le
competenze diverse del gruppo che l’ha curata con l’obiettivo
di affrontare in maniera approfondita la filosofia morale baconiana,
esplorandone le molteplici tematiche e le fonti teologiche,
metafisiche, astrologiche, storiche, retoriche e giuridiche.
