Gerard of Cremona: New perspectives

Marina Díaz ha sido invitada al congreso internacional Gerard of Cremona: new perspectives presentando la ponencia titulada “Gerard of Cremona: A Good Translator? Some Problems of Interpretation and Transcription in His Latin Translations of Greek Medical Texts Through Arabic” (Universität Würzburg, 25-26/09/2024).

La razón de este congreso, según los organizadores, es la siguiente: «The reason for organising a conference on Gerard of Cremona is that a number of discoveries have been made about his scholarly activities in recent years. Gerard of Cremona (d. 1187) has long been known as the most prolific translator from Arabic into Latin in the Middle Ages. He translated over 70 scientific and philosophical texts, in the fields of logic, geometry, astronomy, natural philosophy, medicine, alchemy and divination, among which his greatest achievements are perhaps the translations of Ptolemy’s Almagest and Avicenna’s Canon».
