Author Description

Excerpt from Revue Celtique, Vol. 49: Année 1932 Avicenna do not occur in full, and I have left the Latin form, except in the case of Ipocras which is commonly used in Irish for Hippocrates The quotations attributed to Au. As far as I have been able to identify them, are closer to the work of Avicenna than to that ofaverrhoes. The name Aueroes however, does occur on p. 1 of the H. 2. 8 text. The titles of the works referred to are fairly inaccurately rend ered. The frequent Latin quotations help to establish the meaning of some of the terms used, and it is interesting to see some words in process of Gaelicisation.
