Again on fragment 4 D.-K. Alcmaeon and Galen compared

Going over the main bibliography on the text (which has not failed to arouse interest even in recent times), a comparison is made between the famous fragment 4 D.-K. by Alcmaeon, containing the oldest definition of health and disease in terms of ἰσονομία and μοναρχία τῶν δυνάμεων, and a passage from De sanitate tuenda by Galen, also relating to the definition of those concepts.

Abstract

Going over the main bibliography on the text (which has not failed to arouse interest even in recent times), a comparison is made between the famous fragment 4 D.-K. by Alcmaeon, containing the oldest definition of health and disease in terms of ἰσονομία and μοναρχία τῶν δυνάμεων, and a passage from De sanitate tuenda by Galen, also relating to the definition of those concepts.
