[Croatian-Glagolithic marginalia medica].
A large number of Croatian Glagolitic manuscripts was investigated with the aim to identify those which are out of the main content - as certain marginalia medica croatico-glagolitica. Such a model was a specific and valuable source for research of medical history and a possible addition to historical factography as well. The analyzed marginalia were recipes, prayers, short chronicales and signa agoniae. Some recipes reflect the transfer of folk experience as well as of official medical knowledge through centuries. The text entitled Zlamenĵa po kih se poznava da nemoĉnik ima brzo umreti (=signa agoniae) is the unique such composition preserved in Croatian Glagolitic writing. It shows the influence of various medical systems and trace of Hippocratism in Glagolitic heritage.
