title: [The plague regimen of Arent Schryver].
abstract: This article is concerned with the edition of a 15th century plague treatise in Middle Dutch, by Arent Schryver, licentiate in medicine, from Dalen (Drenthe, the Netherlands), that has been discovered recently. The text has been found in manuscript number 33 of the Fürstliche Salm-Salmsche Bibliothek in Anholt (FRG). It is the most detailed plague treatise in Middle Dutch known to date. Its structure and contents are clearly based upon the Compendium de epidimia of the Medical Faculty of Paris, but on numerous occasions it diverges from its model. Therefore it deserves its own place among the numerous plague treatises.
