[Fragments of medico-historical interest in the Landeskirchliche Archiv Kassel].
A systematic survey in the Landeskirchliche Archiv Kassel of medieval manuscript fragments which have survived in the binding of documents in parish archives has uncovered a treasure of liturgical, theological and legal texts. This paper presents two fragments of medico-historical interest: two folios from a pharmaceutical treatise, which could not be identified more precisely, and a passage from the commentary to Gilles de Corbeil's well-known 'Carmen de urinis'. A modern edition of this commentary, which was probably written by Gilles himself, would be very welcome.
