Sumario:Constantinus Africanus (c. 1015-1087), likely born in modern Tunis or Sicily, was responsible for the translation of Arabic medical texts into Latin, which constituted a substantial contribution to contemporary knowledge in fields such as anatomy and surgery, among others.

This book is a semi-diplomatic edition of the late Middle.
