The Middle English Antidotary of Lanfranc of Milan’s “Chirurgia Magna”

Lanfranc of Milan (ca. 1250–1310) is regarded as one of the most influential surgeons of the late Middle Ages. His Latin works, Chirurgia parva and Chirurgia magna , shaped surgical practices until the emergence of modern surgery in the sixteenth century. The aim of this work is to provide the first critical edition of the antidotary as transmitted in both the Cambridge and Wellcome manuscripts, alongside a parallel Latin text.
