Yhteenveto:This chapter explores the various ways in which Galen was revived in the works of Byzantine medical authors by concentrating on literary output from the seventh/eighth century to the fall of Constantinople to the Ottoman Turks in 1453. It is divided into three sections. The first focuses on texts dealing with Christian anthropology; next is the section which groups texts offering practical instructions in diagnostics and therapeutics; the last section deals with three exceptional cases deemed worthy of being treated separately.
