Коллекциоки на рисунках и наркотиках Индии
Коллекциоки на простых и лекарствах Индии ( португальцы : коллоквиумы простых и лекарственных препаратов и лекарственных вещей ) [ А ] является работой большой оригинальности, опубликованной в Гоа 10 апреля 1563 года Гарсией де Ортой , португальским еврейским врачом и натуралистом, пионером тропической медицины .
Схема коллоквизий
[ редактировать ]Работа Гарсии де Орты находится в формате диалога. Он состоит из серии из 57 разговоров между Гарсией де Ортой и воображаемым коллегой, Руано, который посещает Индию и хочет узнать больше о своих лекарствах, специях и других натуральных продуктах. Случайные участники диалога, очевидно, настоящие люди:
- Антония, славянка, исследование Гарсии де Орты
- Несколько неназванных рабов
- Д. Джеронимо, брат страдающего холерой
- Dimas Bosque, коллега, который также вносит вклад в предисловие в книгу
- Малупа, индийский врач
In general the drugs are considered in alphabetical order, but with exceptions. Each of the substances that comes up for discussion is dealt with fairly systematically: its identification and names in earlier texts, its source, its presence in trade, its medical and other uses. Many case histories are mentioned. The discussion of Asiatic cholera is so complete and circumstantial that it constitutes a classic of clinical description.[1]
Digressions, more or less relevant, deal with Indian politics, the significance of China, the rivalries between Portugal and Spain in the Spice Islands. There are anecdotes about elephants, cobras, and mongoose.

Authorities cited
[edit]"Don't try and frighten me with Diocorides or Galen," Garcia de Orta says to Ruano, "because I am only going to say what I know to be true."[4] Though unusually ready to differ from earlier authorities on the basis of his own observations, Garcia was well read in the classics of medicine. As a sample, the following authors (listed here in the spellings preferred by Garcia) are regularly cited in the first 80 folia of the Colóquios:
- Greek: Hipocrate, Teofrasto, Dioscoride, Galeno
- Classical Latin: Celso, Plinio
- Arabic: Rasis, Avicena, Mesue, Serapion
- Medieval Latin: Gerardo Cremonensis, Matheus Silvatico
- Later Latin: Andreas Belunensis, Andrés Laguna (aka Tordelaguna), Menardo, Mattioli (aka Matheolo Senense), Antonio Musa, Ruelio and Garcia's younger contemporary Amato Lusitano
Garcia also occasionally quotes Aristotele, Averroe, Plutarco, Valerio Probo, Sepulveda, Francisco de Tamara, Vartamano, Vesalio; also Autuario, a medieval Greek author known to him through a Latin translation by Ruelio.
Garcia felt able to differ from these authorities, as he very frequently does, because he was a long way from Europe. "If I was in Spain [the term "Spain", derived from Hispania, was in his time the geographical designation for the entirety of the Iberian Peninsula that includes Portugal] I wouldn't dare to say anything against Galen and the Greeks;" this remark has been seen as the real key to the Colóquios.[5]
The original edition of the Colóquios
[edit]Goa was by no means a major publishing centre, although the first printing press in India was introduced there in 1556; in the words of historian Charles Ralph Boxer, the original edition of the Colóquios "probably contains more typographical errors than any other book ever issued from a printing-press". The errata consisted of twenty pages and noted that it was probably incomplete.[6] Garcia's printer is thought to have been João de Endem, who began his career with João Quinquenio de Campania.[7]
The original publication states very carefully the extent of its official backing. The title page carries the approval of the viceroy and of the local inquisitor "Alexos Diaz Falcam". The book opens with several commendatory letters and prefaces. Among these preliminaries, the one that is of most interest now is a poem, the first published verses by Garcia's friend Luís de Camões, now recognised as Portugal's national poet.
Many of the printing errors and authorial oversights are silently corrected in the 1872 reprint, which, although it follows the original page-for-page, is not a facsimile.
Reception of the Colóquios
[edit]Garcia de Orta was the first European to catalogue Indian medicinal herbs in their native habitat. His book was rapidly acknowledged as indispensable by scientists across Europe. Translations in Latin (then the scientific lingua franca) and other languages were made. The Latin translation, a slight abridgement dropping the dialogue format, but adding woodcut illustrations and editorial commentary, was by Charles de l'Écluse (Carolus Clusius). Clusius acquired his copy of the Colóquios at Lisbon on 28 December 1564,[8] and evidently continued to work on it all his life. In its final (fifth) edition, his translation forms a part of his great collaborative work, Exoticorum libri decem (1605).
Unluckily for the fame of Garcia da Orta's book, large parts of it were included with minimal acknowledgement in a similar work published in Spanish in 1578 by Cristóbal Acosta, Tractado de las drogas y medicinas de las Indias orientales ("Treatise of the drugs and medicines of the East Indies"). Da Costa's work was widely translated into vernacular languages and eventually lessened the fame of Garcia de Orta except among the few who were aware of the latter's originality.
There is an English translation of the Colóquios by Sir Clements Markham (1913) which included an introductory biography.
