Summary "De Graecorum Medicis Publicis" by Rudolf Pohl is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work delves into the establishment and practices of public physicians in ancient Greece, examining their development from antiquity through the Roman era. The likely topic of the text is the evolution of public medicine within Greek society, focusing on notable figures and practices associated with this profession. The opening of the dissertation introduces the concept of public physicians, illustrating their historical significance and societal role in ancient Greece. Pohl references classic sources such as Herodotus to demonstrate that the institution of public medicine was well established by the 5th century BCE. He offers insights into the early practices of public physicians, the circumstances of their employment, and their contributions to public healthcare.
