Peri Alupias (

Ancient Greek: Περὶ Ἀλυπίας, lit. 'On Consolation from Grief') is a treatise by Galen composed after a massive fire in the centre of Rome in 192 AD. The original Greek text was considered lost until it was discovered in 2005 in the library of the Vlatadon Monastery in Thessaloniki by then-PhD student Antoine Pietrobelli.^[1]

Prior to its rediscovery, Peri Alupias was only known from fragmentary references and quotes in Arabic and Hebrew, and the title was mentioned in Galen's On My Own Books.[2]

History

Discovery

In 2005, Antoine Pietrobelli discovered a Galenic manuscript in the library of Vlatadon Monastery that contained four Galenic items, one of which was the entire text of Peri Alupias.^[3]
