Peri Alupias (Ancient Greek: Περὶ Ἀλυπίας, lit. 'On Consolation from Grief'), also known as De indolentia, 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.
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.
History
Although the inspiration for Galen's Peri Alupias was the fire of Rome in 192 and the loss of many of Galen's books, the genre of writing on the prevention and cures of grief date back to 5th century BC Greece with Antiphon the Sophist's Error: {{Transliteration}}: transliteration text not Latin script (pos 1) (help).
Arabic translations
There is evidence that Peri Alupias was read by Arab and Iranian philosophers, including Al-Kindi and Abu Bakr al-Razi, in the 9th and 10th centuries. A letter of Al-Kindi's, On Dispelling Sorrow, survives and a chapter of Razi's Spiritual Medicine is devoted to the topic.
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.
