Abstract:
First only as a defensive city, Saragossa became during the 11th century an intellectual center since scholar rulers encouraged its development. Medical sciences belonged to the promoted disciplines. Four talented physicians exerted their skills in Saragossa: Al-Kattanî, Ibn Djanîh, Ibn Bâdjdja and Ibn Biklârish. Their drugs conceptions and understandings about drugs as well as Andalusian pharmacological specificities will be discussed here thanks to actual examples extract from their medical works.
