2、毕生知识奉献于医学科学的人， 尊重病人，尊重医师尽己所能治愈病人的承诺。Who was Hippocrates, and Did he Write the Oath? 2. For a man considered by many to be the Father of Medicine, little is known about Hippocrates of Cos. He lived circa 460-380 BC, and was the contemporary of Socrates as well as a practising physician. He was certai

Over 60 treatises of medicine, called the Hippocratic Corpus have been attributed to him; however, these treatises had conflicting contents and were written some time between 510 and 300 BC, and therefore could not all hav

8、the dictates of Hippocratic medicine, was all but forgotten in the West. It was through the perseverance of the spirit of inquiry in the East that the tenets of Hippocratic medicine - and the Hippocratic Oath - survived this period of deterioration, notably through the writings of Arabian authoritie

The knowledge of Greek medicine was later revived in the Christian West through the Latin translations of both these Arabic works and the original Greek texts.作为代表当时希腊观点的唯一一小部分，希波克拉底誓言首次被写时并没有受到很好的欢迎。然而,在那远古时代结束时,医生们开始遵循誓言的条款。当科学医学在罗马帝国衰亡后遭受一显而易见的衰退时，这个誓言,连同希波克拉底医学的指示命令，在西方都几乎被遗忘是有可能的

10、。正是通过东方坚持不懈的探索精神，使得希波克拉底医学信念和希波克拉底宣言得以在这一恶化的时期幸存下来，尤其是通过阿拉伯当局在医学上的著作。希腊医学 知识而后在西方基督教复活是通过了阿拉伯文论著和原始希腊文的拉丁文翻译。5.
