Abstract

Najstarije zapise o primjeni ljekovitih droga, u svrhu liječenja, nalazimo u medicini drevnih civilizacija. Važnu su ulogu u europskoj srednjovjekovnoj medicini imali svećenici. Oni su u samostanima sastavljali ljekaruše, rukopisne zbirke s receptima za izradu lijekova i liječenje različitih bolesti ljudi i životinja.
Ovaj diplomski rad daje uvid u materiu medicu pet ljekaruša pisanih na području Hrvatske od 17. do 19. stoljeća. Istraženi su recepti s biljnim drogama koje nalazimo u našim krajevima i najčešće se spominju u hrvatskim ljekarušama: bršljan, đumbir, gospina trava, kadulja, kamilica, kopriva, ricinus, rosopas, ružmarin, sljez bijeli, sljez crni, smokva. Napravljena je usporedba odabranih recepata s Dioskoridovim djelom De materia medica u kojem su detaljno opisani svi lijekovi antičkoga doba. Većina je istraženih recepata, koji su preuzeti iz toga djela, tijekom prijepisa doživjela nadopune i izmjene. Neke od obrađenih biljnih droga nalaze primjenu i u suvremenoj fitoterapiji.

Selected folk recipes are those with medical plants that are the most common and are most often mentioned in Croatian manuscripts: ivy, ginger, lady grass, sage, chamomile, nettle, ricinus, chelidonium, rosemary, marsh-mallow, malva and fig. Comparison has been made between selected recipes form Discorides´s De materia medica in which all medicines from antique time were described in detail. Most of selected recipes taken from that book where supplemented and modified. Some of selected medical plants founded their use also in contemporary phytotherapy.
