Abstract

Giovanni Mascellini (1612–1675), a Padua-trained physician from Pesaro, was a well-connected seventeenth-century healer at the Ottoman court, whose career transcended political, religious, and linguistic boundaries. He sought to solidify his legacy through intellectual pursuits, notably by authoring a Latin treatise entitled Artis Medicae … Summarium (1673). He chose to publish in Vienna rather than the Ottoman Empire to ensure higher quality and broader distribution, yet nevertheless dedicated the work to Ottoman grand vizier Fazıl Ahmed Pasha. Mascellini’s story illustrates that the Ottoman medicine in the seventeenth century was not subjected to a one-way influence from Europeans, but rather that the nature of the transfer was bilateral, allowing the Ottomans to contribute to medical printing in Europe.
