Abstract

In this article, we analyze the naturo-philosophical method of Galen, which established uniformity between the ideal and realistic. Galen’s method is reviewed from the perspective of the correlation between ideal and natural principles, emphasizing their inherent equal consistency. Such a philosophical approach allows Galen to not only determine and research the most general regularities but also to implement them into practice, including in medicine.

We will also examine the ethical method of Galen, who claims that only by ridding oneself of all passions and imperfections can a thinker begin to comprehend the highest truths, and a physician effectively treat a patient.
