Abstract
This article is a first presentation of the results obtained by reviewing the manuscripts of Arnau de Vilanova’s medical
works in the development of the Arnau BD database, in which the codices of the corpus attributed to this medieval physician are
collected. Our review has allowed not only to gather the previously known witnesses of Arnau’s medical writings in a single resource,
but also to discover 36 manuscripts containing one or more of his texts that had gone unnoticed in the prior scholarship
on this author.
