| Summary: | This paper gathers the Greek/Portuguese translation of three biographies of ancient doctors: Galen of Pergamon, Hippocrates of Kos and Sextus Empiricus, following the Suda, according to Ada Adler’s edition. We aim to display the three translated lives, followed by footnotes and compiled in one place, both Hippocrates and Galen’s ones – whose contributions to the development of medicine are notorious – as well as Sextus’ one, as he was also a doctor – although made famous by his skepticism. |
