Full-Leather. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. Second Edition. Second edition. Minor loss from corners, small paper remnant on spine head. 1719 Full-Leather. [xxiv], 765, [37] pp. Full calf, red morocco spine label, gilt titles, gilt tooled compartments, marbled endpapers. Latin text. A medical work by the Venetian physician and botanist whose descriptions of coffee and banana plants are the earliest written records in European literature. Prospero Alpinus oversaw the botanical garden at Padua, and wrote the first significant history of Egyptian medicine (see Garrison-Morton 6468). This work advocates the Methodic School of medicine of ancient Greece and Rome, which focused on treatment based on generalities of disease rather than history of individual patients.

Sono qui rappresentate per la prima volta in un trattato di botanica europeo la pianta del caffè (?), del baobab (pianta e frutto) e della banana, i cui frutti vengono descritti come assai nutrienti, profumati ma un po' pesanti per lo stomaco. Delle foglie e dei frutti si descrive la morfologia, l'utilizzo in cucina nel caso delle piante edibili, le proprietà benefiche e loro utilizzi nella preparazione di decotti. L'opera, di certo un trattato pioneristico, fu utilizzata come base sistemica per I successivi studi sulla flora egiziana.Le 49 xilografie, quasi tutte a piena pagina che illustrano piante, alberi e frutti, sono molto chiare e precise scientificamente.Il De balsamo è un approfondito trattato, anche questo in forma di dialogo, sulla materia con note storiche e scientifiche, con una illustrazione sulla pianta del balsamo, e la descrizione dei luoghi dove questa nasce, principalmente l'Egitto e l'Arabia, e i modi in cui viene utilizzata.Prospero Alpini (1553-1617), medico e botanico, ebbe l'occasione di viaggiare in Egitto quando divenne medico personale del console veneziano al Cairo, Giorgio Emo.DSB pp. 124-125In-4 ° bound in full vellum.1) pp. (36), 296, printer's mark wood-engraved on the title page, Durling 2950.Work on the medicinal properties of plants, divided into three books, which is part of the of pharmaceutical botany texts, in which plants, such as flowers and fruits, are examined from the point of view of nomenclature, the birth of the species and medical-pharmacological properties.

Alpini became professor of botany at Padua after having spent three years in Egypt" (Garrison & Morton, 6468, for the 1591 edition). At the end we can read "De medicina indorum" by Jacobus Bontius (1592-1631), first published in 1642. "Bontius was probably the first to regard tropical medicine as an independent branch of medical science. He spent the last four years of his life in the Dutche East Indies, and his book incorporates the experience he gained there. It is the first Dutch work on tropical medicine and includes the first modern descriptions of beri-beri and cholera" (G&M, 2263).

Numerose iniziali xilografiche. Tagli gialli. Seconda edizione dopo la prima del 1601 di questa opera classica del grande medico, botanico e scienziato Prospero Alpino (1553 - 1617) originario di Marostica in provincia di Vicenza. Le opere e l'attività dell'Alpino riguardarono sia la botanica che la medicina e lo resero celebre in tutta Europa tanto che Albrecht von Haller lo definì medicus et botanicus celeberrimus. L'opera qui presentata è la più celebre fra le opere mediche di Alpini ed è dedicata alla prognosi medica. Pubblicato per la prima volta a Francoforte nel 1601. L'opera, curiosamente rimase poi non più edita in forma singola fino a questa edizione del 1710. La riedizione ebbe un enorme successo tanto che poi numerose furono le ristampe settecentesche. Alpino classifica qui i fenomeni "morbosi" in genere e discute le varie modalità di prognosi. Il libro è citato da Weinberger per i suoi riferimenti all'odontoiatria. Alpini è considerato come uno dei principali ornamenti della scuola padovana. Uomo di grande cultura cercò una sintesi fra l'opera di Galeno e quella d'Ippocrate, anche se il "praesagienda" è considerato un'opera di medicina classica che prende ispirazione dalla medicina di Ippocrate. Alpino fu tra i primi a porre l'accento sugli aspetti sociali e mentali dei pazienti analizzando la diversa presenza delle malattie nei diversi strati sociali e studiando patologie non direttamente riconducibili ad aspetti fisici come l'ipocondria e altri disturbi psichici. Questa edizione è poco comune, 4 soli esemplari censiti in ICCU. Prime quattro carte uniformemente brunite ma nel complesso esemplare in ottime condizioni di conservazione.

In addition to being a notable diagnostician, Alpini was an accomplished botanist, one of the first in the 16th century to examine plants outside the context of their therapeutic uses, helping to advance the frontiers of botanical science.

Gaubius . A Classical Work in Medical Prognosis edited by Hieronymus David Gaub (1705-1780), with a foreword of Herman Boerhaave (1668-1738). Prospero Alpino (1553-1616) professor at Padua travelled through Egypt, Crete and Greec from 1580 to 1583. He was the first European writer to mention the coffee plant, which he saw at Cairo. Alpinus classifies here the morbid phenomena into genera, and discusses their prognostic value. The book is also quoted by Weinberger for its references to dentistry. The passages of Life and Death in diseases concentrates on the patient's mental state and its bearing on health as well as the usual physical and diagnostic signs. See Garrison & Morton No. 2073 (1st.Ed. 1601); Lindeboom 533; Hertzberger 238 (Boerhaave).

Venetiis : Apud haeredes Melchioris Sessae, 1601, 4°, (8), 163, (1), (17) leafs, contemporary vellum, inked titles on spine; small chip to fore-edge of upper cover, fine copy. Rare First Edition! With "H.F. Norman M.D." bookplate on front paste-down. A classical work on prognosis. Prosper Alpini (1553-1617) was well acquainted with the works of both Hippocrates and Galen and could have easily written full length studies of each physician. However, he chose instead to write this classic treatise on prognosis based on Hippocrates' writings. A comprehensive study of prognostics, Alpini placed special emphasis on the patient's mental well being and its relationship to health and included the usual physical and diagnostic signs. In addition to its appearance at Venice, the book was also published the same year at Frankfurt by Jonas Rhodius. Garrison-Morton 2194; Osler 1801 (1735 ed.); Waller 371 (1733 ed.).
