Nunc denuo accuratissime expurgata, ac duplici Avicennae textu exornata, altero antiquo, quem sequutus Arculanus; altero quem post Andreae Alpagi Belluensis castigationes Benedictus Rinius ... Cum indice locupletissimo ... Venice, heirs of Lucantonio Giunta, 1560. Folio, 1l (bin.) + 1t + 1 + 34 (index) + 380 + 2 + 1l (bin.), with woodcut printer's device on title, a more elaborate example at colophon; nineteenth-century vellum backed boards. Arcolani's is of one of the most important commentaries on that part of the Canon on fevers, itself one of the most widely studied sections of the greater work (required to be studied in the University of Bologna by a statute of 1405). First published in 1489, this was also the most frequently reprinted commentary, appearing for the last time so late as 1685 in Padua. "If the number of commentaries is any guide, the most highly valued of all the parts of the Canon used in teaching practica was Book + especially its first section of fevers ... The earliest known Latin commentary on a part of the Canon is on this section (Siraisi). Arcolani's commentary is here printed with two Latin versions of Avicenna's text, the translation of Gerard of Cremona (the text which Arcolani knew), and the translation of Andrea Alpago as corrected by Benedictus Rinius.
