Probably the final work of the Alsace-born (and possibly Vienna-trained) physician, astrologer and geographer Fries (also known as Frisius or Phryes; d. 1530/32): his literary legacy, in which he "avows himself as an unconditional disciple of Arabism" (cf.

Show moreGulielmo Copo Basileiensi interprete, accurata cum vetustis codicibus collatione quamplurimis in locis diligentius, quam unquam antehac castigati ... Early edition of the authoritative Latin translation of Galen's treatises on the classification and causation of diseases and symptoms by Wilhelm Copp (1460-1532). The Arabs held Galen in highest regard. Hunayn ibn Ishaq's translation (ca. 830-870) of 129 of Galen's works into Arabic, in particular Galen's insistence on a rational systematic approach to medicine, set the template for Islamic medicine, which rapidly spread throughout the Arab Empire. - With the owner's inscription of "Joannem Antonium Allemand. Sedenenus" dated 1760. Some foxing and thumbing and some annotations and underscoring in text. Binding slightly rubbed, spine chipped, and lacking first endleaf. Good copy.

Per Hermannum Comitem a Neflenar, integro candori nuper restitutus autor. Strasbourg, Johannes Schott, 1532. Folio, title within five-piece woodcut border, woodcut initials in both parts, eight full-page woodcuts (one folded, having larger margins left by the binder), and numerous woodcuts in the text of Abulcasis (see below); small library stamp on verso of title, four marginal tears repaired, some worming towards the end; a pleasant copy, with striking endpapers, bound in eighteenth century German mottled sheep, large gilt arms of the Munich Court Library on covers, spine gilt in compartments. A very handsome edition of Abulcasis surgical text, “the first rational, complete and illustrated treatise on surgerY and surgical instruments” (Garrison-Morton). Many of the operative procedures and instruments described by Abulcasis do not appear in extant classical writings and may therefore be regarded as his own, or at least as being part of distinctly Arab practice. The work deals extensively with cauterization, a procedure recommended by the Prophet, and contains several chapters on dentistry and operations of the eve. gvnaecologv and the treatment of wounds and fractures. Some woodcuts illustrate many and various surgical and dental instruments and there are fullpage depictions of cauterization, amputation, the treannent of wounds from projectiles and trepanation. Illustrations to the chapter on dentistry are on pages 173177, including a woodcut of teeth strengthened with silver threads. The printer has also re-used the woodcut blocks by Johann Wechtlin for Gersdorfs Feidhuch dci Wundarizney, 1517. See Guerini, A History of Dentistry, i oq, pp. 125 et seq. fbi an extended discussion of Abulcasis dentistry and instruments. “The chief influence of Albucasis on the medical system of Europe was that his lucidity and method of presentation awakened a prepossession in favour of Arabic liter attire among the scholars of the West: the methods of Alburasis eclipsed those of Galen and maintained a dominant position in medical Europe for live hundred years Albucasis descriptions of operations are clear and particularly valuable because they portray the figures of surgical instruments used in the Middle Ages ... most of the figures of mediaeval times derived from those of Albucasis and incidentally show no knowledge of perspective” (Campbell, p. 88). First edition of Priscianus Euporzston (a go edition, printed by Froben in Basle in the same year was probably published later). Priscianus was a physician who flourished in the 4th century A.D. The first book deals with external ailments, including chapters on the ear, the nose and teeth; the second is on internal medicine and the third book, the Gynaecia, is one of the earliest monographs on obstetrics and gynaecology (see Ricci, The Genealogy of Gynaecology pp. 148149). The title-page is decorated by five woodcut strip ornaments, of which the two vertical ones are by Heinrich Vogtherr, and the three horizontal ones are by Hans Weiditz.
