De mahad, i[d est] de dispositione seu loco, ad quem revertitur homo vel anima eius post mortem. Aphorismi de anima. De diffinitionibus & quaesitis. De divisione scientiarum. Ab Andrea Alpago Bellunensi ex arabico in latinum versa. Cum expositionibus eiusdem Andreae colectis ab auctoribus Arabicis. Venice, heirs of Lucantonio Guiunta, 1546. 8vo, 1l (bin.) + 1t + 3 + 390 + 1 + 1 + 1l (bin), with woodcut printer's device on title, repeated at colophon; a very good copy in modern stiff vellum with ties. First edition of Alpago's translation (De anima had only once appeared separately before, at Pavia in 1484, in the translation of Johannes Hispalensis and Domingo Gundisalvo). Alpago made his name through his translations of Avicenna. His eminent version of the Canon went through numerous editions, but this book and his other trnaslations appeared in one edition only. "Avicenna insisted on the Soul's individual immortality. To begin with, he held that the immaterial is incorruptible. Moreover he was convinced not only of the soul's immateriality but also of his individuality. He argued for both these points simultaneously: Wehen one refers to himself as 'I', this cannot be a reference to his body. If a man were to come into being fully mature and rational but suspended in space so that he was totally unaware of his physical circumstances, he would still be certain of one thing - his own existence as an individual self" (The encyclopedia of philosophy Die Vorlage enth. insgesamt ...

Folio, 1 l(b.) + 1t + 1 + 14(cont.) + 508 + 1 l(b.), title printed in red and black, with large woodcut of an oriental scholar at his reading desk, within a magnificent woodcut border, at the top Aesculapius (Greek god of medicine) surrounded by putti n a frieze, the architrave supported by two pairs of double columns, at the foot a row of half-length portraits of Mesue, Avicenna, Hippocrates, Galen and Rhazes; printed in double columns, two elaborate woodcut initials on first page; old vellum with new endpapers. An extremely rare edition of Books 1-12 of Rhazes's Continens (al-Hawi), the largest and most important of his works. "The arrangement of the subject-matter in al-Hawi gives the impression that the author probably had several study-files, each containing quires for copying notes from reference books. He did not neglect to record even those opinions which seemed false to him, invariable adding his private comments and personal experiences ... Each of al-Razi's medical study files was reserved for notes on a certain topic [and from these he] selected subject-matter for his other written works" (A. Z. Iskandar, Religion, learning and science in the Abbasid period, pp. 373-74). Durling 3316: there is no copy in the British Library or in any of the Libraries of the University of Cambridge, it is not in Sander and not in Choulant, nor in any of the medical catalogues usually referred to: Wellcome, Bird, Parkinson and Lumb, Waller, Hunterian, Osler, Royal College of Physicians.
