COLLE, Giovanni, commentator, De cognitu difficilibus in praxi ex libello Hippocratis de insomniis, et ex libris Avenzoaris per commentaria, & sententias dilucidatas. Venice, Evangelista Deuchinus, 1628. 4to, 2l (bin.) + 1t + 1 + 3 + 4 + 5 epist. + 14 ind. + 123 + 1 Errata + 1t + 1 + 180 + 14 ind. + 1 Errat. + 1 + 2l (bind.), general title printed in red and black, separate title for the Avenzoar section in black only, both with woodcut printer's device, numerous woodcut initials; a very good copy in contemporary limp vellum, ownership inscription on front-fly-leaf recording the purchase of the book in Rome, 1630. First edition of this commentary (with the text) of Hippocrates' work on insomnia, and on selected passages from the al-Taysir of Abu Marwan ibn Zuhr. Abu Marwan's text is presented in the form of 125 "sentences," adapted from the larger work, followed by commentary. The index of diseases is divided into ailments of the head, throat, stomach, uterus, skin, and also fevers. Giovanni Colle's main claim to fame is to have published the first definite description of a blood transfusion in Methodus facile parandi incunda tuta et nova medicamenta, Venice, 1628 (Garrison-Morton 2011).

Choronologica et astronomica elementa, e Palatinae bibliothecae veteribus libris versa, expleta, & scholiis expolita. Additus est commentarius ... Autore M. Iacobo Christmanno. Frankfurt, heirs of Andrea Wechel, 1590. 8vo, lea. (bind.) + 1 tit. + 1 + 8 ((epist didicat.) + 4 (epist.) + 2 + 565 + 1 (erratte) + 2 + 2lea. (bind.), woodcut printer's device on title, repeated on verso of final blank, some passages of Greek and Arabic in text; contemporary vellum. First edition of this late sixteenth-century commentary and Latin version of al-Farghani's 'Elements', Kitab al-Jawami, based by the translator, Jacob Christmann, on Jacob Anatoli's Hebrew version of the Arabic text. "The influence of the Elements on medieval Europe is clearly attested by the existence of numerous Latin manuscrips in European libraries. References to it in medieval writers are many, and there is no doubt that it was greatly responsible for spreading knowledge of Ptolemaic astronomy, at least until this role was taken over by Sacrobosco's Sphere. But even then the Elements of Alfraganus continued to be used, and Sacrobosco's Sphere was clearly indebted to it. It was from the Elements (in Gerard's translation) the Dante derived [his] astronomical knowledge" (DSB). Kepler refers several times to Alfraganus, once, for instance, citing his measurement of the circumference of the world (Epitome, Book I, Part I). DSB, 4, 541-545; EI, II, p. 793; Sezgin, VI, 149-51. Carmody p. 116; Houzeau & Lancaster 1115 ("notes precieuses"); IA 103.684; Lalande p. 121; Wightman 157; Zinner 3368.
