Show moreex arabico Ebn Batutae Itinerario edita ; interpretatione et annotationibus instructa per Henricum Apetz. Ibn Batutta's description of Malabar, south-western India. Original Arabic text, edited with a Latin translation and annotations by the Jena oriental scholar and entomologist Johann Heinrich Gottfried Apetz (1794-1857), a student of L. G. Kosegarten, to whom this effort is dedicated. - Ibn Battuta's famous "Rihla" (literally, "The Journey") is considered one of the most significant Mediaeval eyewitness accounts of the Middle East. Over a period of thirty years, the Muslim Moroccan explorer Abu-‘Abd Allah Muhammad ibn Batutah (1304-77?) visited most of the known Islamic world, including North Africa, the Horn of Africa, West Africa, Southern Europe and Eastern Europe in the West, to the Middle East, South Asia, Central Asia, Southeast Asia and China in the East - a distance surpassing his near-contemporary Marco Polo. He journeyed more than 75,000 miles, a figure unsurpassed by any individual explorer until the coming of the Steam Age some 450 years later, and is considered one of the greatest travellers of all time. After returning home from his travels in 1354, Ibn Battuta dictated an account of his journeys to Ibn Juzayy, a scholar whom he had previously met in Granada. The account is the only source for Ibn Battuta's adventures. For centuries his book was obscure, even within the Muslim world, but in the early 19th century extracts were published in German and English based on manuscripts discovered in the Middle East, containing abridged versions of Ibn Juzayy's Arabic text. - Slight browning and duststaining; ownership "S.

RAZAE de pestilentia libellus. Omnes nunc primum de Graeco accuratissime conversi, multique in locis restituti & emendati, per Joannem Guinterium Andernacum, Venice, Hieronymus Scotus, 1555. Small 8vo, 1 l(b.) + 16(t+index) + 494 + 1 + 1 + 1 l(b.) [with annotated leaves placed between text], with woodcut device on title and at colophon; several fine woodcut initials; old, faint library stamp on title; an interleaved copy with copious early annotations in red and brown ink; contemporary vellum; inscribed by the annotator "Friderici Sebizii sum Nisseni" in red ink on title, and "Emptus Weimar A0 1571 Mense Octo ..." (Bought at Weimar October 1571) at foot.A fine, extensively annotated copy of Alexander Trallianus' chief work, with Rhazes' De pestilentia appended. De pestilentia is generally known under the title Liber de variolis et morbillis (Kitab al-Jadari wa-l-hasba). In it Rhazes distinguished for the first time between smallpox and measles, and this work is considered to be a masterpiece of Muslim medicine.Born in the sixth century A. D. in Lydia in Asia Minor, Alexander travelled extensively, finally settling in Rome to practice as a physician. His Twelve Books is a general work on pathology and therapy of disease, based on practical experience. His work was available in numerous Greek and Latin translations, and was much consulted by Arabic physicians.The translation from the Greek is by Guinter of Andernach, "one of the major Greek scholars of the day ... In particular he devoted his scholarship to translations of the classical writers on medicine" (DSB).The annotations by Friedrich Sebitz (or Sebisch) of Silesia, are of such a nature and so extensive, that it seems likely that he intended to publish a revised edition or commentary on Trallianus' and Rhazes' works.
