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.

Show moreDouble-page engraved twin-hemispherical world map, elaborate strap work borders, armillary sphere, compass rose, galleon and sea monster, all hand-colored by a contemporary hand, French text on verso, Rumold Mercator's world map condensed his father's great world map of 1569 into double hemispherical form. It first appeared in Isaac Casaubon's edition of Strabo's Geographia (Geneva, 1587), and was then incorporated into editions of Mercator's atlas from 1595 to 1630 with the plate unchanged, also this Map engraving is a model of clarity and neatness, with typical cursive flourishes to the lettering of the sea names' (Shirley). The North Pole is illustrated as a landmass surrounding a sea from which four rivers radiate, and there is a well depicted North West passage. A huge southern continent and the bulge in the south west coast of South America indicate the influence of Gerard Mercator. Relief shown pictorially. "Duysburghi Clivorum typis aeneis."

Third incunabular edition of the principal work of Albumasar (d. 886), the Arabian mathematician and astronomer whose works exercised a profound influence upon the medieval world view in the occident. His "Flores" are probably extracted from "De magnis coniunctionibus" (cf. DSB I, 35, 1); according to Houzeau/Lancaster, no Arabic original text or manuscript is known. The woodcuts show allegories of the planets and the zodiac, illustrating this astrological florilegium. - First 3 ff. show a faint brownstain; otherwise only very insignificantly browned.

The very rare first edition of the major independents works of Umar al-Tabari, on genethlialogy and astrological interrogations, and the only works of his to be translated into Latin and published in the West. They were "repeatedly quoted by Arabic and Latin writers, and esteemed second only to the work of Mashallah and Albumasar. One point of value was probably the presentation of the doctrines of Dorotheus [of Sidon]" (Carmody). The Arabic version of Dorotheus was due to Omar Tiberiadis. The allegorical woodcut shows Jupiter enthroned presiding over Satrun and Mars, surrounded by clouds, the signs of the zodaic interspersed in the design, the sun and the moon in the top corners.
