Title within ornamental woodcut border. Place of publication and printer's name from colophon on leaf b5v. Colophon reads: Argentorati apud Ioannem Knoblouchum iuniorem. xxiiij. Augusti Anno Christi M.D.XXX. Signatures: a⁴ b⁶ (b6 blank). First edition of this polemic in defence of Avicenna, whose achievement the author ranks higher than anything in Western medicine. 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. NDB). - Slight waterstaining to gutter; one double-leaf loosened; final blank shows tear to edge. Exceedingly rare; no copy in auction records since 1950.
