Venise, Otnus de Luna, Papiensis Folio 104pp, 2 columns in each page, 68 or 69 lines, partial damage to the last two pages , upper part of spine chipped 17th century Vellum, Hieronymus Surianus 10 january 1497 An extreemly rare edition of incunable work of islamic medicine of the XII century. Abu Marwan Abdul Malik Ibn Zuhr (1113- 62 or 1199) was known to mediaeval Europe as Avenzoar and Abhomeron, and came of an illustious Arabian family who setteled in spain earlyin the tenth century. he was born at sevilee. and studied medicine by his father (who held the Ca"nn of Avecenna in small esttem) and achieved great fame as a physician in spain & North Africa. One of the Foremost thinkers of islam, he was opposed to astrology and medicine mysticism; the mysticism tha he was opposed to may be said to have survived until recent times. and his exemplified in the dying decleration of a vererinary surgeon who when pressed for the secret of his success in surgery said; " i biles my tools" Avnzoar who took a great intrest in materia medica and pharmacy, was opposed to logical distinctions" (Donald Campbell " Arabian Medicine and its infuluance on the Middle ages" pp 90-91) "Ibn Zuhr was the first to write acareful description of mediastinal abcess from which he probably suffered. He describes pericarditis, both wet and dry, and diffrentiates them from other lung conditions. while in jail he wrote a careful description of cancer of the stomach from wich his cell mate was suffering" (kahairallah, A." outline of Arabic contributions to medicine" pp 126) Ibn Zuhr's works were translated to latin and were printed repeatedly. His great influance over medieval Europe is seen from his great influance over Arnold of villanova and from his adoption as a text-book in the universities of Europe for several centures.

The Taysīr (Abhumeron) has been translated from the Arabic of Ibn Zuhr into Hebrew by Jacobus Hebraeus and from that version into Latin by Patavinus in 1281. -- Cf. Explicit (leaf g2r). The Kitāb al-Kullīyāt (Colliget) is edited by Hieronymus Surianus. -- Cf. Explicit (leaf s2v). The translation is probably that of Jacob Bonacosa. Contains two tracts: Taysīr fī al-mudāwah wa-al-tadbīr (Abhumeron) by Ibn Zuhr (leaves a1-g6r), which includes his Antidotarium (leaves g2r-g5r), and Kitāb al-Kullīyāt (Colliget) by Averroës (leaves g6v-s3). Goff and Rhodes give the title as: 'Liber Teisir, sive Rectificatio medicationis et regiminis. Antidotarium.'

[Hrsg. Petrus Rochabonella.] [Korr. Prosdocimus Mutius.]. Canon medicinae. [Strasbourg, the R-Printer (Adolf Rusch), before 1473]. A beautifully illuminated single leaf from one of the earliest (if not the earliest) complete printings of the Canon, in the translation of Gerard of Cremona. The earliest dated edition of the complete Canon was printed in Milan, with the date 12 February 1473 at the colophon of Book III. This edition is not dated, but is most often described as "before 1473." The text of this leaf begins with the end of Book III, fen 7. The illuminated initial (G) marks the beginning of fen 8, and the text ends in the middle of Cap. 12 of the same fen. The subjects are the teeth, the gums, and the lips. This leaf was originally part of the now fragmentary copy in Aberdeen University Library (William Smith Mitchell, Catalogue of the Incunabula in Aberdeen University Library, 1968, No. 5). Other single leaves from the same copy are in Caius College and St. John's College, Cambridge, and Cambridge University Library. At one time the volume was in the library of Coventry School, a pencil note on this leaf giving a seventeenth-century date for the provenance. RARE: ISTC records only the British Library and John Rylands Library copies in the UK (besides the fragmentary copy in Aberdeen and the Cambridge leaves mentioned ab ove (except St. John's College); in North America only two complete copies (Harvard and Pierpont Morgan Library). The illumination in the copy in Aberdeen University, and hence in our leaf, is English and strictly contemporary, which makes it interesting to speculate on its original provenance. Incunabules illuminated in England are rare.
