The present volume is among the earliest surviving Spanish copies all of which are extremely rare and the next readily traceable one being from 1722. Scupoli Lorenzo 1530-1610; Juan de Castaniza d. 159. Combate espiritual o Tratado de la perfeccion Christiana. Traduxolo en la lengua Espanola de la Italiana y de la Latina; y lo consagra a la Emperatriz y Reina nuestra Senora Don Damian Gonzalez del Cueto doctor en ambos derechos. Vienna Johann Baptist Schilgen 1722. A precious illustrated Spanish edition of this classic treatise on evangelical perfection through spiritual exercises Combattimento spirituale The spiritual combat with engravings by Martin Engelbrecht. This work is commonly attributed to Juan de Castaniza who is here identified in the preface. Castaniza a Benedictine monk of Ona active in Italy was known for his chronicles of the life of P. Rivadeneyra and St. Romuald. The work was written by the Italian father Lorenzo Scupoli however and translated shortly after its appearance by Castaniza into Spanish. Combate espiritual in this pocket-sized and compact duodecimo format is a handbook of devotional exercises presented in sixty-six chapters modeled after Loyola's famous text. It aims at perfecting the soul through prayer meditation and examination of the conscience. It is thus a guide for the conquest of the spirit over unruly passions the senses and conscious acts offering a method for self-regulation leading to virtue and salvation. Indeed it prescribes the imitation of Christ's life through empathic contemplation on the Passion assisted by the text and images. The stirring devotional image of the Crucifixion engraved by Engelbrecht 1684-1756 depicts the cross as the fountain of life "apud me est fons vitae"; Christ's blood pours into the cups of his disciples who stand at his feet. The engraving is appropriate for the work a visual experience provoking empathy for Christ through inward meditation and complete sensitization through reflection on the image. The frontispiece also by Engelbrecht depicts Christ as the exemplar of complete virtue. An unsigned engraving of St. Francis de Sales 1567-1622 accompanies a short elegy by this great ascetic bishop of Geneva who endorsed in his spiritual teachings the mortification of the senses will and mind for the sake of perfection. The more simple depiction of St. Francis de Sales is likely produced by a different engraver as Engelbrecht's compositions are here characterized by fully-modeled figures and atmospheric effects through the use of fine linework. Engelbrecht was the brother of Christian Engelbrecht 1672-1735. These well-known printsellers and engravers were dominant figures in Augsburg at this time and are remembered for their portrait studies and their landscape religious and allegorical illustrations. Martin is also noted for his engravings used in perspective boxes or peepshows. Scupoli's work makes its first appearance in the Italian in Venice in 1589. By the mid- seventeenth century this very popular devotional work was frequently republished in German and Latin. There are no traces of the first Spanish edition which must have appeared shortly after the Italian edition. This present illustrated edition a late Spanish translation of this important work reproduces the text as it originally appeared in Castaniza's translation. All Spanish translations of this text remain very rare. This popular meditative manual produced in this small format for a large and pious public instructively suggests the ways in which its readers responded to the text and images. It is an early publication from the press of Schilgen printer to the university of Vienna. A nice copy of this very important and scarce devotional work in Spanish.

Francisco Bellini lived from 1643 and 1704 was an Italian physician and anatomist who did pioneering work in nephrology as early as the age of 19 when a paper he published while a student at the University of Pisa "Anatomical Exercise on the Structure and Function of the Kidney" presented for the first time Bellini's findings that "the kidney consists of an immense number of tiny canals". Britannica. He also was an early proponent of the value of urinalysis as a tool to arrive at a sound diagnosis. Bellini later became official court physician to Duke Cosimo III and Pope Clement XI.

De urinis et pulsibus de missione sanguinis de febribus de morbis capitis et pectoris. 4to. 20 606 i.e. 608pp. Woodcut ornaments. Bologna: ex typographia HH. Antonij Pisarrii 1683. 216 x 161 mm. Vellum c. 1683 title hand-inked on spine. Leaf Aaaa2 torn and repaired at an early date without loss of text otherwise a fine copy. Presentation copy from the author inscribed at the foot of the title: "All' Illmo Conte Tommaso della Gherardesca. l'Autore." </p> <p>First Edition inscribed by the author. This is the first inscribed copy of a major seventeenth century medical classic that has been on the market in more than a decade. Bellini professor of anatomy and medical theory at Pisa was one of the Italian founders of iatromechanics a system that framed physiologic events such as the circulation of the blood in terms of mathematical and physical principles. Bellini's De urinis et pulsibus represents the first important attempt by an Italian scientist to systematically apply iatromechanics to medical theory. "William Harvey's theory of the circulation was of fundamental importance to Bellini and other proponents of iatromechanism. Bellini asserted that good health depended on optimal function of the circulation of the blood and that disease was a manifestation of an inefficient circulation. Rejecting ancient humoral pathology he viewed blood as a physical fluid with specific properties that could be interpreted in terms of mathematical and physical principles. . . . Bellini emphasized that disease was often due to alterations in the elasticity or 'tone' of the solids or in the density of the fluids which hindered their motion. This in turn could cause local congestion or stagnation. Bellini's enthusiastic support of therapeutic bleeding reflected this pathophysiologic concept. He tried to prove that this phlebotomy increased the velocity of the circulation thereby washing away 'morbid matter' and restoring health" Fye pp. 181-82. </p> <p>In the book's section on diseases of the chest Bellini reported "several forms of heart disease especially of the syncopal type . . . in his book De urinis et pulsibus Bellini discusses the state of the coronary arteries and admits that the condition which he calls 'pressio' is dangerous and may cause the contraction of the heart to be abolished p. 541. He also has in mind external pressure by tumors fat and so on. However an intra-arterial coronary impediment of blood-flow by calcification was clearly described by this author. Bellini reported of a patient who died of a condition similar to the clinical picture of coronary disease as we now understand it in whose coronary arteries he found a 'stone.' It seems quite reasonable to deduce that Bellini saw in the post-mortem a coronary occlusion" Leibowitz History of Coronary Heart Disease p. 71. </p> <p>Bellini's work is also important in the history of urology as it marks the first important contribution to the chemical analysis of urine. Recognizing the value of urine as a diagnostic aid Bellini insisted on its chemical analysis in pathologic conditions. </p> <p>Bellini presented this copy of De urinis et pulsibus to Tommaso della Gherardesca 1654-1721 a distinguished member of an important Tuscan aristocratic family and as such a likely patron. Gherardesca was appointed bishop of Fiesole in 1702 and archbishop of Florence in 1703; he also founded the Seminario Maggiori di Firenze in 1712. The rarity of this inscription by Bellini cannot be overestimated. This is the first inscribed book by Bellini we have seen on the market in more than 40 years and it is also the first inscribed copy of a major seventeenth century classic on any aspect of medicine that we have seen on the market in more than a decade possibly longer. In addition this copy is clearly in the original binding in which it was presented and with the exception of one leaf which was inexplicably torn through and repaired the copy is in fine even very fine condition for a work of this period</p> . <p>Garrison-Morton 762.1 4162.

Collation: 16 576 70 p. engraved frontispiece and 36 woodblock prints in text or singly. The frontispiece has allegorical figures in a garden with arms of the University of Bologna. Bottom of spine repaired with new vellum. The internal condition is very good. This is a very scarce title from an Italian botanist and brother of naturalist Batolomeo Ambrosini. He succeeded his brother to the chair of botany at the University of Bolognia and also assumed direction of the botanical garden. His first work was Hortus Bononia studiosirum consistus which was followed posthumously with the Phytologiae offered here. The Phytologiae was intended to be the first of a two-volume dictionary of plants with the second to be on trees. The second volume was never completed. The woodcuts in this work on herbaceous plants were done by Tinti and provide a good working illustration for the plant described in the text. This very scarce work comes from a period of great botanical study and characterization in Italy. The genus Ambrosinia is named after the two brothers.
